The authors investigated the effects of postexercise carbohydrate-protein-antioxidant (CHO+P+A) ingestion on plasma creatine kinase (CK), muscle soreness, and subsequent cross-country race performance. Twenty-three runners consumed 10 mL/kg body weight of CHO or CHO+P+A beverage immediately after each training session for 6 d before a cross-country race. After a 21-d washout period, subjects re...

Chinese hamster ovary cells have been treated with bleomycin at various stages in the cell cycle. Mitotic cells, which exhibit least survival, show the greatest amount of DNA strand breakage and a marked inhibition of DNA replication in the subsequent S phase. Strand-rejoining experiments suggest that this is primarily due to differences in the amount of damage produced in the DNA but does not ...

Pai was a keynote speaker at the first Korean symposium held at North Park College in Chicago in October 1991. As a child of an immigrant, her experiences are similar to those of many other young Korean Americans who live in a bicultural world of Korean and American cultures. Seung-Hui Cho, the massacre killer at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, was one of the young Korean Americans. He was born...

An efficient base catalysed approach to the synthesis of thiochromans/chromenes from allenylphosphonates (and an allenoate) and substrates having SH/OH and CHO groups at appropriate positions has been developed. Several azo-linked chromenes that are bright red pigments are also synthesized. This methodology involves the domino reactions of Michael addition and subsequent cyclisation by intramol...

In Chinese hamster ovary cells and in normal and transformed rat embryonic fibroblasts, survival as a function of time at 42.4 degrees was dependent upon the rate of heating from 37 degrees to 42.4 degrees. Unexpectedly, the untransformed rat fibroblasts were more heat sensitive than were the transformed cells, and the protective effect of slow rates of heating upon survival at 42.4 degrees was...

background:the premature termination of high producer clones, which will be killed due to cell proliferation and proteins production antagonism, is one of the basic drawback in recombinant proteins technology. furtheremore, it is supposed some toxic proteins like interferon which we intended to clone and express, inhibit host cells’ proliferation. so, it is necessary to tightly control ifn-γ pr...

The bioCRACK process is a promising technology for the production of second generation biofuels. During this process, biomass is pyrolized in vacuum gas oil and converted into gaseous, liquid and solid products. In cooperation with the Graz University of Technology, the liquid phase pyrolysis process was investigated by BDI - BioEnergy International AG at an industrial pilot plant, fully integr...

Treatment of exponentially growing Chinese hamster ovary cells with bleomycin causes a dose-dependent decrease in cell survival due to DNA damage. This lethal effect can be potentiated by the addition of a nonlethal dose of the anticalmodulin drug N-(4-aminobutyl)-5-chloro-2-naphthalenesulfonamide ( W13 ) but not its inactive analog N-(4-aminobutyl)-2-naphthalenesulfonamide ( W12 ). By preventi...

BACKGROUND "Sleep-low" consists of a sequential periodization of carbohydrate (CHO) availability-low glycogen recovery after "train high" glycogen-depleting interval training, followed by an overnight-fast and light intensity training ("train low") the following day. This strategy leads to an upregulation of several exercise-responsive signaling proteins, but the chronic effect on performance h...
