background: supplementation usage approach and its effect on fatigue retarding had been focused on by athletes and coaches. the aim of this study was to compare the effect of two acute and chronic loading of sodium bicarbonate supplement on lactate and inflammatory indices after exhaustive aerobic activity in active men. method s : 10 active men were selected and assigned to experimental group....

Background: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors reduce the risk, and progression, of diabetic kidney disease. We hypothesized that sodium-glucose could similarly improve microvascular complication neuropathy.

The kinetics of sodium-stimulated phosphate flux and phosphate-stimulated sodium flux in human red cells have been previously described (Shoemaker, D.G., C.A. Bender, and R.B. Gunn. 1988. J. Gen. Physiol. 92:449-474). However, despite the identification of multiple isoforms in three gene families (Timmer, R.T., and R.B. Gunn. 1998. Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 274:C757-C769), the molecular bas...

The role of isothiocyanate (ITC) in blocking epithelial restitution after injury and in the recovery of round wounds was examined in the ex vivo guinea pig stomach and in rat gastric mucosal-1 (RGM1) cells, respectively. For this, recovery of transepithelial electrical resistance and morphology after injury or the closure of round wounds was evaluated in the presence of 4,4'-diisothiocyanatosti...

This study investigated the effects of creatine and sodium bicarbonate coingestion on mechanical power during repeated sprints. Nine well-trained men (age = 21.6 ± 0.9 yr, stature = 1.82 ± 0.05 m, body mass = 80.1 ±12.8 kg) participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, counterbalanced, crossover study using six 10-s repeated Wingate tests. Participants ingested either a placebo (0.5 g·kg(...

Sodium fluxes across the isolated rabbit corneal endothelium were measured as a function of ambient pH and bicarbonate concentrations. At pH 7, the net sodium flux (J endo str net) was effectively obliterated at all bicarbonate concentrations, relative to controls at pH 7.5. At pH 8, the net sodium flux was obliterated at 5 mM bicarbonate, was unchanged at 25 mM bicarbonate, and was enhanced at...

PURPOSE This in vitro experiment studied the effects of sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide on the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans through analysis with a spectrophotometer. METHODS The growth of S. mutans was analyzed using seven different environments. Twelve wells in each of the seven rows of a multi-well plate were used to incubate the test materials. In combinations of 10 m...

Cl(-) efflux induces depolarization and contraction of smooth muscle cells. This study was undertaken to explore the role of Cl(-) flux in histamine-induced contraction in the rabbit basilar artery. Male New Zealand White rabbits (n = 16) weighing 1.8-2.5 kg were euthanized by an overdose of pentobarbital sodium. The basilar arteries were removed for isometric tension recording. Histamine produ...
