We investigated if carbohydrate (CHO) availability could affect the excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) after a single supramaximal exercise bout. Five physically active men cycled at 115% of peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2 peak) until exhaustion with low or high pre-exercise CHO availability. The endogenous CHO stores were manipulated by performing a glycogen-depletion exercise protocol 48 ...

One hr of exposure to bleomycin (100 jug/ml) during the plateau phase caused a 10-fold greater decrease in the survival fraction of Chinese hamster ovary cells than was caused by bleomycin treatment during the exponential growth period. One hr of exposure to l,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-l-nitrosourea (25 Mg/ml) had no effect on the survival fraction of cells treated in the exponential growth period; ...

BACKGROUND It is recommended that endurance athletes consume carbohydrate (CHO) supplements, providing 6-8% CHO concentration, during exercise > 60 minutes to improve athletic performance. Recently research has compared carbohydrate-protein (CHO-P) supplementation to the traditionally used CHO supplementation during endurance exercise, following these supplementation recommendations, in control...

SUMMARY Adriamycin is extremely toxic to Chinese hamster ovary cells in relatively low drug concentrations. The survival response of asynchronous populations of cells is biphasic (ii 1 , D0 = 0.2 .tg/ml for 1 hr in the most sensitive population; D0 9.4 pg/ml for 1 hr in the more resistant population). Cells in mitosis and early S phase are most sensitive to the drug; G1 and late-S-phase cells e...

The object of the present paper is to derive a property of certain meromorphic functions in the punctured unit disk. Our main theorem contains certain sufficient conditions for starlikeness and close-to-convexity of order α of meromorphic functions. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 30C45.

To determine whether the relative utilization of exogenous carbohydrate (CHO(exo)) differs between children and adults, substrate utilization during 60 min of cycling at 70% peak O(2) uptake was studied in 12 pre- and early pubertal boys (9.8 +/- 0.1 yr) and 10 men (22.1 +/- 0.5 yr) on two occasions. Subjects consumed either a placebo or a (13)C-enriched 6% CHO(exo) beverage (total volume per t...

Two types of serological assays are commonly used for the assessment of pertussis vaccine-induced antibodies; the Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO cell) assay and the immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti pertussis toxin (PT) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (IgG anti-PT ELISA). Recently, both the techniques have been modified to improve performance with sera with interfering activity (CHO cell assay) or...

DNA lesions, cytotoxicity, and cellular uptake of CaCrO4 were compared in Chinese hamster ovary, in mouse embryo fibroblast C3H10T1/2, and in human osteosarcoma cells. The concentration of CaCrO4 that reduced colony formation by 50% was 2- or 3-fold less in human osteosarcoma cells than in C3H10T1/2 or Chinese hamster ovary cells. Alkaline elution studies showed that CaCrO4 induced DNA single s...

For the first time, a patient with asymptomatic QT interval prolongation was found to carry missense mutation c.277G>A (p.Val93Ile) in KCNJ2 gene, described previously only as cause of familial form atrial fibrillation. The corresponding amino acid substitution introduced into plasmid encoding Kir2.1 channel and mutant gene expressed Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) evaluate effect on IK1 c...

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...
