Developmental changes in the expression of creatine synthesizing enzymes and creatine transporter in a precocial rodent, the spiny mouse (2009)

Ireland, Zoe, Russell, Aaron P, Wallimann, Theo, Walker, David W, Snow, Rod

Abstract Background Creatine synthesis takes place predominately in the kidney and liver via a two-step process involving AGAT ( L -arginine:glycine amidinotransferase) and GAMT (guanidinoacetate...

Maternal creatine : does it reach the fetus and improve survival after an acute hypoxic episode in the spiny mouse (Acomys cahirinus)? (2008)

Ireland, Zoe, Dickinson, Hayley, Snow, Rod, Walker, David W.

Objective We hypothesized that elevating creatine in the maternal diet would reach fetal and placental tissues and improve fetal survival after acute hypoxia at birth.Study DesignPregnant spiny mice...

Effects of endurance training status and sex difference on Na+, K+-pump mRNA expression, content and maximal activity in human skeletal muscle (2007)

Murphy, K.T., Aughey, R., Petersen, Aaron, Clark, S., Goodman, Craig, Hawley, John, ...

Aim: This study investigated the effects of endurance training status and sex differences on skeletal muscle Na+,K+-pump mRNA expression, content and activity. Methods: Forty-five endurance-trained...

µ- Calpain and calpain-3 are not autolyzed with exhaustive exercise in humans (2006)

Murphy, Robyn M., Snow, Rod, Lamb, Graham D.

µ-calpain and calpain-3 are Ca2+-dependent proteases found in skeletal muscle. Autolysis of calpains is observed using Western blot analysis as the cleaving of the full-length proteins to...

The influence of allopurinol on urinary purine loss after repeated sprint exercise in man (2005)

Stathis, Christos G., Carey, Michael F., Snow, Rod

The influence of allopurinol on urinary purine loss was examined in 7 active male subjects (age 24.9 ± 3.0 years, weight 82.8 ± 8.3 kg, V˙o2peak 48.1 ± 6.9 mL ·...

Depressed Na+-K+-ATPase activity in skeletal muscle at fatigue is correlated with increased Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA expression following intense exercise (2005)

Petersen, A. C., Murphy, K. T., Snow, Rod, Leppik, J. A., Aughey, R. J., Garnham, Andrew, ...

We investigated whether depressed muscle Na+-K+-ATPase activity with exercise reflected a loss of Na+-K+-ATPase units, the time course of its recovery postexercise, and whether this depressed...

Prolonged submaximal exercise induces isoform-specific Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA and protein responses in human skeletal muscle (2005)

Murphy, K. Τ., Petersen, A. C., Goodman, C., Gong, X., Leppik, J. Α., Garnham, Anne, ...

This study investigated effects of prolonged submaximal exercise on Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA and protein expression, maximal activity, and content in human skeletal muscle. We also investigated the effects...

Prolonged submaximal exercise induces isoform-specific Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA and protein responses in human skeletal muscle (2005)

Murphy, K., Petersen, A., Goodman, Craig, Gong, X., Leppik, J., Garnham, A., ...

This study investigated effects of prolonged submaximal exercise on Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA and protein expression, maximal activity, and content in human skeletal muscle. We also investigated the effects...

Intense exercise up-regulates Na+, K+ -ATPase isoform mRNA, but not protein expression in human skeletal muscle (2004)

Murphy, K.T., Snow, Rod, Petersen, A., Murphy, R., Mollica, J., Lee, J., ...

Characterization of expression of, and consequently also the acute exercise effects on, Na+,K+-ATPase isoforms in human skeletal muscle remains incomplete and was therefore investigated. Fifteen...

5`-aminoimidazole-4-carboxyamide-ribonucleoside- activated glucose transport is not prevented by nitric oxide synthase inhibition in rat isolated skeletal muscle (2004)

Stephens, T, Canny, B, Snow, Rod, McConell, G

1. The nucleoside intermediate 5'-aminoimidazole-4-carboxyamide-ribonucleoside (AICAR) activates skeletal muscle AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and increases glucose uptake. The AMPK...

Human skeletal muscle creatine transporter mRNA and protein expression in healthy, young males and females (2003)

Murphy, Robyn M., Tunstall, Rebecca J., Mehan, Kate A., Cameron-Smith, David, McKenna, Michael J., Spriet, Lawrence L., ...

The present study investigated whether there were any differences between males and females in respect to creatine transporter (CreaT) gene expression and/or total creatine (TCr) content in human...

Creatine supplementation and riluzole treatment provide similar beneficial effects in copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (G93A) transgenic mice (2003)

Snow, Rod, Turnbull, J., Da Silva, S., Jiang, F., Tarnopolsky, M. A.

This study investigated the effects of riluzole (Ril), creatine (Cr) and a combination of these treatments on the onset and progression of clinical signs and neuropathology in an animal model of...

Glycogen availability does not affect the TCA cycle or TAN pools during prolonged, fatiguing exercise (2003)

Baldwin, Jacinta, Snow, Rod, Gibala, Martin J., Garnham, Andrew, Howarth, Krista, Febbraio, Mark A.

The hypothesis that fatigue during prolonged exercise arises from insufficient intramuscular glycogen, which limits tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) activity due to reduced TCA cycle intermediates...

Russell, A., Wadley, G., Hesselink, M., Schaart, G., Lo, Sing Kai, Leger, B., ...

Uncoupling protein 3 (UCP3) is a muscle mitochondrial protein believed to uncouple the respiratory chain, producing heat and reducing aerobic ATP production. Our aim was to quantify and compare the...
