Vitamin E regulates changes in tissue antioxidants induced by fish oil and acute exercise

Article Abstract:

Vitamin E has been found to regulate changes in tissue antioxidants brought on by fish oil and acute exercise. It seems from studies using rats that sparing of glutathione may be the mechanism for decreasing tissue-protein oxidative damage. Fish oil supplmentation increased activity of glutathione, catalase, peroxidase, and glutathione-S-transferase in the liver and red gastrocnemius (RG muscle).

The effects of chronic exercise on anesthesia induced hepatotoxicity

Article Abstract:

This article examines the beneficial effects of habitual exercise on hepatotoxicity caused by the metabolism of anesthetics such as halothane. Results indicate that chronic exercise increases detoxicant functions in the liver and reduces subsequent tissue damage.

Recovery during high-intensity intermittent anaerobic exercise in boys, teens, and men

Article Abstract:

The effects of age on recovery of peak torque of knee extensors (PTEX) and flexors (PTFL), and total work (TW) during the high-intensity intermittent 30-s (HI30) and 60-s (HI60) exercise in boys, teens and men is investigated. The result indicates that during the HI30 and HI60, the recovery was faster in boys than in teens and men.
