In this study we examined the time course of changes in the plasma concentration of oxypurines [hypoxanthine (Hx), xanthine and urate] during prolonged cycling to fatigue. Ten subjects with an estimated maximum oxygen uptake (VO2(max)) of 54 (range 47-67) ml x kg(-1) x min(-1) cycled at [mean (SEM)] 74 (2)% of VO2(max) until fatigue [79 (8) min]. Plasma levels of oxypurines increased during exercise, but the magnitude and the time course varied considerably between subjects. The plasma concentration of Hx ([Hx]) was 1.3 (0.3) micromol/l at rest and increased eight fold at fatigue. After 60 min of exercise plasma [Hx] was >10 micromol/l in four subjects, whereas in the remaining five subjects it was <5 micromol/l. The muscle contents of total adenine nucleotides (TAN = ATP+ADP+AMP) and inosine monophosphate (IMP) were measured before and after exercise in five subjects. Subjects with a high plasma [Hx] at fatigue also demonstrated a pronounced decrease in muscle TAN and increase in IMP. Plasma [Hx] after 60 min of exercise correlated significantly with plasma concentration of ammonia ([NH(3)], r = 0.90) and blood lactate (r = 0.66). Endurance, measured as time to fatigue, was inversely correlated to plasma [Hx] at 60 min (r = -0.68, P < 0.05) but not to either plasma [NH(3)] or blood lactate. It is concluded that during moderate-intensity exercise, plasma [Hx] increases, but to a variable extent between subjects. The present data suggest that plasma [Hx] is a marker of adenine nucleotide degradation and energetic stress during exercise. The potential use of plasma [Hx] to assess training status and to identify overtraining deserves further attention. 相似文献

The flux rates through the metabolic pathways affecting the maintenance of GuRN pool in intact human RBC were studied. Normal RBC, incubated in KRBB, exhibited a markedly higher accumulation in nucleotides of Gu than of Hx. Addition of 8-AGuo, a potent inhibitor of PNP, resulted in a marked increase in the accumulation of label in the nucleosides, in Ino following incubation with Hx, and in Guo following incubation with Gu, indicating a very high rate of IMP and GMP degradation to bases through their respective nucleosides. Most of the degradation of GMP is by dephosphorylation to Guo, rather than through reductive deamination to IMP. The ultimate fate of IMP in RBC is its degradation to Ino and consequently to Hx. The contribution of AdRN or of IMP to the GuRN pool is negligible. The results indicate that concerning IMP and GMP, human RBC contain very active futile cycles, nucleotide----nucleoside----base----nucleotide, catalyzed by 5'-nucleotidase, PNP, and HGPRT. The operation of the complete cycles is essential for the maintenance of GuRN and the IMP pool size. These results may explain the finding of reduced GTP content in RBC from patients with an inborn deficiency of PNP or of HGPRT. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the discriminatory power of the new reference system, power-duration product (PDP), for the analysis of haemodynamic and metabolic variables derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests. The PDP was calculated as the cumulative index of the product of power (W) times the duration (minutes) of each individual exercise step. The study comprised 30 healthy male volunteers, who were classified into three groups with respect to their regular physical activity: 10 untrained medical students (students), 10 sprinters and long-jumpers (athletes) and 10 endurance athletes performing triathlon (triathletes). Twenty metabolic and haemodynamic variables were recorded throughout exhaustion-limited cycling ergometry. The data were analysed with respect to five reference systems (heart rate, relative and absolute oxygen consumption/body surface area, power, and PDP). A total of 14 differences between modified time courses of haemodynamic and metabolic variables in the three groups of volunteers were observed by reference to PDP, 12 by reference to relative oxygen consumption/body surface area, 11 by reference to heart rate, 8 by reference to absolute oxygen consumption/body surface area, and 7 by reference to power. When using PDP as the reference, the time courses of 8 parameters differed significantly between students and triathletes, 5 between students and athletes, and 1 between athletes and triathletes. In addition to its discriminatory superiority for the comparison of different groups characterized by different cardiopulmonary training and endurance, it was found that PDP permitted a better characterization of the individually performed exercise than the consideration of power per se. 相似文献

The activity of hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) was examined in the livers and kidneys of two genetic lines of chickens selected for different plasma uric acid levels. Previous work demonstrated that the high-uric acid line (HUA) had significantly greater de novo uric acid synthesis rates in kidney tissue compared to the low-uric acid line (LUA). In addition, phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP) synthetase and xanthine dehydrogenase activities in livers and kidneys were significantly higher in the HUA compared to the LUA line. PRPP pool sizes were also significantly higher in both livers and kidneys of HUA birds. HGPRT activities in livers of HUA birds were significantly (P less than 0.05) greater than in LUA birds. The mean value of liver HGPRT was 7.36 +/- 0.25 pmole inosine-5'-monophosphate (IMP) and 6.05 +/- 0.27 pmole IMP produced/micrograms protein/hr, respectively, for the HUA and LUA lines. There were no significant differences (P greater than 0.05) in kidney HGPRT activities between the two groups. The mean value of kidney HGPRT was 52.87 +/- 1.62 pmole IMP and 50.72 +/- 1.62 pmole IMP produced/micrograms protein/hr, respectively, for the HUA and LUA line. Elevated liver HGPRT may serve to enhance the regeneration of PRPP in the HUA liver. Elevated liver PRPP synthetase and PRPP pool size suggest an increased flux through the de novo purine biosynthetic pathway in HUA birds. The resulting additional pyrophosphate from the glutamine PRPP amidotransferase reaction would stimulate recovery of PRPP and spare the system from a substantial loss of energy. 相似文献

Regular training has been claimed to increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes and, consequently, augments the resistance to oxidative stress; however, large volumes of training performed by elite sportsmen could lead to a chronic oxidative stress state. The aim of our study was to assess the oxidative status of elite athletes at the beginning of the preparatory and the beginning of the competition training phases, so that the influence of three months of programmed physical activity on redox status could be determined. The chronic effects of exercise on the redox state of the athletes were compared to the effects of a single bout of karate training. Thirty elite karate athletes, 16-30 years old, were subjected to maximal graded exercise test to estimate their aerobic capacity; blood sampling was also performed to measure levels of superoxide anion radical (O??), hydrogen peroxide (H?O?), superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) and catalase activity (CAT). The only significant change after the three-month training process was found in the significantly decreased CAT activity (X ± SE: 7.95 ± 0.13 U/g Hb × 103 in the preparatory period, 6.65 ± 0.28 U/g Hb × 103 in the competition stage; P < 0.01). After a single karate training session, there was statistically significant decrease of O??(X ± SE: 32.7 ± 4.9 nmol/ml in the preparatory period, 24.5 ± 2.5 nmol/ml in the competition stage; P < 0.05) and increase of H?O?(X ± SE: 11.8 ± 1.0 nmol/ml in the preparatory period, 14.2 ± 0.9 nmol/ml in the competition stage; P < 0.01), as well as significant CAT increase (X ± SE: 6.6 ± 0.6 U/g Hb × 103 in the preparatory period, 8.5 ± 0.5 U/g Hb × 103 in the competition stage; P < 0.05). Although the three-month training process induced, at the first sight, negative changes in the redox state, expressed through the decrease in CAT activity, adequate response of the antioxidant system of our athletes to acute exercise was preserved. 相似文献

The plasma and erythrocyte lipid peroxide levels were measured in a group of male subjects occupationally exposed to lead
for an average period of 17 yr, and compared to those from an age-matched control group living in the same city in a similar
socioeconomical environment.
The blood lead and plasma zinc levels were measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The plasma and erythrocyte lipid peroxide
levels were established by the malondialdehyde determination method. Significant differences were found in the blood lead
levels in lead-exposed workers, 15.00±10.15 μg/dL as compared to controls, 2.37±0.89 μg/dL. The plasma (2.67±0.69 μM) and erythrocyte (27.53±6.28 nmol/g Hb) lipid peroxide levels in workers with occupational exposure to lead were significantly
higher than controls, 1.23±0.61 μM and 14.35±2.08 nmol/g Hb, respectively. There were no significant differences of the zinc levels in both groups.
The blood lead levels had a statistically significant positive correlation with age and with duration of exposure in both
groups, but showed no relationship to the corresponding blood zinc levels. The results presented in this study indicate that
the increase of plasma and erythrocyte lipid peroxide levels in workers exposed to lead may be related to the lead concentration,
age and duration of exposure. 相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) activity in erythrocytes and blood levels of cortisol and insulin were investigated in athletes training under different bioenergetic conditions (sprinters, middle-distance runners, and marathoners). The groups of sprinters and marathoners had a decreased enzyme activity compared to nonathletes (p < 0.05). In response to a standard exercise, load AchE activity increased in the groups of middle-distance runners and marathoners. A relationship was observed between the level of AchE activity and the cortisol-to-insulin ratio in the blood. This ratio is specific to the type of bioenergetic conditions and increases in the following order: controls, middle-distance runners, sprinters, and marathoners. In vitro experiments revealed an effect of insulin on AchE activity. This effect was significantly lower in sprinters than in the control group. A reduction in AchE activity and an increase in the cortisol-to-insulin ratio are considered as factors increasing metabolic turnover in athletes, mainly, lipid turnover. This mechanism ensures effective mobilization of substrates at the start of physical exercise and their recovery after. The observed relationship between the insulin level and the AchE activity may prove to be a mechanism of regulation of the insulin level. This relationship may change during adaptation to physical exercise, as in the case of sprinters, when the sensitivity of AchE to the inhibitory effect of insulin is decreased. A high blood level of cortisol and insulin is a distinctive feature of sprinters, which provides for a higher turnover of carbohydrates. In marathoners, low AchE activity leads to an increased effect of acetylcholine, which is manifested by an increased cortisol level and a decreased insulin level, thus providing for a higher lipid turnover. 相似文献

The blood iron status of 44 male runners of various running specialties (18 sprinters, 13 middle- and 13 long-distance runners) is evaluated by measuring serum ferritin (SF), serum iron (Si), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), hematocrit (Ht), red blood cells content (RBC) and haptoglobin concentration (Hp). The results of these analyses (except Hp) are compared to those obtained in sedentary male subjects (control group) of the same mean age. Mean SF, SI, Hb and Ht measured in athletes are significantly lower than in control group. The remarkably low Hp values obtained in athletes suggests the occurrence of hemolysis. Using unpaired t test, it appears that the blood iron status of these runners does not depend on their running specialty. 相似文献

To investigate the effects of different training methods on nonthermal sweating during activation of the muscle metaboreflex, we compared sweating responses during postexercise muscle occlusion in endurance runners, sprinters, and untrained men under mild hyperthermia (ambient temperature, 35°C; relative humidity, 50%). Ten endurance runners, nine sprinters, and ten untrained men (maximal oxygen uptakes: 57.5 ± 1.5, 49.3 ± 1.5, and 36.6 ± 1.6 ml·kg(-1)·min(-1), respectively; P < 0.05) performed an isometric handgrip exercise at 40% maximal voluntary contraction for 2 min, and then a pressure of 280 mmHg was applied to the forearm to occlude blood circulation for 2 min. The Δ change in mean arterial blood pressure between the resting level and the occlusion was significantly higher in sprinters than in untrained men (32.2 ± 4.4 vs. 17.3 ± 2.6 mmHg, respectively; P < 0.05); however, no difference was observed between distance runners and untrained men. The Δ mean sweating rate (averaged value of the forehead, chest, forearm, and thigh) during the occlusion was significantly higher in distance runners than in sprinters and untrained men (0.38 ± 0.07, 0.19 ± 0.03, and 0.11 ± 0.04 mg·cm(-2)·min(-1), respectively; P < 0.05) and did not differ between sprinters and untrained men. Our results suggest that the specificity of training modalities influences the sweating response during activation of the muscle metaboreflex. In addition, these results imply that a greater activation of the muscle metaboreflex does not cause a greater sweating response in sprinters. 相似文献

This study examined the torque-velocity and power-velocity relationships of quadriceps muscle function, stretch shortening cycle function, and leg-spring stiffness in sprint and endurance athletes. Isokinetic maximal knee extension torque was obtained from 7 sprinters and 7 endurance athletes using a Con-trex isokinetic dynamometer. Torque and power measures were corrected for lean-thigh cross-sectional area and lean-thigh volume, respectively. Stretch-shortening cycle function and muscle stiffness measurements were obtained while subjects performed single-legged squat, countermovement, and drop-rebound jumps on an inclined sledge and force-plate apparatus. The results indicated that sprinters generated, on average, 0.15 +/- 0.05 N.m.cm(-2) more torque across all velocities compared with endurance athletes. Significant differences were also found in the power-velocity relationships between the 2 groups. The sprinters performed significantly better than the endurance athletes on all jumps, but there were no differences in prestretch augmentation between the groups. The average vertical leg stiffness during drop jumps was significantly higher for sprinters (5.86 N.m(-1)) compared with endurance runners (3.38 N.m(-1)). The findings reinforce the need for power training to be carried out at fast contraction speeds but also show that SSC function remains important in endurance running. 相似文献

Purine loss after repeated sprint bouts in humans. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The influence of the number of sprint bouts on purine loss was examined in nine men (age 24.8 +/- 1.6 yr, weight 76 +/- 3.9 kg, peak O(2) consumption 3.87 +/- 0.16 l/min) who performed either one (B1), four (B4), or eight (B8) 10-s sprints on a cycle ergometer, 1 wk apart, in a randomized order. Forearm venous plasma inosine, hypoxanthine (Hx), and uric acid concentrations were measured at rest and during 120 min of recovery. Urinary inosine, Hx, and uric acid excretion were also measured before and 24 h after exercise. During the first 120 min of recovery, plasma inosine and Hx concentrations, and urinary Hx excretion rate, were progressively higher (P < 0.05) with an increasing number of sprint bouts. Plasma uric acid concentration was higher (P < 0.05) in B8 compared with B1 and B4 after 45, 60, and 120 min of recovery. Total urinary excretion of purines (inosine + Hx + uric acid) was higher (P < 0. 05) at 2 h of recovery after B8 (537 +/- 59 micromol) compared with the other trials (B1: 270 +/- 76; B4: 327 +/- 59 micromol). These results indicate that the loss of purine from the body was enhanced by increasing the number of intermittent 10-s sprint bouts. 相似文献

Summary A patient with the full clinical expression of the classical Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is presented with a residual hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) activity of 5–10% in erythrocyte lysate and about 30% in fibroblast lysate. The activities of other erythrocyte enzymes of purine metabolism were typical for a classical Lesch-Nyhan patient. The effects of allopurinol therapy on the excretion of urinary purine metabolites were studied by a newly developed isotachophoretic technique.The unusually high residual activity of HGPRT in erythrodytes and fibroblasts of the patient enabled the enzymologic characterization of the mutant enzyme: in fibroblasts the affinities for the substrates hypoxanthine and guanine were normal. However, there was an increased apparent K
m for phosphoribosylpyrophosphate (PRPP), a complete absence of product inhibition by IMP and GMP, and a decreased heat stability. Addition of PRPP did not stabilize the mutant enzyme. In addition to the altered properties of the fibroblast enzyme, the K
m of the erythrocyte enzyme for hypoxanthine was also increased.Immunoprecipitation experiments revealed the presence of an approximately normal amount of material cross-reacting with anti-human HGPRT antiserum. However, it appeared that this cross-reacting material had a decreased stability. When intact erythrocytes were incubated with radiolabeled purine bases, no formation of IMP or GMP could be detected, despite the relatively high residual activity of HGPRT in the hemolysate. The results fit the following hypothesis: as a consequence of a structural mutation affecting the PRPP-site of the enzyme and a decreased heat stability, the activity of the mutant enzyme under in vivo conditions is virtually zero.In the erythrocytes of the patient's mother a normal HGPRT-activity was found. However, the activity in her fibroblasts was lower than normal, while a decreased heat stability and an intermediate behavior towards IMP could be shown.Hair root analysis of several members of the patient's family confirmed the heterozygosity of the mother, whereas no other heterozygotes could be detected. The family anamnesis did not show other cases of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. These findings were taken as evidence that the patient described in this paper might represent a mutation orginating from the gametes in either of the maternal grandparents. 相似文献

Electron microscopic observation of the aggregation of membrane proteins in human erythrocyte by melittin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Human erythrocytes and erythrocyte ghost membranes were treated with native and modified melittins, up to 250 nmol/mg membrane protein. Native melittin induced aggregation of intramembranous particles (IMPs, observed by freeze-fracture electron microscopy), and created large, smooth bilayer areas devoid of IMP. The degree of IMP aggregation increased with increasing concentration of melittin, corresponding to hemolysis results. Membrane ghosts were slightly more susceptible to IMP aggregation than membranes on intact cells. The potency of inducing IMP aggregation was ranked in the order of: native melittin greater than acetylated melittin greater than succinylated melittin = 0. The concentration range of melittin which caused IMP aggregation corresponded to that which caused the immobilization of band 3 proteins as detected by measurement of rotational mobility by transient dichroism (Dufton et al. (1984) Eur. J. Biophys. 11, 17-24). Because both IMP aggregation and band 3 protein immobilization decreased with decreasing positive charge of the melittins used, the nature of melittin-protein interaction is likely to be at least in part electrostatic in the case of human erythrocyte membranes. Possible roles of IMP aggregation and the consequent creation of 'exposed' bilayer areas in the cytotoxic reaction of melittins are discussed. 相似文献

Genetic determinants of metabolic cooperation were studied by fusing chick erythrocytes to HGPRT- mammalian cells. Heterokaryons were then tested for their ability to incorporate [3H]hypoxanthine and to transfer radioactive material to HGPRT- recipient cells. Chick erythrocytes (CE) have nuclei which are inactive but contain the HGPRT gene and some cytoplasmic HGPRT enzyme activity. They are unable, however, to cooperate with HGPRT- cells. Of the two mammalian cell lines used, the human GM29 line is HGPRT- and capable of functioning as a receptor cell in cooperation experiments with HGPRT+ cells. The HGPRT- mouse A9 line on the other hand is unable to cooperate. Immediately after fusion, both types of heterokaryons incorporated [3H]hypoxanthine, indicating the presence of some chick HGPRT enzyme contributed by the erythrocyte partner at the time of fusion. While the CE-GM29 heterokaryons participated in metabolic cooperation shortly after fusion, the CE-A9 heterokaryons did not. However, four days after fusion, i.e., at a time when the erythrocyte nucleus had been reactivated, the CE-A9 heterokaryons did cooperate. This suggests that in CE-A9 heterokaryons the genes required for metabolic cooperation are expressed by the previously dormant chick erythrocyte nucleus. 相似文献

The adsorption of high-molecular-weight plasma proteins on erythrocyte membranes was studied in athletes after prolonged exercise under competition conditions. The adsorption of individual high-molecular-weight protein fractions depended on their concentration. The adsorption index changed biphasically at submaximum exercise. The adsorption of plasma high-molecular-weight protein fractions was associated with the fluidity of concentrated erythrocyte suspensions. The adsorbed high-molecular-weight globulins and fibrinogen had different effects on the parameters of erythrocyte rheology. 相似文献

Our purpose was to elucidate effects of acute exercise and training on blood lipids-lipoproteins, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) in overweight/obese men (n = 10) and women (n = 8); age, BMI, body fat percentage, and VO(2)max were (mean ± SEM): 45 ± 2.5 years, 31.9 ± 1.4 kg·m(-2), 41.1 ± 1.5%, and 25.2 ± 1.3 mlO(2)·kg(-1)·min(-1). Before exercise training subjects performed an acute exercise session on a treadmill (70% VO(2)max, 400 kcal energy expenditure), followed by 12 weeks of endurance exercise training (land-based or aquatic-based treadmill): 3 sessions·week(-1), progressing to 500 kcal·session(-1) during which subjects maintained accustomed dietary habits. After training, the acute exercise session was repeated. Blood samples, obtained immediately before and 24 h after acute exercise sessions, were analyzed for serum lipids, lipoproteins, and hsCRP adjusted for plasma volume shifts. Exercise training increased VO(2)max (+3.67 mlO(2)·kg(-1)·min(-1), P < 0.001) and reduced body weight (-2.7 kg, P < 0.01). Training increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL(2b)-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations (+3.7 and +2.4 mg·dl(-1), P < 0.05) and particle numbers (+588 and +206 nmol·l(-1), P < 0.05) in men. In women despite no change in total HDL-C, subfractions shifted from HDL(3)-C (-3.2, P < 0.01) to HDL(2b)-C (+3.5, P < 0.05) and HDL(2a)-C (+2.2 mg·dl(-1), P < 0.05), with increased HDL(2b) particle number (+313 nmol·l(-1), P < 0.05). Training reduced LDL(3) concentration and particle number in women (-1.6 mg·dl(-1) and -16 nmol·l(-1), P < 0.05). Acute exercise reduced the total cholesterol (TC): HDL-C ratio in men (-0.16, P < 0.01) and increased hsCRP in all subjects (+0.05 mg·dl(-1), P < 0.05), regardless of training. Training did not affect acute exercise responses. Our data support the efficacy of endurance training, without dietary intervention, to elicit beneficial changes in blood lipids-lipoproteins in obese men and women. 相似文献

Crystal structures of Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) apoenzyme and the enzyme-inosine monophosphate (IMP) complex have been determined to 2.5A and 2.2A resolution, respectively. The active form of the enzyme was identified as a tetramer in solution and the K(i) value of IMP was measured to be 45 microM for alpha-D-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP). Conformation of the flexible loop in T.tengcongensis HGPRT, which is involved in substrate PRPP binding, is different from that observed in phosphoribosyltransferases (PRTs). It contains a 3-10 helix, and a unique double serine repeat. This loop is ordered even in the apoenzyme and assumes a half-closed conformation. The primary magnesium ion is directly coordinated by side-chains of Glu101 and Asp102, and water molecules in the apoenzyme, suggesting a possible prerequisite role for substrate PRPP binding. Most interestingly, an alternative IMP binding mode is found in the structure of T.tengcongensis HGPRT-IMP complex. The 5'-phosphate of IMP occupies the PPi position usually seen in PRT-PRPP complexes. This new observation is consistent with the lower K(i) value of IMP and may suggest a mechanism involving multiple modes of interactions between IMP and T.tengcongensis HGPRT in product release and feedback inhibition. The structure of T.tengcongensis HGPRT is compared with those of mesophilic HPRTs, and several possible features contributing to its thermostability are elucidated. Overall, T.tengcongensis HGPRT appears to be more diverged from other PRTs. 相似文献

Five clones of mouse neuroblastoma cells able to grow in hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine containing medium were isolated from a hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT; EC 2.4.2.8; IMP: pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase) deficient cell line. These hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine resistant revertant clone had 45-55% of wild-type cell HGPRT activity. Kinetic studies indicated that the HGPRT in revertant clones had a reduced maximal velocity as compared to wild type cells based on cell protein. Apparent Km values of HGPRT for hypoxanthine and 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate were similar in wild-type and revertant cells. Heat inactivation studies demonstrated a similar heat lability for HGPRT in revertant and wild-type cells. An antibody fraction prepared from serum of rabbits immunized with HGPRT partially purified from mouse liver was used to measure the amount of cross-reacting material in normal and revertant clones. The revertant clones had one-half the amounth of cross-reacting material present in wild-type cells, based on a given amount of cell protein. These data indicate that the revertant cells may contain fewer HGPRT molecules with unaltered catalytic activity. 相似文献

Increase in selenium requirements with physical activity loads in well-trained athletes is not linear 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Selenium requirements in athletes are supposed to be increased with energy expenditure (EE) to preserve selenium status and an optimal antioxidant balance. The question of whether selenium intakes are related to EE and whether plasma selenium status induces up-regulation in erythrocyte endogenous antioxidant defense and decreases plasma oxidative damage markers in athletes was addressed. 118 well-trained athletes completed 7 d food and activities records in a cross-sectional study. Blood was sampled on day 8. Among the athletes, 23% of the males and 66% of the females had selenium intakes below two-third of the French RDA. Plasma selenium concentrations in most of less trained athletes were lower than the postulated concentration to be required to maximize erythrocyte GSH-Px activity. Athletes with the highest daily EE had the highest selenium intakes, percentage of vegetal protein intakes and plasma selenium concentrations. Only 2.6% of the athletes exhibited low plasma selenium concentrations (< 0.75 micromol/l). The relation between plasma selenium and EE was polynomial (r = 0.50; P < 0.005). Erythrocyte GSH-Px activity in athletes was not linked to selenium status. Selenium requirements are increased in athletes without being linearly related to EE. 相似文献

Development of a biosensor for assaying postmortem nucleotide degradation in fish tissues 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An enzyme sensor system has been developed to assess the freshness level in fish tissue. The system was designed to measure the K value, the concentration ratio of [Hx + HxR] and [Hx + HxR + IMP], where Hx, HxR, and IMP are hypoxanthine, inosine and inosine-5'-monophosphate, respectively. The [Hx + HxR] concentration in tissue extract was measured by nucleoside phosphorylase and xanthine oxidase immobilized on a preactivated nylon membrane and attached to the tip of a polarographic electrode. The electrode amperometrically detected the products of degradation, hydrogen peroxide and uric acid. For determination of [IMP + HxR + Hx], IMP was first converted to HxR by nucleotidase immobilized on the wall of a polystyrene tube. The enzyme electrode consisting of nucleoside phosphorylase and xanthine oxidase provided excellent reproducible results for at least 40 repeated assays and immobilized nucleotidase was good for at least 40 assays as well. The K value for each sample could be determined in ca. 10 min. When applied to K value measurements in several fish meats, the results obtained agreed well with those obtained by the conventional enzymatic method. 相似文献
