In this study we measured growth and milk intake and calculated energy intake and its allocation into metabolism and stored
tissue for hooded seal (Cystophora cristata) pups. In addition, we measured mass loss, change in body composition and metabolic rate during the first days of the postweaning
fast. The mean body mass of the hooded seal pups (n = 5) at the start of the experiments, when they were new-born, was 24.3 ± 1.3 kg (SD). They gained an average of 5.9 ± 1.1.
kg · day−1 of which 19% was water, 76% fat and 5% protein. This corresponds to an average daily energy deposition of 179.8 ± 16.0 MJ.
The pups were weaned at an average body mass of 42.5 ± 1.0 kg 3.1 days after the experiment was initiated. During the first
days of the postweaning fast the pups lost an average of 1.3 ± 0.5␣kg of body mass daily, of which 56% was water, 16% fat
and 28% protein. During the nursing period the average daily water influx for the pups was 124.6 ± 25.8 ml · kg−1. The average CO2 production during this period was 1.10 ± 0.20 ml · g−1 · h−1, which corresponds to a field metabolic rate of 714 ± 130 kJ · kg−1 · day−1, or 5.8 ± 1.1 times the predicted basal metabolic rate according to Kleiber (1975). During the postweaning fast the average
daily water influx was reduced to 16.1 ± 6.6 ml · kg−1. The average CO2 production in␣this period was 0.58 ± 0.17 ml · g−1 · h−1 which corresponds to a field metabolic rate of 375 ± 108 kJ · kg−1 · day−1 or 3.2 ± 0.9 times the predicted basal metabolic rate. Average values for milk composition were 33.5% water, 58.6% fat and
6.2% protein. The pups drank an average of 10.4 ± 1.8␣kg of milk daily, which represents an energy intake of 248.9 ± 39.1
MJ · day−1. The pups were able to store 73.2 ± 7.7% of this energy as body tissue.

The present study was undertaken to determine the haematological and cardiovascular status, at rest and during prolonged
(1 h) submaximal exercise (approximately 70% of peak oxygen uptake) in a group (n = 12) of chronic coca users after chewing approximately 50 g of coca leaves. The results were compared to those obtained
in a group (n = 12) of nonchewers. At rest, coca chewing was accompanied by a significant increase in heart rate [from 60 (SEM 4) TO 76 (SEM 3)
beats · min−1], in haematocrit [from 53.2 (SEM 1.2) to 55.6 (SEM 1.1)%] in haemoglobin concentration, and plasma noradrenaline concentration
[from 2.8 (SEM 0.4) to 5.0 (SEM 0.5) μmol · l−1]. It was calculated that coca chewing for 1 h resulted in a significant decrease in blood [−4.3 (SEM 2.2)%] and plasma [−8.7 (SEM 1.2)%]
volume. During submaximal exercise, coca chewers displayed a significantly higher heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure.
The exercise-induced haemoconcentration was blunted in coca chewers compared to nonchewers. It was concluded that the coca-induced
fluid shift observed at rest in these coca chewers was not cumulative with that of exercise, and that the hypovolaemia induced
by coca chewing at rest compromised circulatory adjustments during exercise.

Unidirectional flux rates of Ca2+ across gastrointestinal tissues from sheep and goats were measured in vitro by applying the Ussing-chamber technique. Except for the sheep duodenum, mucosal to serosal Ca2+ flux rates (J
ms) exceeded respective flux rates in the opposite direction (J
sm) in both species and in all segments of the intestinal tract. This resulted in net Ca2+ flux rates␣(J
net = J
ms − J
sm) ranging between −2 and 9 nmol · cm−2 · h−1 in sheep and between 10 and 15 nmol cm−2 · h−1 in goats. In sheep, only J
net in jejunum, and in goats, J
netin duodenum and jejunum were significantly different from zero. Using sheep rumen wall epithelia, significant J
net of Ca2+ of around 5 nmol · cm−2 · h−1 could be detected. Since the experiments were carried out in the absence of an electrochemical gradient, significant net
Ca2+ absorption clearly indicates the presence of active mechanisms for Ca2+ transport. Dietary Ca depletion caused increased calcitriol plasma concentrations and induced significant stimulations of
net Ca2+ absorption in goat rumen. J
net of Ca2+ across goat rumen epithelia was significantly reduced by 1 mmol · l −1 verapamil in the mucosal buffer solution. In conclusion, there is clear evidence for the rumen as a main site for active
Ca2+ absorption in small ruminants. Stimulation of active Ca2+ absorption by increased plasma calcitriol levels and inhibition by mucosal verapamil suggest mechanistic and regulatory similarities
to active Ca2+ transport as described for the upper small intestines of monogastric species.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a thiamin derivative, thiamin tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide (TTFD),
on oxygen uptake (˙VO2), lactate accumulation and cycling performance during exercise to exhaustion. Using a randomized, double-blind, cross-over
design with a 10-day washout between trials, 14 subjects ingested either 1 g · day−1 of TTFD or a placebo (PL) for 4 days. On day 3, subjects performed a progressive exercise test to exhaustion on a cycle ergometer
for the determination of ˙VO2submax, ˙VO2peak, lactate concentration ([La− ]), lactate threshold (ThLa) and heart rate ( f
c). On day 4, subjects performed a maximal 2000-m time trial on a cycle ergometer. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with
repeated measures was used to determine significant differences between trials. There were no significant differences detected
between trials for serial measures of ˙VO2submax, [La−] or f
c. Likewise, ˙VO2peak [PL 4.06 (0.19) TTFD 4.12 (0.19) l · min−1, P = 0.83], ThLa [PL 2.47 (0.17), TTFD 2.43 (0.16) l · min−1, P = 0.86] and 2000-m performance time [PL 204.5 (5.5), TTFD 200.9 (4.3) s, P = 0.61] were not significantly different between trials. The results of this study suggest that thiamin derivative supplementation
does not influence high-intensity exercise performance.

The effect of various activity regimes on metabolism of pigeon pectoralis was examined by measurement of blood lactate following
exercise, total lactate dehydrogenase activity of pectoral muscle, and proportions of specific isoenzymes of pectoral muscle
lactate dehydrogenase. Sprint-trained birds had the highest pectoral muscle lactate dehydrogenase activity (1409 IU · g−1 wet tissue), while endurance-trained birds had the highest peak lactate levels (287 mg · dl−1, extrapolated from decay curves) and fastest half-time of the lactate response (4.8 min) following exercise, but the lowest
lactate dehydrogenase activity (115 IU · g−1 wet tissue). Immobilization of one wing for 3 weeks following endurance training produced a marked increase in lactate dehydrogenase
activity of the immobilized muscle, compared to that in the contralateral pectoralis and endurance-trained muscle. Aerobic
forms of the lactate dehydrogenase enzyme (that favor conversion of lactate to pyruvate) predominated in pectoral muscle of
endurance-trained birds, while cage-confined birds exhibited primarily the anaerobic isoenzymes. These results demonstrate
that conversion of pectoral muscle lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes, total lactate dehydrogenase activity, and half-time of
lactate response after exercise is dependent on activity regime in pigeons. In this respect, pigeon pectoral muscle responds
to training and disuse in a manner similar to that of mammalian skeletal muscle.

This study investigated the effects on running economy (RE) of ingesting either no fluid or an electrolyte solution with
or without 6% carbohydrate (counterbalanced design) during 60-min running bouts at 80% maximal oxygen consumption (V˙O2max). Tests were undertaken in either a thermoneutral (22–23°C; 56–62% relative humidity, RH) or a hot and humid natural environment
(Singapore: 25–35°C; 66–77% RH). The subjects were 15 young adult male Singaporeans [V˙O2max = 55.5 (4.4 SD) ml kg−1 min−1]. The RE was measured at 3 m s−1 [65 (6)% V˙O2max] before (RE1) and after each prolonged run (RE2). Fluids were administered every 2 min, at an individual rate determined
from prior tests, to maintain body mass (group mean = 17.4 ml min−1). The V˙O2 during RE2 was higher (P < 0.05) than that during the RE1 test for all treatments, with no differences between treatments (ANOVA). The mean increase
in V˙O2 from RE1 to RE2 ranged from 3.4 to 4.7 ml kg−1 min−1 across treatments. In conclusion, the deterioration in RE at 3 m s−1 (65% V˙O2max) after 60 min of running at 80% V˙O2max appears to occur independently of whether fluid is ingested and regardless of whether the fluid contains carbohydrates or
electrolytes, in both a thermoneutral and in a hot, humid environment.

To study the physiological responses induced by immersing in cold water various areas of the upper limb, 20 subjects immersed
either the index finger (T1), hand (T2) or forearm and hand (T3) for 30 min in 5°C water followed by a 15-min recovery period.
Skin temperature of the index finger, skin blood flow (Qsk) measured by laser Doppler flowmetry, as well as heart rate (HR) and mean arterial blood pressure (ˉBPa) were all monitored during the test. Cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC) was calculated as Qsk / ˉBPa. Cold induced vasodilatation (CIVD) indices were calculated from index finger skin temperature and CVC time courses. The
results showed that no differences in temperature, CVC or cardiovascular changes were observed between T2 and T3. During T1,
CIVD appeared earlier compared to T2 and T3 [5.90 (SEM 0.32) min in T1 vs 7.95 (SEM 0.86) min in T2 and 9.26 (SEM 0.78) min
in T3, P < 0.01]. The HR was unchanged in T1 whereas it increased significantly at the beginning of T2 and T3 [+13 (SEM 2) beats · min−1 in T2 and +15 (SEM 3) beats · min−1 in T3, P < 0.01] and then decreased at the end of the immersion [−12 (SEM 3) beats · min−1 in T2, and −15 (SEM 3) beats · min−1 in T3, P < 0.01]. Moreover, ˉBPaincreased at the beginning of T1 but was lower than in T2 and T3 [+9.3 (SEM 2.5) mmHg in T1, P < 0.05; +20.6 (SEM 2.6) mmHg and 26.5 (SEM 2.8) mmHg in T2 and T3, respectively, P < 0.01]. The rewarming during recovery was faster and higher in T1 compared to T2 and T3. These results showed that general
and local physiological responses observed during an upper limb cold water test differed according to the area immersed. Index
finger cooling led to earlier and faster CIVD without significant cardiovascular changes, whereas hand or forearm immersion
led to a delayed and slower CIVD with a bradycardia at the end of the test.

The present study investigated the relationship between plasma potassium ion concentration ([K+]) and skeletal muscle torque during three different 15-min recovery periods after fatigue induced by four 30-s sprints. Four
males and one female completed the multiple sprint exercise on three separate days; recovery was passive, i.e. no cycling
exercise (PRec), active cycling at 30% peak oxygen consumption O2peak (30% Rec) and active cycling at 60% O2peak (60% Rec). Plasma [K+] was measured from blood sampled from an antecubital vein of subjects at rest and at 0, 3, 5, 10 and 15 min into each recovery.
Isokinetic leg strength was measured at rest and at 1, 6, 11 and 16 min during each recovery. Following the exhaustive sprints,
[K+] increased significantly from an average mean (SEM) resting value of 3.81 (0.07) mmol · l−1 to 4.48 (0.19) mmol · l−1 (P < 0.01). In all recovery conditions, plasma [K+] returned to resting levels within 3 min following the fourth sprint. However, in the two active recovery conditions plasma
[K+] increased over the remainder of the recovery periods to 4.36 (0.12) mmol · l−1 in the 30% Rec condition and 4.62 (0.12) mmol · l−1 in the 60% Rec condition, the latter being significantly higher than the former (P < 0.01). The maximum torque measured following the sprints decreased significantly, on average, to 61.1 (8.36)% of peak levels
(P < 0.01). After 15 min of recovery, maximum torque was highest in the 30% Rec condition at 92.13 (3.06)% of peak levels (P < 0.01), compared to 85.23 (3.64)% and 85.71 (0.82)% for the PRec and 60% Rec conditions, respectively. In contrast to the
significant differences in plasma [K+] across all three recovery conditions, muscle torque recovery was significantly different in only the 30% Rec condition.
In summary, recovery of peak levels of muscle torque following fatiguing exercise does not appear to follow changes in plasma
[K+].

The effect of a 3-week exercise programme on performance and economy of walking was analysed in 16 male patients with chronic
heart failure [mean age 51.8 (SD 6.9) years, height 174.9 (SD 6.3) cm, body mass 75.3 (SD 11.5) kg, ejection fraction 20.8
(SD 5.0)%]. They were submitted to a cardiopulmonary exercise test on a cycle ergometer and a 6-min walking test on a treadmill
before and after the period of exercise training. The training programme consisted of interval cycle (five times a week for
15 min), and treadmill ergometer training (three times a week for 10 min) at approximately 70% cycling peak oxygen uptake
(O2peak) and supplementary exercises (three times a week for 20 min). Compared to the pre values cycling O2peak [11.9 (SD 2.9) vs 14.0 (SD 2.3) ml · kg–1 · min–1], maximal self paced walking speed [0.68 (SD 0.33) vs 1.16 (SD 0.30) m · s–1], and net walking power [2.16 (SD 0.89) vs 2.73 (SD 0.91) W · kg–1] had increased (P < 0.01) while net energy cost [3.31 (SD 0.66) vs 2.33 (SD 0.38) J · kg–1 · m–1] had decreased (P < 0.001) after the training period. Approximately 42% of the increase of walking speed resulted from a higher walking power
output, whereas approximately 58% corresponded to a positive effect on walking economy. The improvement in walking economy
was a function of an increase in walking velocity itself and a result of a more efficient walking technique. These results
would indicate that in patients with marked exercise intolerance, adequate exercise training programmes could contribute to
favourable metabolic changes with positive effects on the economy of motion.

The effect of gender on left ventricular systolic function and exercise haemodynamics in healthy young subjects was studied
during 30-s all-out sudden strenuous dynamic exercise. A group of 22 men [19.3 (SD 1) years] 20 women [19.1 (SD 1) years]
volunteered to participate in this study. Two-dimensional direct M-mode and Doppler echocardiograph studies were performed
with the subject in the sitting position. The Doppler examination of flow was located with continuous-wave, interrogating
ascending aorta measurements. The subjects completed the study without showing any electrocardiograph abnormalities. An interaction
effect with stroke volume (P < 0.05) was characterized by a decrease in the men and an increase of stroke volume in the women. Cardiac output rose significantly
(P < 0.05) up to 14.5 (SD 6) l · min−1) for the men and 12.1 (SD 4) l · min−1 for the women compared to the rest values [5.8 (SD 0.4) and 4.7 (SD 0.5) l · min−1, respectively]. Flow velocity integral and acceleration time differed significantly between the two groups at rest (P < 0.05). During exercise these differences showed an interaction effect (P < 0.05). These results would indicate that normal men and women respond to sudden strenuous exercise by reducing their left
ventricular systolic function, with a significantly greater decrease in women (P < 0.05). The gender differences in the haemodynamic responses during the present study, may, as suggested by others, be attributable
to differences in energy metabolism. In addition, changes in Doppler parameters of aortic flow, haemodynamics and blood pressure
responses during sudden strenuous exercise differed markedly from those seen before with endurance exercise.

Whereas the inhibitory innervation of the deep extensor abdominal muscle in crayfish is mediated by a weakly acting common
inhibitor, the opener muscle exhibits a stronger inhibition. In the present study the most abundant γ-aminobutyric acid-activated
chloride channel on distal fibers of crayfish opener muscle was characterized by measuring the current responses after applying
pulses of γ-aminobutyric acid to outside-out patches. The results were compared to those obtained earlier with the chloride
channel on the deep extensor abdominal muscle of the same species. The double logarithmic plot of the dose-response relationship
had a slope of n
H = 2.2 in contrast to n
H = 5.3 for the channel on the deep extensor abdominal muscle. The rise time of the current response declined to 1 ms at a
γ-aminobutyric acid concentration of 50 mmol · l−1. With lower concentrations the rise time increased to a maximal value of 280 ms. No peak of the rise time at low γ-aminobutyric
acid concentrations, as observed for the channel on the deep extensor abdominal muscle, was obvious. The open and closed times
were similar to those of the channel of the deep extensor abdominal muscle. Different reaction schemes were discussed to describe
the kinetics of the chloride channel of the opener muscle.

Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-MRS) was used to investigate the influence of maximal aerobic power (˙VO
2max) on the recovery of human calf muscle from high-intensity exercise. The (˙VOO2max) of 21 males was measured during treadmill exercise and subjects were assigned to either a low-aerobic-power (LAP) group
(n = 10) or a high-aerobic-power (HAP) group (n = 11). Mean (SE) ˙VO 2max of the groups were 46.6 (1.1) and 64.4 (1.4) ml · kg−1 · min−1, respectively. A calf ergometry work capacity test was used to assign the same relative exercise intensity to each subject
for the MRS protocol. At least 48 h later, subjects performed the rest (4 min), exercise (2 min) and recovery (10 min) protocol
in a 1.5 T MRS scanner. The relative concentration of phosphocreatine (PCr) was measured throughout the protocol and intracellular
pH (pHi) was determined from the chemical shift between inorganic phospate (Pi) and PCr. End-exercise PCr levels were 27 (3.4) and 25 (3.5)% of resting levels for LAP and HAP respectively. Mean resting
pHi was 7.07 for both groups, and following exercise it fell to 6.45 (0.04) for HAP and 6.38 (0.04) for LAP. Analysis of data
using non-linear regression models showed no differences in the rate of either PCr or pHi recovery. The results suggest that ˙VO2max is a poor predictor of metabolic recovery rate from high-intensity exercise. Differences in recovery rate observed between
individuals with similar ˙VO2max imply that other factors influence recovery.

Short-latency vestibular-evoked potentials to pulsed linear acceleration were characterized in the quail. Responses occurred
within 8 ms following the onset of stimuli and were composed of a series of positive and negative peaks. The latencies and
amplitudes of the first four peaks were quantitatively characterized. Mean latencies at 1.0 g ms−1 ranged from 1265 ± 208 μs (P1, N = 18) to 4802 ± 441 μs (N4, N = 13). Amplitudes ranged from 3.72 ± 1.51 μV (P1/N1, N = 18) to 1.49 ± 0.77 μV (P3/N3, N = 16). Latency-intensity (LI) slopes ranged from −38.7 ± 7.3 μs dB−1 (P1, N = 18) to −71.6 ± 21.9 μs dB−1 (N3, N = 15) and amplitude-intensity (AI) slopes ranged from 0.20 ± 0.08 μV dB−1 (P1/N1, N = 18) to 0.07 ± 0.04 μV dB−1 (P3/N3, N = 11). The mean response threshold across all animals was −21.83 ± 3.34 dB re: 1.0 g ms−1 (N = 18). Responses remained after cochlear extirpation showing that they could not depend critically on cochlear activity.
Responses were eliminated by destruction of the vestibular end organs, thus showing that responses depended critically and
specifically on the vestibular system. The results demonstrate that the responses are vestibular and the findings provide
a scientific basis for using vestibular responses to evaluate vestibular function through ontogeny and senescence in the quail.

Light response characteristics of a morphologically diverse group of southern hemisphere conifers as measured by chlorophyll fluorescence 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Unlike northern hemisphere conifer families, the southern family, Podocarpaceae, produces a great variety of foliage forms
ranging from functionally broad-, to needle-leaved. The production of broad photosynthetic surfaces in podocarps has been
linked qualitatively to low-light-environments, and we undertook to assess the validity of this assumption by measuring the
light response of a morphologically diverse group of podocarps. The light response, as apparent photochemical electron transport
rate (ETR), was measured by modulated fluorescence in ten species of this family and six associated species (including five
Cupressaceae and one functionally needle-leaved angiosperm) all grown under identical glasshouse conditions. In all species,
ETR was found to increase as light intensity increased, reaching a peak value (ETRmax) at saturating quantum flux (PPFDsat), and decreasing thereafter. ETRmax ranged from 217 μmol electrons · m−2 · s−1 at a PPFDsat of 1725 μmol photons · m−2 · s−1 in Actinostrobus acuminatus to an ETR of 60 μmol electrons · m−2 · s−1 at a PPFDsat of 745 μmol electrons · m−2 · s−1 in Podocarpus dispermis. Good correlations were observed between ETRmax and both PPFDsat and maximum assimilation rate measured by gas-exchange analysis. The effective quantum yield at light saturation remained
constant in all species with an average value of 0.278 ± 0.0035 determined for all 16 species. Differences in the shapes of
light response curves were related to differences in the response of non-photochemical quenching (q
n), with q
n saturating faster in species with low PPFDsat. Amongst the species of Podocarpaceae, the log of average shoot width was well correlated with PPFDsat, wider leaves saturating at lower light intensities. This suggests that broadly flattened shoots in the Podocarpaceae are
an adaptation to low light intensity.

The ontogeny of deep-body cold sensitivity was studied in 1 to 12 days old Pekin ducklings Anas platyrhynchos. Deep-body cold sensitivity was determined by means of thermodes implanted in the abdominal cavity. The thermodes were perfused
with cold water for 15-min periods to lower the core temperature. Cooling of the body core elicited increases in metabolic
rate and vasoconstrictions in the legs of all the ducklings. From the changes induced in metabolic rate and core temperature,
deep-body cold sensitivity values of between −5.17 and −6.36 W · kg−1 · °C−1, were estimated. These values, which are in the range of those reported previously for adult Pekin ducks, did not change
with age, and it is concluded that deep-body cold sensitivity is fully developed at hatching. Our next aim was to investigate
whether the autonomic responses elicited by exposure of ducklings to cold ambient conditions could be explained by temperature
changes within the body core. During cold exposure, the increase in metabolic rate was not accompanied by a concomitant decrease
in core temperature. On the contrary, deep-body temperature increased slightly during the initial phase of cold exposure.
The ducklings attained a metabolic rate amounting to 85–90% of their peak metabolic rate before the core temperature fell
below the regulated level measured at thermoneutrality. Thus, despite the findings that Pekin ducklings have a highly-developed
deep-body cold sensitivity, their metabolic cold defence under natural conditions seems to be mediated primarily by peripheral
thermoreceptors.

This study examined the effect of mild hypobaria (MH) on the peak oxygen consumption (O2peak) and performance of ten trained male athletes [ (SEM); O2peak = 72.4 (2.2) ml · kg−1 · min−1] and ten trained female athletes [O2peak = 60.8 (2.1) ml · kg−1 · min−1]. Subjects performed 5-min maximal work tests on a cycle ergometer within a hypobaric chamber at both normobaria (N, 99.33
kPa) and at MH (92.66 kPa), using a counter-balanced design. MH was equivalent to 580 m altitude. O2peak at MH decreased significantly compared with N in both men [− 5.9 (0.9)%] and women [− 3.7 (1.0)%]. Performance (total kJ)
at MH was also reduced significantly in men [− 3.6 (0.8)%] and women [− 3.8 (1.2)%]. Arterial oxyhaemoglobin saturation (SaO2) at O2peak was significantly lower at MH compared with N in both men [90.1 (0.6)% versus 92.0 (0.6)%] and women [89.7 (3.1)% versus
92.1 (3.0)%]. While SaO2 at O2peak was not different between men and women, it was concluded that relative, rather than absolute, O2peak may be a more appropriate predictor of exercise-induced hypoxaemia. For men and women, it was calculated that 67–76% of the
decrease in O2peak could be accounted for by a decrease in O2 delivery, which indicates that reduced O2 tension at mild altitude (580 m) leads to impairment of exercise performance in a maximal work bout lasting ≈ 5 min.

Indirect indices of exercise-induced human skeletal muscle damage and connective tissue breakdown were studied following
a single bout of voluntary eccentric muscle contractions. Subjects (six female, two male), mean (SD) age 22 (2) years performed
a bout of 50 maximum voluntary eccentric contractions of the knee extensors of a single leg. The eccentric exercise protocol

[P < 0.01, repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA)]. Serum creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities

(4144) IU · l–1 and 375 (198) IU · l–1, respectively. Serum alkaline phosphatase activity showed no changes throughout the study, and a non-significant increase
(P = 0.058, repeated measures ANOVA) in pyridinoline was recorded following the bout. Urinary hydroxyproline (HP) and hydroxylysine
(HL) excretion, expressed in terms of creatinine (Cr) concentration, increased after exercise (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively, repeated measures ANOVA). An increased HP:Cr was recorded 2 days post-exercise and HL:Cr was increased
above baseline on days 2, 5, and 9 post-exercise. This indirect evidence of exercise-induced muscle damage suggests that myofibre
disruption was caused by the eccentric muscle contractions. Elevated urine concentrations of indirect indices of collagen
breakdown following eccentric muscle contractions suggests an increased breakdown of connective tissue, possibly due to a
localised inflammatory response.

Eight fit men [maximum oxygen consumption (O2max) 64.6 (1.9) ml · kg−1 · min−1, aged 28.3 (1.7) years (SE in parentheses) were studied during two treadmill exercise trials to determine the effect of endogenous
opioids on insulin and glucagon immunoreactivity during intense exercise (80% O2max). A double-blind experimental design was used with subjects undertaking the two exercise trials in counterbalanced order.
Exercise trials were 20 min in duration and were conducted 7 days apart. One exercise trial was undertaken following administration
of naloxone (N; 1.2 mg; 3 ml) and the other after receiving a placebo (P; 0.9% NaCl saline; 3 ml). Prior to each experimental
trial a flexible catheter was placed into an antecubital vein and baseline blood samples were collected. Immediately after,
each subject received either a N or P bolus injection. Blood samples were also collected after 20 min of continuous exercise
(running). Glucagon was higher (P < 0.05), while insulin was lower (P < 0.05), during exercise compared with pre-exercise values in both trials. However, glucagon was higher (P < 0.05) in the P than in the N exercise trial [141.4 (8.3) ng · l−1 vs 127.2 (7.6) ng · l−1]. There were no differences in insulin during exercise between the P and N trials [50.2 (4.3) pmol · l−1 vs 43.8 (5) pmol · l−1]. These data suggest that endogenous opioids may augment the glucagon response during intense exercise.

The present study investigated the mechanism of diving bradycardia. A group of 14 healthy untrained male subjects were examined
during breath-holding either out of the water (30–33°C), in head-out immersion, or in whole-body submersion (27–29°C) in a
diving pool. Blood velocity, blood volume flow in the carotid artery, diastolic blood pressure and electrocardiogram were
measured and recorded during the experiments. The peak blood velocity increased by 13.6% (P < 0.01) and R-wave amplitude increased by 57.1% (P < 0.005) when the subjects entered water from air. End-diastolic blood velocity in the carotid artery increased significantly during breath-holding, e.g. increased from 0.20 (SD 0.02) m · s−1 at rest to 0.33 (SD 0.04) m · s−1 (P < 0.001) at 50.0 s in breath-hold submersion to a 2.0-m depth. Blood volume flow in the carotid artery increased by 26.6%
(P < 0.05) at 30 s and 36.6% (P < 0.001) at 40 s in breath-hold submersion to a 2.0-m depth. Diastolic blood pressure increased by 15.4% (P < 0.01) at 60 s during breath-holding in head-out immersion. Blood volume flow, and diastolic blood pressure increased significantly more and faster during breath-holding in submersion than out of the
water. There was a good negative correlation with the heart rate: the root mean square correlation coefficient r was 0.73 (P < 0.001). It was concluded that an increased accumulation of blood in the aorta and arteries at end-diastole and decreased
venous return, caused by an increase in systemic peripheral resistance during breath-holding, underlies diving bradycardia.

(1) In vitro retinas of a crab, Leptograpsus, were treated with a phospholipase inhibitor, manoalide, or a G-protein activator, Mas-7. Both drugs address early stages
of the phototransduction cascade. (2) Manoalide inhibited the light-dependent reduction of rhabdoms during the `day' phase
of the light cycle, but did not induce rhabdom overgrowth. Following a period of darkness manoalide failed to affect the diminution
of illuminated rhabdoms. (3) The diminution of rhabdoms that follows photoreceptor depolarisation induced by 100 mmol · l−1 K+ in darkness was not affected by 2␣μmol · l−1 manoalide. (4) When retinas in the `night' phase were treated with Mas-7 in darkness, rhabdom diameters were augmented, concurrently
with endocytosis of photoreceptor plasma membranes. (5) The results of combining manoalide and Mas-7 with actinomycin D, U-57908
or okadaic acid, drugs used in previous studies to manipulate steps notionally lower in the transduction cascade, lead to
a hypothetical model for the regulation of phototransductive membrane turnover by arthropods.
