25-Hydroxycholecalciferol Improves Cardiac Metabolic Adaption, Mitochondrial Biogenetics, and Redox Status to Ameliorate Pathological Remodeling and Functional Failure in Obese Chickens by Shih-Kai Chiang, Mei-Ying Sin, Jun-Wen Lin, Maraddin Siregar, Gilmour Valdez, Yu-Hui Chen, Thau Kiong Chung, Rosemary L. Walzem, Lin-Chu Chang, Shuen-Ei Chen

“…Necropsy with the surviving counterparts along the time course confirmed alleviation of myocardial remodeling and functional failure by 25-OH-D3, as shown by BNP and MHC-β expressions, pathological hypertrophy, and cardiorespiratory responses (<i>p</i> < 0.05). 25-OH-D3 mitigated cardiac deficient bioenergetics in Ad-hens by rescuing PGC-1α activation, mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics, and electron transport chain complex activities, and metabolic adaptions in glucose oxidation, pyruvate/lactate interconversion, TCA cycle, and β-oxidation, as well as in TG and ceramide accumulation to limit lipotoxic development (<i>p</i> < 0.05). …”

Different whole body HIIT protocols do not promote different muscle thickness and functional adaptations among healthy physically active subjects by Alexandre L. Evangelista, Júlio B. B. de Camargo, Roberta L. Rica, Luiz Carlos Carnevali Júnior, Gregg S. Mallett, Valentina Bullo, Marco Bergamin, Stefano Gobbo, Danilo S. Bocalini

“…IntroductionDespite robust evidence on the benefits of high intensity interval training using body weight (WB-HIIT), the effects of different training configurations on morpho-functional adaptations are still unclear. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess the effects of two distinct WB-HIIT protocols on morphological and general fitness adaptations in healthy active young individuals.MethodsThirty-four participants (22 males and 12 females) were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: 30 s of all-out effort interspersed with 10 s of passive recovery (G30 × 10, n = 17) or 40 s of an all-out effort interspersed with 20 s of passive recovery (G40 × 20, n = 17). …”
