    • openAccess   Architectural, functional, and molecular responses to concentric and eccentric loading in human skeletal muscle 

      Franchi, Martino V.; Atherton, Philip J.; Reeves, Neil D.; Flück, Martin; Williams, John; Mitchell, William K.; Selby, Anna; Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes; Narici, Marco Vincenzo Wiley (2014-03)
      Aim We investigated architectural, functional and molecular responses of human skeletal muscle to concentric (CON) or eccentric (ECC) resistance training (RT). Methods Twelve young males performed 10 weeks of ...
    • openAccess   Explosive type of moderate-resistance training induces functional, cardiovascular, and molecular adaptations in the elderly 

      Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes; Dimauro, Ivan; Brunelli, Andrea; Tranchita, Eliana; Ciminelli, Emanuela; Caserotti, Paolo; Duranti, Guglielmo; Sabatini, Stefania; Parisi, Paolo; Parisi, Attilio; Caporossi, Daniela Springer (2014-04)
      Current recommendations aimed at reducing neuromuscular and functional loss in aged muscle have identified muscle power as a key target for intervention trials, although little is known about the biological and cardiovascular ...
    • openAccess   Oxidative stress responses ti a graded maximal exercise test in older adults following explosive-type resistance training 

      Ceci, Roberta; Duranti, Guglielmo; Dimauro, Ivan; Quaranta, Federico; Pittaluga, Monica; Sabatini, Stefania; Caserotti, Paolo; Parisi, Paolo; Parisi, Attilio; Caporossi, Daniela; Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes Elsevier (2014)
      We recently demonstrated that low frequency, moderate intensity, explosive-type resistance training (EMRT) is highly beneficial in elderly subjects towards muscle strength and power, with a systemic adaptive response of ...
    • openAccess   Protein Carbonylation and Heat Shock Proteins in Human Skeletal Muscle: Relationships to Age and Sarcopenia 

      Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes; Wilkinson, Daniel J.; Narici, Marco Vincenzo; Smith, Kenneth; Phillips, Bethan E.; Daniela, Caporossi; Atherton, Philip J. The Gerontological Society of America (2015)
      Aging is associated with a gradual loss of muscle mass termed sarcopenia, which has significant impact on quality-of-life. Because oxidative stress is proposed to negatively impact upon musculoskeletal aging, we investigated ...
    • openAccess   Resistance training and redox homeostasis: Correlation with age-associated genomic changes 

      Dimauro, Ivan; Scalabrin, Mattia; Fantini, Cristina; Graziolo, Elisa; Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes; Mercatelli, Neri; Parisi, Attilio; Sabatini, Stefania; Di Luigi, Luigi Elsevier (2016)
      Regular physical activity is effective as prevention and treatment for different chronic conditions related to the ageing processes. In fact, a sedentary lifestyle has been linked to a worsening of cellular ageing biomarkers ...
    • openAccess   The risk of eating disorders and academic performance in adolescents: DADOS study 

      Adelantado-Renau, Mireia; Beltran Valls, Maria Reyes; Toledo Bonifás, Miriam; Bou-Sospedra, Carlos; Pastor, M. Carmen; Moliner-Urdiales, Diego Arán Ediciones (2018)
      Introduction: eating disorders (ED) are complex multifactorial chronic diseases with adverse consequences on cognition in adolescence. Objectives: the main aim of the present study was to analyze the association between ...
