Type 1 Muscle Fiber Hypertrophy after Blood Flow–restricted Training in Powerlifters

2018

PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of blood flow restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) on myofiber areas (MFA), number of myonuclei and satellite cells (SC), muscle size and strength in powerlifters. METHODS Seventeen national level powerlifters (25+/-6 yrs [mean+/-SD], 15 men) were randomly assigned to either a BFRRE group (n=9) performing two blocks (week 1 and 3) of five BFRRE front squat sessions within a 6.5-week training period, or a conventional training group (Con; n=8) performing front squats at ~70% of one-repetition maximum (1RM). The BFRRE consisted of four sets (first and last set to voluntary failure) at ~30% of 1RM. Muscle biopsies were obtained from m. vastus lateralis (VL…

Comparative chemistry of 18-electron Mo(II) and 17-electron Mo(III) compounds containing only carbon-based ligands

1998

International audience; The chemical reactivity of various kinetically stable isomers of compound CpMo(η3-C3H5)(η4-C4H6), 1, and its oxidation product [1]+, as well as the bis-allyl Mo(III) complex CpMo(η3-C3H5)2, 2, and the bis-diene Mo(II) complex [CpMo(η4-C4H6)2]+, 3, is reviewed. The inertness toward isomerization processes of the allyl and butadiene ligands in the Mo(II) complexes has allowed a study of the relative reactivity toward both electrophilic and nucleophilic addition processes as a function of coordination mode. The dependence of various reaction pathways on the metal oxidation state has also been investigated. Of particular interest is the discovery that the electronically …

Cyclopentadienylmolybdenum(II) and -(III) complexes containing diene and allyl ligands. Part 4. Reactivity studies of the bisallyl complex CpMo(supin…

1998

Abstract Compound CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 ) 2 , 3, has been synthesized from CpMoCl 4 and four equivalents of allylmagnesium bromide. While the compound is stable in donor solvents at room temperature, warming in refluxing MeCN induces the formation of 1,5-hexadiene by a metal-mediated allyl-allyl coupling process. Treatment of 3 with Bu t NC at room temperature affords CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 )(Bu t NC) 2 , 4. A similar reduction with presumed allyl radical loss occurs for [CpMo( η 3 -C 3 H 5 )( η 4 -C 4 H 6 )] + , [1c] + , to afford [CpMo( η 4 -C 4 H 6 )(Bu t NC) 2 ] + , 5. Treatment of [1c] + with methyllithium affords two products, the major one (1c) corresponding to the one-electron reduction pa…

Efficient Addition of Acid Enediolates to Epoxides

2004

We report new conditions to facilitate the addition of dianions of carboxylic acids to epoxides as an alternative method to the use of aluminum enolates. These conditions require the use of a sub-stoichiometric (10%) amount of amine for dianion generation and the previous activation of the epoxide with LiCl. Other Lewis acids have been shown to be less effective. Yields are good but only low diastereoselectivity is attained, which has not been controlled despite attempts at optimization.

Mechanism of anionic polymerization of (meth)acrylates in the presence of aluminium alkyls, 1. 13C NMR studies of model compounds in toluene

1994

The bimetallic ate complex [(CH 3 ) 2 C=C(OEt)(O - AlR 3 )]Li + is regarded to be the model of the active centre of the polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of aluminium alkyls. This complex is detectable by 13 C NMR up to 273 K. At ambient temperature irreversible decomposition takes place. Apart from the formation of the ate complex, excess aluminium chloride coordinates to the ester carbonyl groups of both the monomer and the polymer chain

New chiral α-aminophosphine oxides and sulfides: an unprecedented rhodium-catalyzed ligand epimerization

2001

International audience; New chiral α-aminophosphine oxide N,P(O) and sulfide N,P(S) ligands have been prepared in one-pot syntheses by addition of Ph2PH to (S)-PhCH[double bond, length half m-dash]NCH(Ph)CH3, followed by oxidation with O2 or S8. Crystallization from cold methanol leads to the isolation of an enantiomerically pure single N,P(O) diastereomer and to a 1 : 1 mixture of the two N,P(S) diastereomers. The coordination chemistry of these ligands with [RhCl(COD)]2 and [RhCl(CO)2]2 has been investigated under argon and syngas. At high temperatures, a P–C oxidative addition of the N,P(O) ligand followed by imine elimination leads to several hydrido rhodium species. The complexes conta…

The generalized H-point standard-additions method to determine analytes present in two different chemical forms in unknown matrix samples. Part II. C…

2000

The generalized H-point standard-additions method (GHPSAM) is used in order to obtain the total Cr(VI) and chromate concentration in water samples whose matrices are completely unknown. Moreover, a new methodology, which is a modification of the GHPSAM, is proposed for the simultaneous determination of the two major chemical forms of Cr(VI) present in the sample. The method is based on the location of spectral intervals where the behaviour of the interferent absorbance can be considered as linear. From these intervals, the analyte concentration free from bias error can be estimated. Spiked samples of dig and harbour water measured in the UV–visible spectral region have been tested to check …

Evaluation and elimination of the “blank bias error” using the H-point standard addition method

1992

Abstract The basis of the H-point standard addition method in the cases where the analyte determination requires the use of an absorbent reagent is considered. The method evaluates and eliminates the blank bias error present in such procedures by using the absorbance increment at two selected wavelengths as the analytical signal of the calibration graphs. Three different determinations were tested: the determination of proteins with the biuret method, thorium with thoron and of magnesium with Titan Yellow. These procedures are better described by the proposed method than by the traditional approach using absorbance values against reagent blank.

Principal component analysis for the selection of variables in the application of the H-point and generalised H-point standard addition method

2000

The present paper deals with the selection of variables for the H-point and generalised H-point standard additions methods (HPSAM and GHPSAM, respectively). Both methods are applied for the resolution of spectroscopic interfered signals in the UV-vis range. The HPSAM is a suitable method for the resolution of binary and ternary mixtures when the interferent is known. The GHPSAM is applied for the resolution of samples that contain unknown interferents. In this paper, a method based on the study of a principal components analysis (PCA) for the selection of variables for the HPSAM and GHPSAM is proposed. The PCA results show the isolation of the analyte signal from the sample signal, achieved…
