Experimental Physiology December 2023 Newsletter |
|
|
We hope that you have been enjoying receiving quarterly updates from Experimental Physiology. Moving forward, we want to showcase the incredible wealth of research our family of journals cover. Therefore, from next month, we will be updating the format of our newsletters and will send out a monthly ‘roundup’ of research from our publications, in place of separate quarterly newsletters for each journal. These Research Roundups will give a comprehensive overview of our journals’ contents split across four main physiological themes: • Molecular • Cellular • Systems • Integrative
As you are already signed up to receive our newsletters, you will continue to receive the updated Research Roundup newsletter. However, if you do not wish to receive this, please unsubscribe. |

How does muscle respond to exercise? |
Eisuke Ochi et al., have highlighted a new mechanism that controls how muscle responds to exercise. In their article, they show how the hormone Klotho prevents direct, mechanical activation of genes that regulate muscle differentiation. |

Impaired exercise tolerance |
Joshua Smith was awarded the 2022 Inaugural Review Prize for his work exploring the mechanisms responsible for exercise intolerance in patients with heart failure. His review about the locomotor muscle group III/IV afferent feedback and respiratory muscle work deepens our understanding of its important role in this pathophysiology. |

How does exercise affect the gut microbiota? |
In their Review, Gregory J. Grosicki et al., provide a summary of the existing literature on acute exercise responses of the gut microbiota and its metabolic output in humans. The work has been selected as an Editor’s Pick. |

The effect of hypoxia on endothelial function |
Gabriella M. K. Rossetti et al., have contributed to our Connections collection, with this piece which sets the scene for targeted interventions to protect against hypoxia-induced endothelial dysfunction. |
