A new review explores the interaction between exercise and air pollution exposure to determine how a person’s physiology reacts—and in some cases, acclimates—to environmental pollutants. The review is published in Physiological Reports.
Infants and children who have severe cases of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) before age 2 are likely to have changes to their lung structure and function that could affect respiratory health later in life.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is pleased to announce its new member leaders for 2024–2025.
Microvascular function is lower in Black men following a recent diagnosis of prostate cancer, compared to white men.
Combining a low dose of blood pressure medication with a higher intake of dietary-resistant starch might help stave off diabetic kidney disease, according to results from a new animal study. Researchers will present their work this week at the American Physiology Summit.
The common painkiller acetaminophen was found to alter proteins in the heart tissue when used regularly at moderate doses, according to a new study conducted in mice. Researchers will present their work this week at the American Physiology Summit in Long Beach, California.
Gymnasts who compete on stiffer floors than their training floors have a higher risk of experiencing an Achilles tendon rupture due to the positioning of their ankles, according to new research from the Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine in New Mexico.
Regular aerobic exercise later in life prevents genomic instability characterized by DNA damage and telomere dysfunction
Exercising at moderate intensity for just 15 minutes may be all that is needed to boost immunity by increasing levels of natural killer (NK) cells. Researchers will present their work this week at the American Physiology Summit in Long Beach, California.
