Effect of a Multi-ingredient of L-Histidine, L-Serine, L-Carnosine and N-Acetylcysteine on Visceral Adiposity and Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Postmenopausal Women With Abdominal Obesity
This study aims to evaluate the effect of daily intake of a specific combination of different natural histidine-related amino acids in combination with dietary recommendations, in the reduction of visceral fat, as well as their associated comorbidities, in postmenopausal women with abdominal obesity.
Evaluation of the Relationship Between Training Load and the Levels of Lactate and Other Metabolites Analyzed in Blood and Saliva Samples Using Metabolomic and Proteomic Techniques in Federated Basketball Players: Quasi-experimental Study
Physical exercise induces numerous changes in the body in a complex signalling network caused by or in response to increased metabolic activity of contracting skeletal muscles.
The application of omics analytical techniques such as proteomics and metabolomics in the field of sport allows us to understand how the human body responds to exercise and how sports results can be improved by optimising nutrition and training. Both omics techniques offer a quantitative measurement of the metabolic profiles associated with exercise and are able to identify metabolic signatures of athletes from different sports disciplines.
Basketball is a high-intensity exercise modality interspersed with low-intensity. The performance requirements of basketball include aerobic and anaerobic metabolism, with anaerobic metabolism being considered the main energy system. Therefore, basketball players need great athletic ability to produce a successful performance during competition.
For optimal sports performance it is important to adjust the training load, i.e. the degree of effort that the player can withstand in a single training session. Coaches require effective and objective load monitoring tools that allow them to make decisions about training plans based on the needs of each player.
Microsampling systems emerge as an alternative to venipuncture by facilitating self-sampling, which can be carried out outside healthcare centres, in a comfortable and precise way from a small finger prick that the user can perform. These systems are less expensive and can be effective in measuring the levels of glucose metabolism products, such as lactate, through the application of metabolomics and proteomics. On the other hand, the use of non-invasive methods of measuring lactate levels is becoming increasingly popular in sports medicine. The use of saliva as an alternative fluid to the blood shows promise for identifying the concentrations of metabolites that occur during and after sports training.
Evaluation of the Oral Bioavailability of a New Formulation of Pterostilbene Co-crystal in Comparison With Its Free Form in Healthy Volunteers: Crossover, Randomized and Simple Blind Study (BIOPTERO2)
The goal of this interventional study is to to evaluate the oral bioavailability of the crystallized form of pterostilbene (ccPT) compared to its commercial free base form (pterostilbene (PT) in healthy volunteers. The main question it aims to answer are:
• Do the crystallized forms of pterostilbene (ccPT) using two different encapsulation methods exhibit greater bioavailability than its commercial free base form (PT)?
Participants will attend to four visits: a preselection visit (V0), a visit for the first postprandial study (V1), a visit for the second postprandial study (V2) after one-week washing period and a visit for the third postprandial study (V3) after another one week washing period.
Researchers will analyze the three postprandial assays to determine which type of ccPT encapsulation provides the highest bioavailability compared to the commercial free base form (PT).
