Research paper thumbnail of ACTN3 genotype influences exercise-induced muscle damage during a marathon competition

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2017

X allele carriers self-reported higher levels of lower limb muscle pain (7 ± 2 vs 6 ± 2 cm; P = 0... more X allele carriers self-reported higher levels of lower limb muscle pain (7 ± 2 vs 6 ± 2 cm; P = 0.02) than RR homozygotes at the end of the race. Conclusions In comparison to RR homozygotes, X allele carriers for the R577X polymorphism of the ACTN3 gene presented higher values for typical markers of exerciseinduced muscle damage during a competitive marathon. Thus, the absence of a functional α-actinin-3 produced by the X allele might induce higher levels of muscle breakdown during prolonged running events. Keywords α-Actinins • Rhabdomyolysis • Muscle pain • Endurance exercise • Genetics • Single-nucleotide polymorphism. Abbreviations Δ Percentage of difference ACTN2 α-Actinin-2 gene ACTN3 α-Actinin-3 gene A.U.

The composition (x=[O]/[Si]), hydrogen content, bonding configuration and paramagnetic defects of... more The composition (x=[O]/[Si]), hydrogen content, bonding configuration and paramagnetic defects of SiO x films were studied. Films were deposited by the electron cyclotron resonance plasma method at room temperature using SiH 4 and O 2 as precursor gases, and depending on gases flux ratio, films from xE2 to 0:9 were obtained. Infrared spectroscopy analysis showed the presence of different vibration modes: Si-O stretching, used to estimate film composition, bending and rocking with positions nearly independent on film composition, and various Si-H peaks: stretching and waggingbending. Films with non-stoichiometric composition show a wider peak than the ones deposited at higher gas ratios. Ellipsometry measurements showed a refractive index at l ¼ 632:8 nm comprised between 1.45 and 2.04. Electron spin resonance measurements shows that the stoichiometric films (xE2) present the well known E 0 centre (dSiO 3) with concentrations in the 10 16 cm À3 range, while for Si-rich films (x52) the Si dangling bond centre (D centre, dSiSi 3) is dominant, with concentrations in the 10 18-10 19 cm À3 range. For near-stoichiometric (xE1:9) films also both E 0 and D centres are present, but in this case the E 0 centre is dominant.
