Sentences with phrase «mitochondrial efficiency»

What was also very interesting about the study was that increased mitochondrial efficiency of the cell (needing less oxygen), apparently is owed to the lower levels of proteins... proteins that normally make the mitochondria «leaky» and inefficient.

Those benefits come with both types of metabolism: from ready insulin response, healthy mucosa, thyroid and other effects (enhanced by moderate starch, a mostly glucose - based metabolism), to hunger - resistane, greater mitochondrial efficiency and perhaps SRT1 / apoptosis and other effects (enhanced by fasting / ketosis).

Estrogen also preserves mitochondrial efficiency and reduces oxidative stress.

This store of phosphocreatine is also replenished by the mitochondria following muscle contraction and a measure of mitochondrial efficiency is the time taken for replenishing these stores: better mitochondrial function is linked to shorter times of phosphocreatine recovery.

For an explanation of this boost in the mitochondrial efficiency of human energy extraction, see Priming the Proton Pump, the second in my video series on the performance - enhancing effects of vegetables.

(5) Both gene expression and metabolic studies showed that mitochondrial efficiency was increased — especially the ability of mitochondria to generate energy from fat stores.
