Is acute supramaximal exercise capable of modulating lipoprotein profile in healthy men?
These results indicate that a supramaximal exercise session has no significant effects on lipid metabolism.
Stimulus intensities that activate predominantly myelinated fibers (less than 200 microA) were most effective to induce slow vagal hyperpolarization. It is suggested that slow hyperpolarization may be one of the mechanisms that underlie the seizure-reducing effect of VNS, by means of reducing the excitability in neurons that would be involved in propagation of seizure activity. As the balance of activity in myelinated and nonmyelinated primary vagal afferents influenced the effect of VNS stimulation, it is likely that the effect of VNS is modulated as changes occur in the underlying vagal tone.
