Tour de France versus Vuelta a España: which is harder?

abstract：PURPOSE:Exercise appears to offer protection against weight gain, perhaps related to its effects on fat metabolism. Previous work in rats has shown that interventions resulting in a negative energy balance lead to alterations in the trafficking of dietary fat. This study was undertaken to determine whether exercise aft...

The binding of AMP to AMPK allows it to be phosphorylated by upstream kinases, resulting in its activation. In contrast, the binding of ATP prevents its activation. AMPK regulate...
