Midgley, A. W., McNaughton, L. R., Jones, A. M. “…In the future, molecular biology may make an increasing contribution in identifying effective training methods, by identifying the genes that contribute to the variation in maximal oxygen uptake, the lactate threshold and running economy, as well as the biochemical and mechanical signals that induce these genes. …”

Johnson, M. G., Adam, E., Watt, A., Page, A. E. “…Messenger RNA (mRNA) was isolated and used to analyze the expression of 34 genes via RT-qPCR.

Varillas-Delgado, D., Gutierrez-Hellín, J., Maestro, A. “…Injuries are a complex trait that can stem from the interaction of several genes. The aim of this research was to examine the relationship between muscle performance-related genes and overuse injury risk in elite endurance athletes, and to examine the feasibility of determining a total genotype score that significantly correlates with injury. …”

Malczewska-Lenczowska, J., Orysiak, J., Majorczyk, E., Sitkowski, D., Starczewski, M., Zmijewski, P. “…The aims of this study were to examine (1) the genotype distribution of rs11549465:C>T of the HIF-1a gene and rs1572312:C>A of the NFIA-AS2 gene; (2) the association between the genes and hematological status in endurance-oriented athletes; and (3) the association between the NFIA-AS2 gene and aerobic capacity in cyclists. …”

Romero-Lorca, A., de la Calle, L., Novillo, A., Fernández-Santander, A., Blanco, M.A., Rodelgo, T., Andreu-Vázquez, C., Gaibar, M. “…The data analysed were anthropometric measures, menarche age, genotype related to performance (gene ACTN3) and athletic performance. Relationships between athletic performance and anthropometric or genetic data were compared among the three age groups. …”

Zmijewski, P., Trybek, G., Czarny, W., Leonska-Duniec, A. “…The enzyme polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase like 6, encoded by the GALANTL6 gene, plays a role in the gut microbiome regarding regulation of short-chain fatty acids and their anti-inflammatory and resynthesis functions. …”

Herbert, A. J. “…Furthermore, few investigations have considered gene-environment interactions - in particular, whether specific genes may be sensitive to mechanical loading from physical activity and the outcome of such an interaction for BMD and potential stress fracture injury risk. …”

Ben-Zaken, S., Meckel, Y., Nemet, D., Kassem, E., Eliakim, A. “…There was no difference in the frequency of AGT T/C gene polymorphism between the long-distance runners of Ethiopian and non-Ethiopian origin. …”

Balkó, I., Balkó, S., Týnková, H., Kohlíková, E. “…The study concentrates on the comparison of speed-strenght abilities determined by Wingate test performed in the Biomedical laboratory of FTVS at Charles University in Prague and specific speed tests for fencing with R577X polymorphism of ACTN3 gene in elite fencers of the Czech Republic. By the analysis of buccal smear, we found that 80% of our sample of fencers contains in their genotype at least one R allele of the ACTN3 gene of the R577X polymorphism and 27% of the whole are homozygotes with RR genotype.…”

Ben-Zaken, S., Eliakim, A., Nemet, D., Kaufman, L., Meckel, Y. “…The current paper reviews the main findings on the leading 12 genetic polymorphisms (located in the ACE, ACTN3, AMPD1, BDKRB2, IGF1, IL6, MCT1, MSTN, NOS3, PPARA, PPARGC1A, and VEGFR2 genes) related to swimming performance, while taking into consideration the unique environment of this sport.…”
