Vascular Ageing and Exercise: Focus on Cellular Reparative Processes (2016)
Journal Article
Ross, M. D., Malone, E., & Florida-James, G. (2016). Vascular Ageing and Exercise: Focus on Cellular Reparative Processes. Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2016, 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1155/2016/3583956

Ageing is associated with an increased risk of developing noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The increased risk can be attributable to increased prolonged exposure to oxidative stress. Often, CVD is pr... Read More about Vascular Ageing and Exercise: Focus on Cellular Reparative Processes.

Diurnal physiological and immunological responses to a 10-km run in highly trained athletes in an environmentally controlled condition of 6 °C (2016)
Journal Article
Boukelia, B., Fogarty, M. C., Davison, R. C. R., & Florida-James, G. D. (2016). Diurnal physiological and immunological responses to a 10-km run in highly trained athletes in an environmentally controlled condition of 6 °C. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 117(1), 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-016-3489-5

Purpose The Clara cell protein CC16, secreted from Clara cells in the lung, is discussed as a potential biomarker for toxic effects on the airways. An increased concentration of CC16 in serum may be caused by increased permeability of the lungs. T...

A 10 km time trial running bout acutely increases the number of angiogenic T cells in the peripheral blood compartment of healthy males: Acute exercise mobilizes angiogenic T cells (2016)
Journal Article
Ross, M., Tormey, P., Ingram, L., Simpson, R., Malone, E., & Florida-James, G. (2016). A 10 km time trial running bout acutely increases the number of angiogenic T cells in the peripheral blood compartment of healthy males: Acute exercise mobilizes angio

New Findings What is the central question of the study? Are CD31+ angiogenic T (TANG) cells preferentially mobilized in response to acute exercise? What is the main finding and its importance? Our study reveals that TANG cells are redistributed i...

An exploratory study of the relationship between psychosocial hazard and ambulatory physiological response in higher education employees (2016)
Journal Article
Campbell, T. G., Davison, R., Florida-James, G., & Westbury, T. (2016). An exploratory study of the relationship between psychosocial hazard and ambulatory physiological response in higher education employees. International Journal of Workplace Health Man

Purpose: as exposure to psychosocial hazard at work represents a substantial risk factor for employee health in many modern occupations, being able to accurately assess how employees cope with their working environment is crucial. As the workplace is... Read More about An exploratory study of the relationship between psychosocial hazard and ambulatory physiological response in higher education employees.

Blood lactate thresholds and walking/running economy are determinants of backpack-running performance in trained soldiers (2016)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Graham, S. M., Connaboy, C., Clement, R., Pollonini, L., & Florida-James, G. D. (2017). Blood lactate thresholds and walking/running economy are determinants of backpack-running performance in trained soldiers. Applied Ergonomics, 58, 566-

We developed a standardized laboratory treadmill protocol for assessing physiological responses to a simulated backpack load-carriage task in trained soldiers, and assessed the efficacy of blood lactate thresholds (LTs) and economy in predicting futu...
