Total lymphocyte CD8 expression is not a reliable marker of cytotoxic T-cell populations in human peripheral blood following an acute bout of high-intensity exercise (2007)
Journal Article
Campbell, J. P., Guy, K., Cosgrove, C., Florida-James, G., & Simpson, R. J. (2008). Total lymphocyte CD8 expression is not a reliable marker of cytotoxic T-cell populations in human peripheral blood following an acute bout of high-intensity exercise. Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, 22(3), 375-380. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbi.2007.09.001

Cytotoxic T-lymphocytes co-express the T-cell receptor, CD3 and the MHC I restricted antigen CD8. Although total CD8 expression is often used to identify CD8+ T-cells in blood, errors are associated with this method as some CD3 negative natural kille...

Apoptosis does not contribute to the blood lymphocytopenia observed after intensive and downhill treadmill running in humans. (2007)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., Whyte, G. P., Black, J., Ross, J., & Guy, K. (2007). Apoptosis does not contribute to the blood lymphocytopenia observed after intensive and downhill treadmill running in humans. Research in Sports Medicine, 15, 157-174. https://doi.org/10.1080/15438620701405339

The lymphocytopenia that occurs during the recovery stage of exercise may be a result of apoptosis through an increased expression of CD95, a loss of the complement regulatory proteins CD55 and CD59, or both. Trained subjects completed intensive, mod... Read More about Apoptosis does not contribute to the blood lymphocytopenia observed after intensive and downhill treadmill running in humans..

High-Intensity Exercise Mobilises Senescent T-lymphocytes into the Peripheral Blood Compartment in Young and Old Subjects: 781 (2007)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Cosgrove, C., Florida-James, G. D., Whyte, G. P., Pircher, H., & Guy, K. (2007). High-Intensity Exercise Mobilises Senescent T-lymphocytes into the Peripheral Blood Compartment in Young and Old Subjects: 781. Medicine and Science in Sports

T-cell senescence occurs during aging as a consequence of chromosome telomere shortening in response to repetitive antigenic stimulation. Senescent T-lymphocytes normally exhibit a “memory” phenotype (i.e. CD62L-/CD45RA-/CD45RO+) and express CD57 and...

Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite?? British Soldiers: 1384 (2007)
Journal Article
Graham, S. M., Simpson, R. J., Clement, R., & Florida-James, G. D. (2007). Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite?? British Soldiers: 1384. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 39(Supplement), S199

PURPOSE: To identify indicators of backpack running performance in “elite” British soldiers using an extensive range of physiological and anthropometrical variables. METHODS: Thirteen male soldiers (mean ± SD: Age: 26 ± 4 yrs; VO2peak: 55.1 ± 5.4) f... Read More about Physiological and Anthropometrical Indicators of Backpack Running Performance in ??Elite??

High-intensity exercise elicits the mobilization of senescent T lymphocytes into the peripheral blood compartment in human subjects. (2007)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., Cosgrove, C., Whyte, G. P., Macrae, S., Pircher, H., & Guy, K. (2007). High-intensity exercise elicits the mobilization of senescent T lymphocytes into the peripheral blood compartment in human subjects. Journal of Applied Physiology, 103, 396-401. https://doi.org/10.1152/japplphysiol.00007.2007

Clonal expansion of T lymphocytes in response to antigenic stimulation is a fundamental process of adaptive immunity. As a consequence of clonal expansion, some T lymphocytes acquire a senescent phenotype, fail to replicate in response to further ant...

Impact of repeated prolonged exercise bouts on cardiac function and biomarkers. (2007)
Journal Article
Middleton, N., Shave, R., George, K., Whyte, G. P., Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., & Gaze, D. (2007). Impact of repeated prolonged exercise bouts on cardiac function and biomarkers. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 39, 83-90. https://doi.org/10.1249/01.mss.0000239395.93578.60

Purpose: The present study examined the impact of repeated bouts of prolonged (< 60 min) exercise on left ventricular function and cardiac biomarkers. Methods: Ten athletes completed a 15.3-mile hill run on three consecutive days and were assessed... Read More about Impact of repeated prolonged exercise bouts on cardiac function and biomarkers..

The effects of marathon running on expression of the complement regulatory proteins CD55 (DAF) and CD59 (MACIF) on red blood cells. (2007)
Journal Article
Simpson, R. J., Florida-James, G., Whyte, G. P., Middleton, N., Shave, R., George, K., & Guy, K. (2007). The effects of marathon running on expression of the complement regulatory proteins CD55 (DAF) and CD59 (MACIF) on red blood cells. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 99, 201-204. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-006-0326-2

Exercise is known to result in the haemolysis of red blood cells (RBCs). Although mechanical stressors such as footstrike and an increased velocity of blood flow may be involved, the biological mechanisms that underpin RBC haemolysis remain elusive....
