Acute effects of various doses of nitrate-rich beetroot juice on high-intensity interval exercise responses in women: a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover trial

Article

Author: Dai, Zihan ; Zhang, Jiaqi ; Zheng, Chen ; Tsz-Chun Poon, Eric ; Heung-Sang Wong, Stephen

BACKGROUND:

This study investigated the acute effects of various doses of nitrate-rich beetroot juice on the responses to high-intensity interval exercise in women.

METHODS:

A double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover trial was conducted with 13 recreationally active young women (age = 23 ± 2 years). All participants performed interval exercise (8 × 1-min bouts of cycling at 85% of peak power output [PPO] interspersed with 1-min active recovery at 20% of PPO) 2.5 h after consumption of the randomly assigned beetroot juice containing 0 mmol (placebo), 6.45 mmol (single-dose), or 12.9 mmol (double-dose) __-mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"-__NO3-. The heart rate (HR), blood pressure, blood lactate, blood glucose, oxygen saturation, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and emotional arousal were assessed.

RESULTS:

Nitrate supplementation significantly altered the HR and RPE responses across the three trials. The mean HR was lower in the single- and double-dose groups than in the placebo control group during both work intervals and recovery periods, as well as across the overall protocol (all p < .05). The mean RPE was lower in the single- and double-dose groups than in the control group during recovery periods and across the overall protocol (all p < .001). However, there was no significant difference in either HR or RPE between the single- and double-dose groups at any time point.

CONCLUSIONS:

Acute nitrate ingestion led to significant decreases in the mean HR and RPE during high-intensity interval exercise, but no additional benefit was observed with higher nitrate content. These findings may assist practitioners in implementing more effective nitrate supplementation strategies during high-intensity interval exercise.

The effects of nitrate on the oral microbiome: a systematic review investigating prebiotic potential

Review

Author: Rosier, Bob T. ; Burleigh, Mia C. ; Moran, Siobhan P. ; Henriquez, Fiona L.

Background:

Nitrate (NO₃^-) has been suggested as a prebiotic for oral health. Evidence indicates dietary nitrate and nitrate supplements can increase the proportion of bacterial genera associated with positive oral health whilst reducing bacteria implicated in oral disease(s). In contrast, chlorhexidine-containing mouthwashes, which are commonly used to treat oral infections, promote dysbiosis of the natural microflora and may induce antimicrobial resistance.

Methods:

A systematic review of the literature was undertaken, surrounding the effects of nitrate on the oral microbiota.

Results:

Overall, n = 12 in vivo and in vitro studies found acute and chronic nitrate exposure increased (representatives of) health-associated Neisseria and Rothia (67% and 58% of studies, respectively) whilst reducing periodontal disease-associated Prevotella (33%). Additionally, caries-associated Veillonella and Streptococcus decreased (25% for both genera). Nitrate also altered oral microbiome metabolism, causing an increase in pH levels (n = 5), which is beneficial to limit caries development. Secondary findings highlighted the benefits of nitrate for systemic health (n = 5).

Conclusions:

More clinical trials are required to confirm the impact of nitrate on oral communities. However, these findings support the hypothesis that nitrate could be used as an oral health prebiotic. Future studies should investigate whether chlorhexidine-containing mouthwashes could be replaced or complemented by a nitrate-rich diet or nitrate supplementation.

Bariatric surgery blunts nitrate-mediated improvements in cardiovascular function of overweight women by interfering with gastric S-nitrosothiol formation

Article

Author: Kemp, Rafael ; Conde-Tella, Sandra Oliveira ; Cássia-Barros, Alessandra ; Júnior, Wilson Salgado ; Salgado Júnior, Wilson ; Lacchini, Riccardo ; Coelho, Eduardo Barbosa ; Feelisch, Martin ; Sanches-Lopes, Jéssica Maria ; Tanus-Santos, Jose Eduardo

Inorganic nitrate (NO₃^-) and nitrate-rich foods have been shown to exert antioxidative effects and lower blood pressure in experimental animal models and human clinical studies. The specific handling of nitrate, including its enterosalivary recirculation, secretion into saliva, oral microbial reduction to nitrite (NO₂^-), and the pH-dependent nitrosative capacity in the stomach have all been recognized as being important for nitrate's beneficial effects. Obesity is of major health concern worldwide and associated with increased cardiovascular risk; whether nitrate lowers blood pressure and improves endothelial function in this setting has not been investigated. We here tested the hypotheses that i) nitrate elicits cardiovascular benefits in overweight women; and ii) these beneficial effects would be diminished in women who underwent bariatric Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery. Our controlled clinical trial included 15 women with prior RYGB surgery and 15 overweight female controls. All participants received a single dose of 0.1 mmol/kg/day nitrate in the form of a beetroot extract for 14 days. Blood collection, 24-h ambulatory blood pressure measurements and endothelial function tests were performed before and after nitrate treatment. Plasma nitrite, nitrate, and S-nitrosothiol (RSNO) concentrations were determined by ozone-based reductive chemiluminescence while thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) were measured using plate-reader based assays. Nitrate reduced blood pressure and improved endothelial function in controls, but not in women with prior bariatric surgery. Nitrate also increased circulating nitrate/nitrite and RSNO levels in controls, but the latter was blunted following RYGB surgery despite even larger increases in nitrite concentrations. Similarly, nitrate increased antioxidant responses in controls but not in women with prior bariatric surgery. This is the first study to show that nitrate exerts beneficial cardiovascular effects in obesity and that the morphological/functional modifications elicited by RYGB surgery abrogates nitrate's effectiveness by preventing gastric RSNO formation.

Genta Incorporated Completes Response To EMEA List Of Outstanding Issues For Genasense(R) Marketing Authorization Application In Melanoma

BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Genta Incorporated today announced that the Company has completed its response to the 180-day List of Outstanding Issues from the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) regarding its Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for Genasense(R) (oblimersen sodium), its lead anticancer product, for treatment of patients with advanced melanoma. The Company currently anticipates that EMEA's Committee on Human Medicinal Products (CHMP) will complete its review and issue its opinion regarding approval within the next 90 days. Genasense, Genta's lead anticancer drug, is a novel targeted therapy that blocks the production of Bcl-2, a protein that appears to be a fundamental cause of resistance to cancer treatment. By knocking down Bcl-2 in cancer cells, Genasense may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy in patients with advanced melanoma. A summary of data from the final analysis of the pivotal Phase 3 trial of Genasense appears below. Efficacy The MAA is based on long-term data derived from the largest randomized controlled trial that has ever been conducted in patients with advanced melanoma. In this trial, which was conducted at 139 sites in 9 countries, 771 patients were randomly assigned to receive chemotherapy with dacarbazine (DTIC) alone or in combination with Genasense. The submission includes data compiled after 24-months of minimum follow-up on all patients. Unless otherwise noted, these results were based on an intent-to-treat analysis: Endpoint Genasense/DTIC DTIC P Overall response 13.5 % 7.5 % 0.007 Complete response 2.8 % 0.8 % 0.03 Durable response 7.3 % 3.6 % 0.03 Progression-free survival, 2.6 mos. 1.6 mos. 0.0007 median Overall survival, median 9.0 mos. 7.8 mos. 0.077 Prior to randomization, patients were prospectively stratified according to certain risk factors, including elevated blood levels of an enzyme known as LDH -- a factor that previous studies have shown is strongly associated with poor outcome. The final analysis has shown that LDH was the sole stratification factor significantly associated with a treatment interaction. When this treatment effect was evaluated, the efficacy of Genasense was significantly superior for all major efficacy outcomes in patients who had normal LDH at baseline, a group that comprised approximately two-thirds of patients in the trial (N=508). In this group, the following efficacy results were observed: Endpoint Genasense/DTIC DTIC P Overall response 17.2 % 9.3 % 0.009 Complete response 3.4 % 0.8 % 0.04 Durable response 9.6 % 4.0 % 0.014 Progression-free survival, 3.1 mos. 1.6 mos. 0.0007 median Overall survival, median 11.4 mos. 9.7 mos. 0.018 Safety In the randomized trial, the most frequent serious adverse events that occurred in greater than or equal to 5% of patients were fever and disease progression (6.2% vs. 2.8%, and 5.1% vs. 4.7%, respectively, for Genasense/DTIC compared with DTIC alone). The most frequent Grade 3 or 4 adverse events that occurred in greater than or equal to 5% of patients were neutropenia (21.3% vs. 12.5%), thrombocytopenia (15.9% vs. 6.4%), leukopenia (7.5% vs. 3.9%), anemia (7.3% vs. 4.7%), and nausea (6.7% vs. 2.5%). Although there was an increase in discontinuations due to adverse events in the Genasense arm (19% vs. 11%), there was no difference in the number of fatal, treatment-emergent adverse events (i.e., events that lead to a death on study or within 30 days from last study treatment). Data from this trial were recently published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology and can be accessed at: . About Malignant Melanoma Malignant melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer. Melanoma is responsible for more than 90% of all skin cancer deaths. The European Network of Cancer Registries estimates that more than 60,000 cases of melanoma are diagnosed each year. The incidence of this disease is increasing by approximately 4 percent annually in the U.S., where it is the number one cause of cancer deaths for women aged 25 to 29. Additional information about melanoma can be accessed at: . About Genasense Genasense inhibits production of Bcl-2, a protein made by cancer cells that is thought to block chemotherapy-induced apoptosis (programmed cell death). By reducing the amount of Bcl-2 in cancer cells, Genasense may enhance the effectiveness of current anticancer treatment. Genta is pursuing a broad clinical development program with Genasense evaluating its potential to treat various forms of cancer. About Genta Genta Incorporated is a biopharmaceutical company with a diversified product portfolio that is focused on delivering innovative products for the treatment of patients with cancer.
