A HOT FIND: KINESIOLOGY GRADUATE STUDENT WINS AWARD, PRESENTS AT 1xbet sports betting

MANHATTAN -- A new discovery in how humans regulate body 1xbet sports betting has resulted in an award for a Kansas State University master's student and a presentation at a prestigious conference.

Sarah 1xbet sports betting , master's student in kinesiology, Dundee, Ore., presented at Experimental Biology 2011, April 9-13, in Washington, D.C. The four-day multidisciplinary conference brings together multiple societies. Fieger presented her abstract &1xbet sports betting ;TRPV-1 Channels Contribute to Cutaneous Active Vasodilation in Humans&1xbet sports betting ; to the American Physiological Society. She also was named the recipient of the Gatorade Predoctoral Research Award from the Exercise and Environmental Physiology Section of the American Physiology Section. The award includes a cash prize and complimentary registration to the conference.

Fieger has conducted her research with Brett Wong, K-State assistant professor of kinesiology. They examined the mechanisms of how blood flow increases to the skin during heat stress. Fieger's work focuses on transient receptor potential vanilloid type one 1xbet sports betting or TRPV-1. These 1xbet sports betting are located on many sensory nerves in the skin that detect pain and temperature. Some evidence suggests they are also located in blood vessels, Wong said.

1xbet sports betting is using a drug to block the receptors, performing whole body heating to increase subjects' body temperature and examining their skin blood flow response to the increase in body temperature.

&1xbet sports betting ;She found that if you block those channels there's a decrease in blood flow to the skin during heat stress,&1xbet sports betting ; Wong said. &1xbet sports betting ;This suggests these channels are involved in the body's response to heating or when body temperature increases.&1xbet sports betting ;

Fieger's research includes novel data as a sensory data component to thermo-regulation that had been previously unexamined. The research also found that blocking the molecule nitric oxide results in a reduced response to heat stress. Blocking nitric oxide and the TRPV-1 1xbet sports betting does not cause further reduction in the response to heat stress.

&1xbet sports betting ;This seems to imply that the TRPV-1 channels are independently involved in the response to heat stress,&1xbet sports betting ; Wong said.

Additional evidence has found that blocking the 1xbet sports betting shifts the onset for the increase in skin blood flow to a higher body temperature. These 1xbet sports betting might also explain why individuals in disease states such as diabetes have a lower tolerance to heat stress.

1xbet sports betting began collecting the initial data three years ago but did not have time to finish. Fieger started her research a year ago.

Fieger is already a prolific author. She was published in Experimental Physiology in summer 2010. Another paper is in review with the Journal of Applied Physiology. She also was a co-author on a paper examining TRPV-1 1xbet sports betting with local heating that was published in the Journal of Physiology, one of the top journals in the field Wong said.

&1xbet sports betting ;Sarah's shown tremendous ability to think intellectually about the data,&1xbet sports betting ; Wong said. &1xbet sports betting ;Overall she's really taken things and been extremely successful and productive in the nearly two years that she's been at K-State.&1xbet sports betting ;

1xbet sports betting earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Oregon in 2008.
