The gut microbiota, recognised for its vital functions in host health, operates as an endocrine organ, exerting systemic effects beyond the gastrointestinal tract. This “virtual organ” produces hormones that influence distal organs, including the brain. With its diverse microbial composition, the gut microbiota surpasses the biochemical complexity of traditional endocrine organs ...
Physiologia is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal on physiology published quarterly online by MDPI. Open Access free for readers, with article processing charges (APC) paid by authors or their institutions. High Visibility: indexed within ESCI (Web of Science), AGRIS, and other databases.
Human body structures from a phylogenetic point of view. Liquid biopsy as a new frontier of medicine, including the personalized one. Microbiota/microbiome and its relationship with human body structures. Molecular anatomy: the relationship between shape and function at the molecular level. Neuroanatomy, neurobiology, neuropathology: new ...
Exercise physiology is the science that studies the processes of physical activity and their impact on the body. It usually requires a multidisciplinary approach with a team of experts because of the multiple physiological systems involved. At the cellular level, exercise can trigger a cascade of events that involve metabolic pathways, muscle recruitment and conditioning, neuromuscular ...
The development of China’s national parks is still in the initial stage, and few scholars have studied the effects of soundscapes on human physiology and psychology from the perspective of the auditory senses in national parks. In this study, the Qianjiangyuan National Park System Pilot Area was taken as the research subject, physiological indicators of subjects were collected through a ...
Since human validation is essentially lacking, this study investigated whether operators’ protective clothing offers sufficient protection during a short-term deployment. Twelve professional firefighters were exposed to three radiation levels (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 kW/m 2 ) when wearing certified protective clothing in front of a heat radiation ...
Riboflavin, as an essential coenzyme in human physiology, plays a pivotal role in numerous metabolic actions that sustain good health and vitality. Its significance extends beyond basic metabolic activities, including its involvement in immune function and protection against micro-organisms, highlighting its fundamental importance for human ...
This Special Issue, “Dog–Human Relationships: Behavior, Physiology, and Wellbeing”, will focus on the dog–owner relationship as well as interactions between dogs and humans who are somewhat familiar or totally unfamiliar.
The term “animal model” refers to a non-human species employed in biomedical research due to its capacity to replicate certain biological processes or diseases found in humans. This resemblance allows researchers to use findings from animal studies to understand human physiology and the underlying mechanisms of various diseases [1,2].
Soluble CD163 (sCD163) is a circulating inflammatory mediator, indicative of acute and chronic, systemic and non-systemic inflammatory conditions. It is the cleavage outcome, consisting of almost the entire extracellular domain, of the CD163, a receptor expressed in monocytic lineages. Its expression is proportional to the abundance of CD163+ macrophages. Various mechanisms trigger the ...
