Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an excessive accumulation of fibrous filaments in the extracellular matrix (ECM), in response to an inflammatory reaction that disrupts normal lung architecture and physiology. Collagen is the most abundant fibrous protein in the ECM. The GLP-1 receptor is highly expressed on lung tissue, where his activation plays an essential role in the synthesis and secretion of surfactant proteins. The objective of this study was to elucidate the eff...

Anaerobic threshold (AT) is defined as the point of maximum intensity at which lactate is being produced but does not accumulate in blood during exercise. Training at this intensity is common in athletes. Lactate is currently regard as indicator of effort intensity. It is usually quantified by reflectometry of capillary blood. This procedure although not very invasive, may be annoying during repeated measurements. Saliva is proposed as an alternative sample.<p class="abste...
