Brief Summary

It is also noteworthy that the imbalance between the production, supply and elimination of especially α-amino acids may contribute to the intensification of the inflammatory response and the subsequent burden of the renal tubules, which may result in damage and developing chronic renal failure. Among the many amino acids used in sports, arginine and its metabolites deserve special attention. The role of arginine appears to increase in specific physiological states associated with disease, injury or significant strain on the body, leading to an increase in the rate of catabolic transformation. Arginine plays a significant role in protein biosynthesis and detoxification processes related to ammonia removal and urea formation .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Systemic inflammation

    Determining whether the 14-day protocol of supplementation with 6 g of citrulline contributes to the reduction of the inflammatory response, concentration of serum proinflammatory cytokines will be measured by multiplex technique

    14 days

  • Post workout kidney damage ,

    Determining whether the 14-day protocol of supplementation with 6 g of citrulline contributes to kidney damage induced by running, concentration of serum and urine markers of kidney function will be measured by standard methods.

    14 days

  • Internal organe damage

    Determining whether the 14-day protocol of supplementation with 6 g of citrulline contributes to the reduction internal organs damage induced by running effort, concentration of serum markers of heart, liver, and kidney and skeletal muscle damage will be measured by multiplex technique.

    14 days

Study Arms (2)

Effect of citrulline supplementation combined with long distance running on systemic inflammation

EXPERIMENTAL

14-day protocol of supplementation with 6 g of citrulline.

Dietary Supplement: Alpha-amino acid derivatives

Effect of placebo supplementation combined with long distance running on systemic inflammation

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

14-day protocol of supplementation with 6 g of placebo.

Dietary Supplement: Alpha-amino acid derivatives

Interventions

Alpha-amino acid derivatives mainly citrulline will be used as a supplement to reduce kidneys and other internal organs damage
