Background and aims: Soluble or circulating form of Klotho (i.e., anti-aging and longevity protein) has biological effects on various body cells and tissues. Considering the role of exercise training on protective proteins, the present study aimed to investigate and compare the effects of short-term high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on plasma levels of Klotho, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and malondialdehyde (MDA). Methods: In this study, 24 male Wistar rats with a weight range of 250-300 g and 8-10 weeks old were randomly divided into control, HIIT, and MICT groups. Training included five consecutive days on the treadmill. HIIT including 6×2 minutes high intermittence with 85%-90% Vo2 max and 5×2 minutes slow intermittence (active recovery) with 55%-60% Vo2 max. MICT program was performed at 70% Vo2 max that total distance running was the same for the HIIT group. Then, the plasma levels of Klotho, TAC, and MDA were measured by ELISA assay. Finally, one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: Based on the results, a significant increase was observed in plasma levels of Klotho and TAC in both HIIT and MICT groups compared to the control group (P<0.001) while these changes were significantly more dominant in the HIIT group compared to MICT group (P=0.024). However, the results demonstrated no significant difference between the groups regarding MDA (P=0.109). Contrarily, the finding revealed a significant positive correlation between Klotho and TAC (r=0.79, 0.83, 0.79 in control, HIIT, and MICT groups, respectively, P<0.05), whereas a significant negative association between Klotho with MDA within all the groups (r= -0.78, - 0.86, and -0.81). Conclusion: In general, even short-term aerobic exercise training, especially HIIT increases circulating Klotho and TAC, therefore, this can confirm the positive effects of the training-induced exercise.

Combined exercise training (CT) including aerobic plus resistance exercises could be more effective in comparison with aerobic exercise (AT) alone in reducing blood pressure variability (BPV) in hypertensive patients. We report that CT was indeed more effective than AT in reducing short-term BPV, and both exercise modalities reduced BP levels to the same extent. CT appears to be a more appropriate exercise modality if the objective is to reduce BPV in addition to BP levels.

McAllister, Richard M., and M. Harold Laughlin.Short-term exercise training alters responses of porcine femoral and brachial arteries. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(5): 1438–1444, 1997.—The primary purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that short-term exercise training enhances endothelium-dependent relaxation of porcine femoral and brachial arteries. Miniature swine ran on a treadmill for 1 h at 3.5 miles/h, twice daily, for 7 consecutive days (Trn; n = 8). Compared with sedentary controls (Sed; n = 7), Trn swine exhibited increased skeletal muscle citrate synthase activity ( P < 0.05). Vascular rings ∼3 mm in axial length were prepared from segments of femoral and brachial arteries, and responses to vasoactive agents were determined in vitro. Sensitivity to bradykinin (BK) was enhanced in brachial vascular rings from Trn swine compared with those from Sed swine, as indicated by lower concentration of vasorelaxing agent eliciting 50% of maximal response values [Sed, 8.63 ± 0.09 (−log M); Trn, 9.07 ± 0.13; P < 0.05]. This difference between groups was preserved in brachial rings in which formation of nitric oxide and vasodilator prostaglandins were inhibited [Sed, 8.57 ± 0.17 (−log M); Trn, 8.97 ± 0.13; P < 0.05]. Sensitivity to BK was not different between Sed and Trn in femoral arterial rings. Relaxation responses to the calcium ionophore A-23187 and sodium nitroprusside were not altered with training. Femoral and brachial arterial rings from Trn swine, compared with those from Sed swine, exhibited augmented vasocontraction across a range of concentrations and increased sensitivity to norepinephrine (all P < 0.05). These findings indicate that responses of porcine femoral and brachial arteries change in response to short-term training. Together with findings from previous studies involving longer term training, our data suggest that vascular adaptations may differ at different time points during long-term endurance exercise training.

This investigation examined the effects of short-term exercise training on insulin-stimulated GLUT-4 glucose transporter translocation and glucose transport activity in rat adipose cells. Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to a sedentary (Sed) or swim training group (Sw, 4 days; final 3 days: 2 × 3 h/day). Adipose cell size decreased significantly but minimally (∼20%), whereas total GLUT-4 increased by 30% in Sw vs. Sed rats. Basal 3- O-methyl-d-[14C]glucose transport was reduced by 62%, whereas maximally insulin-stimulated (MIS) glucose transport was increased by 36% in Sw vs. Sed rats. MIS cell surface GLUT-4 photolabeling was 44% higher in the Sw vs. Sed animals, similar to the increases observed in MIS glucose transport activity and total GLUT-4. These results suggest that increases in total GLUT-4 and GLUT-4 translocation to the cell surface contribute to the increase in MIS glucose transport with short-term exercise training. In addition, the results suggest that the exercise training-induced adaptations in glucose transport occur more rapidly than previously thought and with minimal changes in adipose cell size.
