Regular aerobic exercise training has a wide range of beneficial cardiac effects, but recent data also show that acute very strenuous aerobic exercise may impose a transient cardiac exhaustion. The aim of this study was to assess the response to acute high-intensity aerobic exercise on properties of mitochondrial respiration, cardiomyocyte contractile function, Ca2+ handling and transcriptional changes for key proteins facilitating Ca2+ handling and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress responses in type 2 diabetic mice. Diabetic mice were assigned to either sedentary control or an acute bout of exercise, consisting of a 10×4 minutes high-intensity interval treadmill run. Mitochondrial respiration, contractile and Ca2+ handling properties of cardiomyocytes were analysed 1 hour after completion of exercise. Gene expression levels of key Ca2+ handling and ER stress response proteins were measured in cardiac tissue samples harvested 1 hour and 24 hours after exercise. We found no significant changes in mitochondrial respiration, cardiomyocyte contractile function or Ca2+ handling 1 hour after the acute exercise. However, gene expression of Atp2a2, Slc8a1 and Ryr2, encoding proteins involved in cardiomyocyte Ca2+ handling, were all significantly upregulated 24 hours after the acute exercise bout. Acute exercise also altered gene expression of several key proteins in ER stress response and unfolded protein response, including Grp94, total Xbp1, Gadd34, and Atf6. The present results show that despite no significant alterations in functional properties of cardiomyocyte function, Ca2+ handling or mitochondrial respiration following one bout of high intensity aerobic exercise training, the expression of genes involved in Ca2+ handling and key components in ER stress and the unfolded protein response were changed. These transcriptional changes may constitute important steps in initiating adaptive remodelling to exercise training in type 2 diabetes.

Regular exercise enhances endothelial function in older men, but not consistently in estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women. Estradiol treatment improves basal endothelial function and restores improvements in endothelial function (flow-mediated dilation, FMD) to aerobic exercise training in postmenopausal women; however, estradiol treatment is controversial. Resveratrol, an estrogen receptor ligand, enhances exercise training effects on cardiovascular function and nitric oxide (NO) release in animal models, but impairs exercise training effects in men. We conducted a randomized cross-over, double-blinded, placebo-controlled pilot study to determine whether acute (single dose) resveratrol (250-mg tablet) or estradiol (0.05 mg/day transdermal patch) treatment enhances FMD at rest and after a single bout of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise in healthy estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women ( n = 15, 58.1 ± 3.2 yr). FMD was measured before and after (30, 60, and 120 min) a 40-min bout of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise (60–75% peak heart rate) under the respective conditions (separated by 1-2 wk). FMD was higher ( P < 0.05) before exercise and at all post-exercise time points in the resveratrol and estradiol conditions compared to placebo. FMD was increased from baseline by 120 min postexercise in the estradiol condition ( P < 0.001), but not resveratrol or PL conditions. Consistent with our previous findings, estradiol also enhances endothelial function in response to acute endurance exercise. Although resveratrol improved basal FMD, there was no apparent enhancement of FMD to acute exercise and, therefore, may not act as an estradiol mimetic. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The benefits of endurance exercise training on endothelial function are diminished in estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women, but estradiol treatment appears to restore improvements in endothelial function in this group. We show that basal endothelial function is enhanced with both acute estradiol and resveratrol treatments in estrogen-deficient postmenopausal women, but endothelial function is only enhanced following acute endurance exercise with estradiol treatment.

Abstract Introduction Resistant hypertension is a major challenge of modern cardiovascular medicine, as it is a puzzling problem without a clear solution. Exercise training clearly reduces blood pressure (BP) and oxidative stress in patients with hypertension, however evidence is limited regarding resistant hypertension. Purpose To determine the effect of an aerobic exercise training program in BP, angiotensin II and oxidative stress in patients with resistant hypertension. Methods EnRicH is a prospective, two-center, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial with a parallel two-arm group. Sixty patients with resistant hypertension were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to undergo a 12-week aerobic exercise training program (exercise) or usual care (control). The powered primary efficacy measure was 24-hour ambulatory systolic BP change from baseline. Secondary outcome measures included daytime and nighttime ambulatory BP, office BP, cardiorespiratory fitness, and oxidative stress and inflammatory biomarkers: Interferon-gamma (IFN-y), Angiotensin II, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Results Fifty-three patients (exercise n=26, control n=27) completed the study. Patients were mainly women (54.7%), with an office BP of 140.7±15.9/84.2±9.4 mm Hg and taking an average of 4.6 antihypertensive medications (median, 5; range, 3 to 7). At baseline, no differences were found between groups for the study outcomes and patient characteristics. Ambulatory systolic BP was reduced −7.1 mm Hg (95% CI, −12.8 to −1.4; P=0.015) in the exercise group (127.4±12.2 to 121.2±12.2, p=0.007) compared to control group (126.1±17.2 to 126.9±15.2, p=514) over 24-hour. In addition, 24-hour ambulatory diastolic BP (−5.1 mm Hg, −7.9 to −2.3, P=0.001), daytime ambulatory systolic (−8.4 mm Hg, −14.3 to −2.5, P=0.006), and diastolic BP (−5.7 mm Hg, −9.0 to −2.4, P=0.001) were also reduced in the exercise group compared to the control group. There were no differences in the change of nighttime ambulatory BP between groups. Cardiorespiratory fitness improved in the exercise group by 14% (4.7 ml.kg-1.min-1, P&lt;0.001), while it remained unchanged in the control group (−0.37 ml.kg-1.min-1, P=0.442). A significant between-group difference in favor of exercise group was found for IFN-y (−4.3 pg/mL, 95% CI: −7.1 to −1.5; P=0.003), Angiotensin II (−157.0 pg/mL, 95% CI: −288.1 to −25.9; P=0.020), VEGF (10.53 pg/mL, 95% CI: 0.60 to 22.54; P=0.035), and SOD (0.35 pg/mL, 95% CI: 0.10 to 0.58; P=0.009). Conclusions A 12-week moderate intensity aerobic exercise program reduced ambulatory BP, angiotensin II and oxidative stress in patients with resistant hypertension. The antihypertensive effects of exercise in patients with resistant hypertension may be mediated by positive changes in oxidative stress and inflammatory biomarkers.

Vascular oxidative stress contributes to endothelial dysfunction. Aerobic exercise training improves vascular function. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that exercise training would improve the balance of antioxidant to prooxidant enzymes and reduce markers of oxidative stress in aortic endothelial cells (AEC). Female Yucatan miniature pigs either remained sedentary (SED) or were exercise trained (EX) for 16–19 wk. EX pigs had increased AEC SOD-1 protein levels and Cu/Zn SOD activity of the whole aorta compared with SED pigs. Protein levels of other antioxidant enzymes (SOD-2, catalase) were not affected by exercise training. Protein levels of p67phox, a subunit of the prooxidant enzyme NAD(P)H oxidase, were reduced in EX vs. SED AEC. These EX adaptations were associated with lower AEC malondialdehyde levels and decreased phosphorylation of ERK-1/2. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase protein, protein nitrotyrosine content, and heme oxygenase-1 protein were not different in EX vs. SED pigs. We conclude that chronic aerobic exercise training influenced both antioxidant and prooxidant enzymes and decreased indexes of oxidative stress in AEC. These adaptations may contribute to improved endothelial function with exercise training.
