To determine whether voluntary exercise would lower resting blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SP-SHR), two separate but interrelated investigations were undertaken. The studies were initiated when the animals were 28-35 days of age and after they were assigned to either activity or sedentary cages. The activity cages were connected to transducers and recorders that allowed the monitoring and calculation of frequency, duration, and running speed. The SHR group ran 3-7 km/day intermittently for 12 wk at high speeds (48-68 m/min), which resulted in heart rates in excess of 500 beats/min. When the SHR exercised, they seldom exceeded 33 revolutions/bout (37 m) with the majority being less than 22 revolutions/bout. This type of exercise training significantly lowered, but did not normalize, resting blood pressure by approximately 20 mmHg [nontrained (NT) = 185 +/- 5; trained (T) = 163 +/- 5 mmHg] while increasing maximum O2 consumption (VO2max) (NT = 78 +/- 2.6; T = 95 +/- 2.2 ml X min-1 X kg-1) and endurance run time (NT = 62 +/- 9.0; T = 286 +/- 15.0 min), respectively. Although SP-SHR exhibited comparable patterns of voluntary activity, the effects were not similar. First, after approximately 5 wk of consuming a special Japanese rat chow and a 1% NaCl drinking solution, cerebrovascular lesions occurred and deaths ultimately resulted in both exercising and sedentary groups. Second, although there was statistical evidence for a training effect (higher VO2max, longer VO2 test run times), voluntary exercise had no advantage in either male or female runners in lowering resting blood pressures or in improving their life-spans. Whereas voluntary activity wheel exercise or moderate forced treadmill exercise will lower resting blood pressures in young SHR populations, similar generalizations cannot be made with young SP-SHR rats.  相似文献

To determine whether female Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) hypertensive rats would adapt to chronic treadmill exercise by exhibiting lower resting systolic blood pressures (RSBP), a 12-wk training program was undertaken. Female Dahl salt-resistant (SR) rats were also trained for the same time period a a similar intensity [40-70% maximal O2 consumption (VO2max)] and duration (55 min). Postexperimental treadmill run times and VO2max values [SR: nontrained (NT) 87 +/- 1, trained (T) 97 +/- 2; SS: NT 82 +/- 2, T 92 +/- 3 ml.min-1 X min-1 X kg-1] indicated that the prescribed program had produced a trained state. However, the training program caused no group differences between the SR or the SS and their nontrained controls in measurements associated with sodium chloride intake, fluid consumption, urine production, 24-h sodium excretion, plasma volumes, plasma insulin, or blood volumes. Chronic exercise did significantly lower RSBP in the SR subgroup after 6 wk (NT 123 +/- 4, T 110 +/- 3 mmHg) and 8 wk (NT 120 +/- 4, T 106 +/- 2 mmHg) and remained lower throughout the remaining weeks of the experiment. On the other hand, the RSBP results of the trained SS rats were significantly higher than the nontrained SS rats after 6 wk (NT 155 +/- 8, T 191 +/- 7 mmHg) and were never significantly different than the controls for the remainder of the study.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The influence of endurance training on functional capacity [maximal O2 consumption (VO2 max)], caudal arterial blood pressure, and myocardial capillary density were investigated in normotensive rats and rats made hypertensive using the two-kidney one-clip approach (Goldblatt's hypertension). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to sham (N: 120-140 mmHg), moderately hypertensive (MH = 0.30-mm clips, 150-170 mmHg), or severely hypertensive (SH = 0.25-mm clips, 190-230 mmHg) groups. Rats designated to be runners (T) were exercised on a motor-driven treadmill equal to 50-70% of their VO2 max values for 8-12 wk. Compared with their nontrained (NT) controls, training was associated with significantly higher VO2 max values (12-15%) and muscle cytochrome-c oxidase activities (33-78%). Resting systolic blood pressure was not significantly changed in the N-and MH-T subgroups; however, it was 20-30 mmHg higher in the SH-T subgroup. Mean absolute heart weight for only the N-T group was significantly heavier than their NT controls. However, the mean predicted heart weights (heart wt = 0.639 X body wt of N-NT + 0.001 g) of the two SH groups were significantly higher than expected. The SH-T group had a lower (11%) subepicardial capillary density mean than its NT control and significantly fewer capillaries in the subendocardial region than the other five subgroups. It was concluded that moderate exercise training appeared to be detrimental to rats with severe hypertension because it increased resting blood pressure and decreased myocardial capillary density, even though it improved their functioning capacity.  相似文献

The objective of our study was to compare the cardiovascular effects of moderate exercise training in healthy young (NTS, n=18, 22.9+/-0.44 years) and in hypertensive human subjects (HTS, n=30, 23+/-1.1). The VO(2max) did not significantly differ between groups. HTS of systolic blood pressure (SBP) 148+/-3.6 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure(DBP) 88+/-2.2 mmHg, and NTS of SBP: 128.8 +/- 4 mmHg and DBP: 72 +/- 2.9 mmHg were submitted to moderate dynamic exercise training, at about 50% VO(2max) 3 times per week for one hour, over 3 months. VO(2max) was measured by Astrand's test. Arterial blood pressure was measured with Finapres technique, the stroke volume, cardiac output and arm blood flow were assessed by impedance reography. Variability of SBP and pulse interval values (PI) were estimated by computing the variance and power spectra according to FFT algorithm. After training period significant improvements in VO(2max) were observed in NTS- by 1.92 +/-0.76 and in HTS by 3+/-0.68 ml/kg/min). In HTS significantly decreased: SBP by 19 +/-2.9 mmHg, in DBP by 10.7+/-2 mmHg total peripheral resistance (TPR) by 0.28 +/-0.05 TPR units. The pretraining value of low frequency component power spectra SBP (LF(SPB)) was significantly greater in HTS, compared to NTS. PI variance was lower in HTS, compared to NTS. After physical training, in HTS PI variance increased suggesting a decrease in frequency modulated sympathetic activity and increase in vagal modulation of heart rate in mild hypertension. A major finding of the study is the significant decrease of resting low frequency component SBP power spectrum after training in HTS. The value of LF(SPB) in trained hypertensive subjects normalized to the resting level of LF(SPB) in NTS. Our findings suggest that antihypertensive hemodynamic effects of moderate dynamic physical training are associated with readjustment of the autonomic cardiovascular control system.  相似文献

Systemic O2 transport during maximal exercise at different inspired PO2 (PIO2) values was studied in sodium cyanate-treated (CY) and nontreated (NT) rats. CY rats exhibited increased O2 affinity of Hb (exercise O2 half-saturation pressure of Hb = 27.5 vs. 42.5 Torr), elevated blood Hb concentration, pulmonary hypertension, blunted hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, and normal ventilatory response to exercise. Maximal rate of convective O2 transport was higher and tissue O2 extraction was lower in CY than in NT rats. The relative magnitude of these opposing changes, which determined the net effect of cyanate on maximal O2 uptake (VO2 max), varied at different PIO2: VO2 max (ml. min-1. kg-1) was lower in normoxia (72.8 +/- 1.9 vs. 81. 1 +/- 1.2), the same at 70 Torr PIO2 (55.4 +/- 1.4 vs. 54.1 +/- 1.4), and higher at 55 Torr PIO2 (48 +/- 0.7 vs. 40.4 +/- 1.9) in CY than in NT rats. The beneficial effect of cyanate on VO2 max at 55 Torr PIO2 disappeared when Hb concentration was lowered to normal. It is concluded that the effect of cyanate on VO2 max depends on the relative changes in blood O2 convection and tissue O2 extraction, which vary at different PIO2. Although uptake of O2 by the blood in the lungs is enhanced by cyanate, its release at the tissues is limited, probably because of a reduction in the capillary-to-tissue PO2 diffusion gradient secondary to the increased O2 affinity of Hb.  相似文献

This paper evaluates the effect of the long-term intake of a hydrolysate of egg white with pepsin (HEW), with a potent angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activity, on the development of hypertension of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). After being weaned, male 3-week-old SHR were randomly divided into five groups that were given until the 20th week of life the following drinking fluids: (1) tap water, (2) non-treated egg white 1 g/kg/day, (3) captopril 100 mg/kg/day, (4) HEW 0.5 g/kg/day, and (5) HEW 1 g/kg/day. From the 20th to 25th week of life, animals from all groups were given tap water. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured weekly in the rats, from the 6th to 25th week of life, by the tail cuff method. Development of hypertension was attenuated in the groups treated with captopril and HEW (P<0.001 vs. the group that drunk tap water). At the 20th week of life, the arterial blood pressure values of the different groups of rats were: tap water (SBP = 219.5 +/- 5.7, DBP = 167 +/- 3.7), non-treated egg white (SBP = 206.4 +/- 1.43, DBP = 166.4 +/- 4.9), captopril (SBP = 131.7 +/- 2.74, DBP = 91.5 +/- 1.62), HEW 0.5 g/kg/day (SBP = 182.9 +/- 4.64, DBP = 127.5 +/- 2.1) and HEW 1 g/kg/day (SBP = 177.7 +/- 4.72, DBP = 120.1 +/- 2.4). SBP and DBP increased in the treated SHR when the corresponding antihypertensive treatment was removed. In spite of this, SBP remained lower in the SHR that had received captopril and HEW than in the SHR of the control groups (P<0.05). The present results suggest that HEW could be used as a functional food with antihypertensive activity.  相似文献

The hemodynamic response to maximal exercise was determined in rats with a chronic myocardial infarction (MI) that were subjected to 6-8 wk of high-intensity sprint training (HIST) or limited exercise activity (sedentary control). Training was performed 6 days/wk and consisted of five 1-min bouts of treadmill running at work loads (15% grade, 97 m/min) in excess of the animal's maximal O2 uptake (VO2max). The left ventricular infarct size for the HIST and sedentary control rats was 35 +/- 4 and 34 +/- 3% of the total endocardial circumference, respectively. VO2max was significantly greater for MI rats subjected to the HIST paradigm than for sedentary control rats. This increase in VO2max was due to an increase in the maximal stroke volume that could be generated by the HIST rat during exercise, inasmuch as the maximal heart rate response and the ability to extract O2 from the blood were similar between the two groups of rats. Citrate synthase activities measured in the plantaris muscle of the HIST and sedentary control rats were similar. These results suggest that the increase in VO2max produced with HIST in MI rats may be linked to changes in central cardiac function, as indicated by the increase in maximal stroke volume that could be generated by the MI rat during maximal exercise conditions.  相似文献

The objectives of these experiments were 1) to describe the effect of maximum treadmill exercise on gas exchange, arterial blood gases, and arterial blood oxygenation in rats acclimated for 3 wk to simulated altitude (SA, barometric pressure 370-380 Torr) and 2) to determine the contribution of acid-base changes to the changes in arterial blood oxygenation of hypoxic exercise. Maximum O2 uptake (VO2max) was measured in four groups of rats: 1) normoxic controls run in normoxia (Nx), 2) normoxic controls run in acute hypoxia [AHx inspiratory PO2 (PIO2) approximately 70 Torr], 3) SA rats run in hypoxia (3WHx, PIO2 approximately 70 Torr), and 4) SA rats run in normoxia (ANx). VO2max (ml STPD.min-1.kg-1) was 70.8 +/- 0.9 in Nx, 46.4 +/- 1.9 in AHx, 52.6 +/- 1.1 in 3WHx, and 70.0 +/- 2.4 in ANx. Exercise resulted in acidosis, hypocapnia, and elevated blood lactate in all groups. Although blood lactate increased less in 3WHx and ANx, pH was the same or lower than in Nx and AHx, reflecting the low buffer capacity of SA. In AHx and 3WHx, arterial PO2 increased with exercise; however, O2 saturation of hemoglobin in arterial blood (SaO2) decreased. In vitro measurements of the Bohr shift suggest that SaO2 decreased as a result of a decrease in hemoglobin O2 affinity. The data indicate that several features of hypoxic exercise in this model are similar to those seen in humans, with the exception of the mechanism of decrease in SaO2, which, in humans, appears to be due to incomplete alveolar-capillary equilibration.  相似文献

Ten foxhounds were studied during maximal and submaximal exercise on a motor-driven treadmill before and after 8-12 wk of training. Training consisted of working at 80% of maximal heart rate 1 h/day, 5 days/wk. Maximal O2 consumption (VO2max) increased 28% from 113.7 +/- 5.5 to 146.1 +/- 5.4 ml O2 X min-1 X kg-1, pre- to posttraining. This increase in VO2max was due primarily to a 27% increase in maximal cardiac output, since maximal arteriovenous O2 difference increased only 4% above pretraining values. Mean arterial pressure during maximal exercise did not change from pre- to posttraining, with the result that calculated systemic vascular resistance (SVR) decreased 20%. There were no training-induced changes in O2 consumption, cardiac output, arteriovenous O2 difference, mean arterial pressure, or SVR at any level of submaximal exercise. However, if post- and pretraining values are compared, heart rate was lower and stroke volume was greater at any level of submaximal exercise. Venous lactate concentrations during a given level of submaximal exercise were significantly lower during posttraining compared with pretraining, but venous lactate concentrations during maximal exercise did not change as a result of exercise training. These results indicate that a program of endurance training will produce a significant increase in VO2max in the foxhound. This increase in VO2max is similar to that reported previously for humans and rats but is derived primarily from central (stroke volume) changes rather than a combination of central and peripheral (O2 extraction) changes.  相似文献

To examine whether cardiac hypertrophy is associated with changes in beta-adrenoceptor signal transduction mechanisms, pressure overload (PO) was induced by occlusion of the abdominal aorta and volume overload (VO) by creation of an aortocaval shunt for 4 and 24 wk in rats. After hemodynamic assessment of the animals, the left ventricular (LV) particulate fraction was isolated for measurement of beta(1)-adrenoceptors and adenylyl cyclase activity, and cardiomyocytes were isolated for monitoring of the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration. Although PO and VO produced cardiac hypertrophy and increased LV end-diastolic pressure at 4 wk, cardiac function was increased in animals subjected to PO but remained unaltered in animals subjected to VO. Cardiac hypertrophy and increased LV end-diastolic pressure were associated with depressed cardiac function at 24 wk of PO or VO, but clinical signs of congestive heart failure were evident only in animals subjected to VO. Isoproterenol-induced increases in cardiac function, activation of adenylyl cyclase activity, and increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, as well as beta(1)-adrenoceptor density, were unaltered by PO at 4 wk, augmented by VO at 4 wk, and attenuated by PO and VO at 24 wk. These results suggest that alterations in beta(1)-adrenoceptor signal transduction are dependent on the type and stage of cardiac hypertrophy.  相似文献

The influence of exercise training on the resting caudal arterial blood pressures (RBP) of hypertensive rats is unclear despite numerous investigations by different investigators. To determine whether RBP values were influenced by the intensity and the initial age of the animal at the time of training, several studies were undertaken that involved more than 100 rats. When male and female rats were endurance trained for 24 wk at an O2 consumption in excess of 75% of their maximum (Vo2 max), RBP results from nontrained (NT) or trained (T) animals were not significantly different even though at several time periods the T animals had higher resting pressures. However, when exercising rats at an intensity level representing 40-60% of their Vo2 max, the T groups had consistently lower RBP than their NT controls during the majority of the experimental time periods. In addition exercising young (2-3 wk old) hypertensive-prone rats at a moderate intensity was associated with lower RBP within 4-6 wk after the initiation of training; however, exercise training could not normalize RBP. Reduced dosages (85% of normal) of antihypertensive medication, when combined with moderate training, was also associated with lower and "normal" RBP in male but not female rats. We conclude that moderate exercise at an early age when combined with subnormal dosages of antihypertensive medication holds promise for the normalization of RBP in male hypertensive rats of a genetic origin.  相似文献

The objective of these experiments was to determine whether living and training in moderate hypoxia (MHx) confers an advantage on maximal normoxic exercise capacity compared with living and training in normoxia. Rats were acclimatized to and trained in MHx [inspired PO2 (PI(O2)) = 110 Torr] for 10 wk (HTH). Rats living in normoxia trained under normoxic conditions (NTN) at the same absolute work rate: 30 m/min on a 10 degrees incline, 1 h/day, 5 days/wk. At the end of training, rats exercised maximally in normoxia. Training increased maximal O2 consumption (VO2 max) in NTN and HTH above normoxic (NS) and hypoxic (HS) sedentary controls. However, VO2 max and O2 transport variables were not significantly different between NTN and HTH: VO2 max 86.6 +/- 1.5 vs. 86.8 +/- 1.1 ml x min(-1) x kg(-1); maximal cardiac output 456 +/- 7 vs. 443 +/- 12 ml x min(-1) x kg(-1); tissue blood O2 delivery (cardiac output x arterial O2 content) 95 +/- 2 vs. 96 +/- 2 ml x min(-1) x kg(-1); and O2 extraction ratio (arteriovenous O2 content difference/arterial O2 content) 0.91 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.90 +/- 0.01. Mean pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa, mmHg) was significantly higher in HS vs. NS (P < 0.05) at rest (24.5 +/- 0.8 vs. 18.1 +/- 0.8) and during maximal exercise (32.0 +/- 0.9 vs. 23.8 +/- 0.6). Training in MHx significantly attenuated the degree of pulmonary hypertension, with Ppa being significantly lower at rest (19.3 +/- 0.8) and during maximal exercise (29.2 +/- 0.5) in HTH vs. HS. These data indicate that, despite maintaining equal absolute training intensity levels, acclimatization to and training in MHx does not confer significant advantages over normoxic training. On the other hand, the pulmonary hypertension associated with acclimatization to hypoxia is reduced with hypoxic exercise training.  相似文献

The hemodynamic response to maximal exercise was determined in rats that were subjected to high-intensity sprint training (HIST) and rats that served as sedentary controls. Training consisted of five 1-min bouts of treadmill running at work loads (15% grade, 97 m/min) in excess of the animals' maximal O2 uptake (VO2max) interspersed with 90 s of rest. Training was performed 6 days/wk for 6 wk. After the training regimen, all rats were acutely instrumented with catheters in the right carotid artery and right ventricle. O2 uptakes, hemodynamic parameters, arterial and mixed venous O2 concentrations, blood gases, and acid-base status were determined at rest and during submaximal and maximal exercise. Results demonstrated that VO2max of HIST rats was significantly greater than that found for sedentary control rats. This increase in VO2max was due to an increase in maximal cardiac output (Qmax), since maximal arteriovenous O2 difference was similar between trained and sedentary rats. The increase in Qmax was due to an increase in maximal stroke volume (SVmax), because maximal heart rate in trained rats was similar to that in sedentary control rats. Citrate synthase and phosphofructokinase activities measured in the white gastrocnemius, plantaris, and soleus muscles of trained and sedentary rats were similar. These results suggest that the increase in VO2max produced with HIST in rats is strongly linked to an increase in central cardiac function as indicated by an increase in Qmax and SVmax.  相似文献

We examined the hemodynamic factors associated with the lower maximal O2 consumption (VO2max) in older formerly elite distance runners. Heart rate and VO2 were measured during submaximal and maximal treadmill exercise in 11 master [66 +/- 8 (SD) yr] and 11 young (32 +/- 5 yr) male runners. Cardiac output was determined using acetylene rebreathing at 30, 50, 70, and 85% VO2max. Maximal cardiac output was estimated using submaximal stroke volume and maximal heart rate. VO2max was 36% lower in master runners (45.0 +/- 6.9 vs. 70.4 +/- 8.0 ml.kg-1.min-1, P less than or equal to 0.05), because of both a lower maximal cardiac output (18.2 +/- 3.5 vs. 25.4 +/- 1.7 l.min-1) and arteriovenous O2 difference (16.6 +/- 1.6 vs. 18.7 +/- 1.4 ml O2.100 ml blood-1, P less than or equal to 0.05). Reduced maximal heart rate (154.4 +/- 17.4 vs. 185 +/- 5.8 beats.min-1) and stroke volume (117.1 +/- 16.1 vs. 137.2 +/- 8.7 ml.beat-1) contributed to the lower cardiac output in the older athletes (P less than or equal 0.05). These data indicate that VO2max is lower in master runners because of a diminished capacity to deliver and extract O2 during exercise.  相似文献

To determine whether aerobic conditioning alters the orthostatic responses of older subjects, cardiovascular performance was monitored during graded lower body negative pressure in nine highly trained male senior athletes (A) aged 59-73 yr [maximum O2 uptake (VO2 max) = 52.4 +/- 1.7 ml.kg-1 x min-1] and nine age-matched control subjects (C) (VO2 max = 31.0 +/- 2.9 ml.kg-1 x min-1). Cardiac volumes were determined from gated blood pool scintigrams by use of 99mTc-labeled erythrocytes. During lower body negative pressure (0 to -50 mmHg), left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volume indexes and stroke volume index decreased in both groups while heart rate increased. The decreases in cardiac volumes and mean arterial pressure and the increase in heart rate between 0 and -50 mmHg were significantly less in A than in C. For example, end-diastolic volume index decreased by 32 +/- 4 ml in C vs. 14 +/- 2 ml in A (P < 0.01), mean arterial pressure declined 7 +/- 5 mmHg in C and increased by 5 +/- 3 mmHg in A (P < 0.05), and heart rate increased 13 +/- 3 beats/min in C and 7 +/- 1 beats/min in A (P < 0.05). These data suggest that increased VO2 max among older men is associated with improved orthostatic responses.  相似文献

Acute hypoxia (AH) reduces maximal O2 consumption (VO2 max), but after acclimatization, and despite increases in both hemoglobin concentration and arterial O2 saturation that can normalize arterial O2 concentration ([O2]), VO2 max remains low. To determine why, seven lowlanders were studied at VO2 max (cycle ergometry) at sea level (SL), after 9-10 wk at 5,260 m [chronic hypoxia (CH)], and 6 mo later at SL in AH (FiO2 = 0.105) equivalent to 5,260 m. Pulmonary and leg indexes of O2 transport were measured in each condition. Both cardiac output and leg blood flow were reduced by approximately 15% in both AH and CH (P < 0.05). At maximal exercise, arterial [O2] in AH was 31% lower than at SL (P < 0.05), whereas in CH it was the same as at SL due to both polycythemia and hyperventilation. O2 extraction by the legs, however, remained at SL values in both AH and CH. Although at both SL and in AH, 76% of the cardiac output perfused the legs, in CH the legs received only 67%. Pulmonary VO2 max (4.1 +/- 0.3 l/min at SL) fell to 2.2 +/- 0.1 l/min in AH (P < 0.05) and was only 2.4 +/- 0.2 l/min in CH (P < 0.05). These data suggest that the failure to recover VO2 max after acclimatization despite normalization of arterial [O2] is explained by two circulatory effects of altitude: 1) failure of cardiac output to normalize and 2) preferential redistribution of cardiac output to nonexercising tissues. Oxygen transport from blood to muscle mitochondria, on the other hand, appears unaffected by CH.  相似文献

The hemodynamic response to maximal exercise was determined in sedentary and trained rats with a chronic myocardial infarction (MI) produced by coronary artery ligation and in rats that underwent sham operations (SHAM). Infarct size in the MI groups of rats comprised 28-29% of the total left ventricle and resulted in both metabolic and hemodynamic changes that suggested that these animals had moderate compensated heart failure. The training regimen used in the present study produced significant increases in maximal O2 uptake (VO2max) when expressed in absolute terms (ml/min) or when normalized for body weight (ml.min-1.kg-1) and consisted of treadmill running at work loads that were equivalent to 70-80% of the animal's VO2max for a period of 60 min/day, 5 days/wk over an 8- to 10-wk interval. This training paradigm produced two major cardiocirculatory adaptations in the MI rat that had not been elicited previously when using a training paradigm of a lower intensity. First, the decrement in the maximal heart rate response to exercise (known as "chronotropic incompetence") found in the sedentary MI rat was completely reversed by endurance training. Second, the downregulation of cardiac myosin isozyme composition from the fast ATPase V1 isoform toward the slower ATPase (V2 and V3) isoforms in the MI rat was partially reversed by endurance training. These cardiac adaptations occurred without a significant increase in left ventricular pump function as an increase in maximal cardiac output (Qmax) and maximal stroke volume (SVmax) did not occur in the trained MI rat.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Stroke volume (SV) increases above the resting level during exercise and then declines at higher intensities of exercise in sedentary subjects. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an attenuation of the decline in SV at higher exercise intensities contributes to the increase in maximal cardiac output (Qmax) that occurs in response to endurance training. We studied six men and six women, 25 +/- 1 (SE) yr old, before and after 12 wk of endurance training (3 days/wk running for 40 min, 3 days/wk interval training). Cardiac output was measured at rest and during exercise at 50 and 100% of maximal O2 uptake (Vo2max) by the C2H2-rebreathing method. VO2max was increased by 19% (from 2.7 +/- 0.2 to 3.2 +/- 0.3 l/min, P less than 0.001) in response to the training program. Qmax was increased by 12% (from 18.1 +/- 1 to 20.2 +/- 1 l/min, P less than 0.01), SV at maximal exercise was increased by 16% (from 97 +/- 6 to 113 +/- 8 ml/beat, P less than 0.001) and maximal heart rate was decreased by 3% (from 185 +/- 2 to 180 +/- 2 beats/min, P less than 0.01) after training. The calculated arteriovenous O2 content difference at maximal exercise was increased by 7% (14.4 +/- 0.4 to 15.4 +/- 0.4 ml O2/100 ml blood) after training. Before training, SV at VO2max was 9% lower than during exercise at 50% VO2max (P less than 0.05). In contrast, after training, the decline in SV between 50 and 100% VO2max was only 2% (P = NS). Furthermore, SV was significantly higher (P less than 0.01) at 50% VO2max after training than it was before. Left ventricular hypertrophy was evident, as determined by two-dimensional echocardiography at the completion of training. The results indicate that in young healthy subjects the training-induced increase in Qmax is due in part to attenuation of the decrease in SV as exercise intensity is increased.  相似文献

Before the start and after 4, 8, and 12 wk of a treadmill training program male rats were randomly selected and tested for running performance, maximum O2 consumption (VO2 max), running economy (VO2 submax), and skeletal muscle oxidative capacity (QO2). Data were compared with values from untrained weight-matched control rats. Maximum running time to exhaustion increased significantly (P less than 0.01) by 4 wk and again at 12 wk (P less than 0.01). Submaximal running endurance increased by 120 (4 wk), 320 (8 wk), and 372% (12 wk) (P less than 0.01). VO2 max was increased only at 12 wk (86.0 +/- 2.7 vs. 75.5 +/- 1.9 ml O2.kg-1.min-1); VO2 submax was decreased at 4 and 8 wk but not at 12 wk. Soleus QO2 was unchanged after 4 wk of training and increased by 50% at 8 wk and by 77% at 12 wk. This study is the first to show a dissociation in both the time course and the magnitude of longitudinal changes in VO2 max, VO2 submax, QO2, and maximal and submaximal running performance. We conclude that factors other than those measured explain the improvement in running performance that resulted from endurance training in these rats.  相似文献

Intrinsic skeletal muscle abnormalities decrease muscular endurance in chronic heart failure (CHF). In CHF patients, the number of skeletal muscle Na(+)-K(+) pumps that have a high affinity for ouabain (i.e., the concentration of [(3)H]ouabain binding sites) is reduced, and this reduction is correlated with peak oxygen uptake. The present investigation determined whether the concentration of skeletal muscle [(3)H]ouabain binding sites found during CHF is related to 1) severity of the disease state, 2) muscle fiber type composition, and/or 3) endurance capacity. Four muscles were chosen that represented slow-twitch oxidative (SO), fast-twitch oxidative glycolytic (FOG), fast-twitch glycolytic (FG), and mixed fiber types. Measurements were obtained 8-10 wk postsurgery in 23 myocardial infarcted (MI) and 18 sham-operated control (sham) rats. Eighteen rats had moderate left ventricular (LV) dysfunction [LV end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) < 20 mmHg], and five had severe LV dysfunction (LVEDP > 20 mmHg). Rats with severe LV dysfunction had significant pulmonary congestion and were likely in a chronic state of compensated congestive failure as indicated by an approximately twofold increase in both lung and right ventricle weight. Run time to fatigue and maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2 max)) were significantly reduced ( downward arrow39 and downward arrow28%, respectively) in the rats with severe LV dysfunction and correlated with the magnitude of LV dysfunction as indicated by LVEDP (run time: r = 0.60, n = 21, P < 0.01 and VO(2 max): r = 0.93, n = 13, P < 0.01). In addition, run time to fatigue was significantly correlated with VO(2 max) (r = 0.87, n = 15, P < 0.01). The concentration of [(3)H]ouabain binding sites (B(max)) was significantly reduced (21-28%) in the three muscles comprised primarily of oxidative fibers [soleus: 259 +/- 14 vs. 188 +/- 17; plantaris: 295 +/- 17 vs. 229 +/- 18; red portion of gastrocnemius: 326 +/- 17 vs. 260 +/- 14 pmol/g wet tissue wt]. In addition, B(max) was significantly correlated with VO(2 max) (soleus: r = 0.54, n = 15, P < 0.05; plantaris: r = 0.59, n = 15, P < 0.05; red portion of gastrocnemius: r = 0.65, n = 15, P < 0.01). These results suggest that downregulation of Na(+)-K(+) pumps that possess a high affinity for ouabain in oxidative skeletal muscle may play an important role in the exercise intolerance that attends severe LV dysfunction in CHF.  相似文献
