ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Regular physical exercise is known to protect endothelial integrity. It has been proposed that acute exercise-induced changes of the (anti-)oxidative system influence early (glycocalyx shedding) and sustained endothelial activation (shedding of endothelial cells, ECs) as well as endothelial-cell repair by circulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HPCs). However, results are not conclusive and data in trained participants performing different exercise modalities is lacking.DESIGN:
Eighteen healthy, well-trained participants (9 runners, 9 cyclists; age 29.7⯱â¯4.2 yrs) performed a strenuous acute exercise session consisting of 4 bouts of 4-min high-intensity with decreasing power profile and 3-min low-intensity in-between.METHODS:
Average power/speed of intense phases was 85% of the peak achieved in a previous incremental test. Before and shortly after exercise, total oxidative and antioxidative capacities (TAC), shedding of syndecan-1, heparan sulfate, hyaluronan, ECs, and circulating HPCs were investigated.RESULTS:
TAC decreased from 1.81⯱â¯0.42â¯nmol/L to 1.47⯱â¯0.23â¯nmol/L post-exercise (pâ¯=â¯0.010) only in runners. Exercise-induced early and sustained endothelial activation were enhanced post-exercise- syndecan-1 103.2⯱â¯63.3â¯ng/mL to 111.3⯱â¯71.3â¯ng/mL, heparan sulfate from 2637.9⯱â¯800.1â¯ng/mL to 3197.1⯱â¯1416.3â¯ng/mL, both pâ¯<â¯0.05; hyaluronan 84.3⯱â¯21.8â¯ng/mL to 121.4⯱â¯29.4â¯ng/mL, ECs from 6.6⯱â¯4.5 cells/µL to 9.5⯱â¯6.2 cells/µL, both pâ¯<â¯0.01; results were not different between exercise modalities and negatively related to TAC concentrations post-exercise. HPC proportions and self-renewal ability were negatively, while EC concentrations were positively associated with circulating hyaluronan concentrations.CONCLUSIONS:
These results highlight the importance of the antioxidative system to prevent the endothelium from acute exercise-induced vascular injury - independent of exercise modality - in well-trained participants. Endothelial-cell repair is associated with hyluronan signaling, possibly a similar mechanism as in wound repair.Palavras-chave
