Metabolismo de glicose em gêmeos monozigóticos discordantes para aptidão cardiorrespiratória

Abstract: In this case-control study (discordant monozygotic twins), the less active co-twins were characterized by higher fasting plasma glucose levels. This implies that poor cardiorespiratory fitness can be associated with defective glucose metabolism regardless of genetic factors.

“…Fifty-four twin pairs (35 girls and 19 boys) attended clinical and evaluation sessions. Parental testing by microsatellite analysis was performed as previously described [ 23 ] and revealed that the sample evaluated had 38 MZ twin pairs and 16 dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs. In the study, only MZ twin pairs were included (24 girls and 14 boys, 14.3 ± 2.1 years old; 51.4 ± 12.9 kg; 158.2 ± 10.6 cm).…”

“…Microsatellite analysis was carried out by PCR using the Identifiler commercial kit, according to the manufacturer's instructions (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, EUA). This assay allows the genotyping of 15 multiple informative genetic markers (CSF1PO, D2S1338, D3S1358, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, D5S51, FGA, TH01, TPOX, VWF, and AMELXloci), which allows for the identification of monozygotic and dizygotic twins [ 23 ].…”

“…There is evidence that the best cardiorespiratory fitness caused by physical exercise exhibits a dose-response relationship, implying improvements in the lipid and glycemic profiles and body composition, as well as generating general health benefits (Dias et al, 2011;McKinney et al, 2016;Oliveira et al, 2014). Queiroga et al (2013) demonstrated that MZ twins discordant for cardiorespiratory fitness presented differences in glycemic metabolism, regardless of genetic factors. However, despite the significant number of studies that have analyzed these factors, few studies have used twins discordant for physical exercise and evaluated the effects on metabolic risk factors (Queiroga et al, 2013).…”
