Alterations in Adiponectin, Leptin, Resistin, Testosterone, and Cortisol across Eleven Weeks of Training among Division One Collegiate Throwers: A Preliminary Study

Abstract: Cytokine and hormone concentrations can be linked to the manipulation of training variables and to subsequent alterations in performance. Subjects: Nine D-1 collegiate throwers and 4 control subjects participated in this preliminary and exploratory report. Methods: Hormone (testosterone (T) and cortisol (C)) and adipokine (adiponectin, leptin, and resistin) measurements were taken at weeks 1, 7, and 11 for the throwers and weeks 1 and 11 for the control group. The throwers participated in an 11-week periodized… Show more

“…In our study, we observed no change in adiponectin signal intensity in female athletes in comparison to control. Hornsby [ 24 ] found an increase in plasma adiponectin level in concert with decreases in salivary cortisol in female athletes following a training periodization model, although the cytokine changes were relatively small. In our study, the female subjects’ menstrual cycles were not monitored, and Wyskida [ 25 ] reported that adiponectin is not affected by changes in menstrual cycle.…”

“…20,87 These potential negative effects appear to result from high levels of training monotony and strain that may be related to hormonal alterations, such as adipokine alterations, increased cortisol and decreased testosterone, potentially increased inflammation, and perhaps immunosuppression. 20,53,87 Indeed, immunosuppression can occur as a result of rapid increase in training load or long periods of sustained high volumes, and these athletes often are at higher risk of illness. 59 Body composition, training history, achievement level, injury history, and age can all have a considerable impact on response to training loads engaged in by the athlete.…”

“…Plasma adiponectin concentrations are heritable [ 15 ] and associated with genetic variation in the adiponectin gene [ 16 ]. Approximately 40-70% of the change in plasma adiponectin levels is affected by genetic variants [ 12 ].…”
