Effect of exercise training on cardiac mitochondrial respiration, biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy in ischemic heart disease

Abstract

ObjectiveCardiac mitochondrial dysfunction was found in ischemic heart disease (IHD). Hence, this study determined the effects of exercise training (ET) on cardiac mitochondrial respiration and cardiac mitochondrial quality control in IHD.MethodsA narrative synthesis was conducted after searching animal studies written in English in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE) until December 2020. Studies that used aerobic exercise as an intervention for at least 3 weeks and had at least normal, negative (sedentary IHD), and positive (exercise-trained IHD) groups were included. The CAMARADES checklist was used to check the quality of the included studies.ResultsThe 10 included studies (CAMARADES score: 6–7/10) used swimming or treadmill exercise for 3–8 weeks. Seven studies showed that ET ameliorated cardiac mitochondrial respiratory function as manifested by decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and increased complexes I-V activity, superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), respiratory control ratio (RCR), NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1 and 6 (ND1/6), Cytochrome B (CytB), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Ten studies showed that ET improved cardiac mitochondrial quality control in IHD as manifested by enhanced and/or controlled mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy. Four other studies showed that ET resulted in better cardiac mitochondrial physiological characteristics.ConclusionExercise training could improve cardiac mitochondrial functions, including respiration, biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy in IHD.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=226817, identifier: CRD42021226817.

Cardiovascular protection of YiyiFuzi powder and the potential mechanisms through modulating mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum interactions

“…In recent years, the relationship between mitochondria and cardiomyocyte energy metabolism has gradually become a hot topic in clinical research. Efficient mitochondrial respiration is essential for ATP synthesis which preserves the energy supply ( Aon et al, 2015 ; Viloria et al, 2022 ), reduces oxidative stress ( Tsutsui et al, 2009 ; Kowalczyk et al, 2021 ), and prevents heart damage ( Powers et al, 2014 ). CSEs have been shown to reduce the consumption of reducing sugars by the probiotic bacterium L. reuter i while increasing its growth ( Yang et al, 2022c ).…”

Mechanisms and benefits of cardiac rehabilitation in individuals with stroke: emerging role of its impact on improving cardiovascular and neurovascular health

“…In addition. exercise training has multiple other beneficial effects including improving endothelial function, and cardiac mitochondrial function ( 78 , 109 , 110 ). Thus, the promotion of a healthy lifestyle including aerobic exercise as prescribed in cardiac rehabilitation plays a critical role in optimizing cardiometabolic health in patients with vascular diseases (e.g., cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vascular disease) ( 111 ).…”
