Moderate exercise training does not worsen left ventricle remodeling and function in untreated severe hypertensive rats

Abstract: Exercise training and hypertension induced cardiac hypertrophy but modulate differently left ventricle (LV) function. This study set out to evaluate cardiac adaptations induced by moderate exercise training in normotensive and untreated severe hypertensive rats. Four groups of animals were studied: normotensive (Ctl) and severe hypertensive (HT) Wistar rats were assigned to be sedentary (Sed) or perform a moderate exercise training (Ex) over a 10-wk period. Severe hypertension was induced in rat by a two-kidne… Show more

“…In the present study, ANG-(1-7) infusion did not show any effect on LV functions. In fact, the 2K1C hypertensive model may not be appropriate to evaluate the effect of ANG-(1-7) on LV functions as cardiac functions were intact in 2K1C rats as observed by us and other studies (4,53).…”

“…THE NEWLY DISCOVERED renin-angiotensin system (RAS) axisangiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/angiotensin- (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) [ANG-(1-7)]/Mas receptor, coined as a counteregulatory axis to ACE/ANG II/angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT 1 R), is considered as an important core factor in cardiovascular pathophysiology (8,16). ACE2 metabolizes ANG II into ANG-(1-7), one of the major pathways for ANG-(1-7) production among others (8,11,16,19).…”

“…These alterations increase flow and O 2 extraction, as well as improving the autonomic control of the circulation. [1][2][3][4][5][6] The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAS) is a widely distributed regulatory system, with hormonal and intacrine functions in many tissues. [7][8][9][10] Angiotensin II (AngII) plays an important role in the control of water electrolyte and blood pressure.…”

“…Rakusan et al (56) underwent the mouse will 2K1C a swimming protocol with moderate intensity for only 6 weeks and did not observe BP reduction after training. Boissier et al (57) used 70% of maximum effort achieved on a treadmill for mice to prescribe 10 weeks of APT and did not obtain attenuation of hypertension in this model. However, it is important to note that there was a decrease in pulse pressure in two of the studies cited above, which could be associated will decrease in arterial stiffness, suggesting that APT may improve vascular compliance in this experimental model.…”
