Abstrakt: This study investigated the changes in myocardial myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms, MHC-α and MHC-β composition in young healthy rodents following endurance training, with and without post-exercise cold-water immersion (CWI). Male rats were either trained on a treadmill for 10 weeks with (CWI) or without (Ex) regular CWI after each running session, or left sedentary (CON). Left ventricular mRNA of MHC-α, MHC-β, thyroid receptor α1 (TR-α1) and β (TR-β) were analyzed using rt-PCR and semiquantitative PCR analysis. MHC isoform protein composition was determined using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. MHC-α isoform protein was predominant in all groups. The relative expression of MHC-β (%MHC-β) protein was not different between groups (CWI 34.7 ± 6.9%; Ex 32 ± 5.3%; CON 35.5 ± 10%; P = 0.7). MHC-β mRNA was reduced in Ex (0.7 ± 0.3-fold) compared to CWI (1.3 ± 0.2-fold; P < 0.001) and CON (1.01 ± 0.2-fold; P = 0.03). TRα1 mRNA was lower in CWI (0.4 ± 0.05-fold) than Ex (1.02 ± 0.3-fold) and CON (1.01 ± 0.2-fold) (P < 0.001 for both). CWI exhibited greater %MHC-β mRNA (56.8 ± 4.1%) than Ex (44.4 ± 7.7%; P = 0.001) and CON (48.5 ± 7.8%; P = 0.03). Neither exercise nor post-exercise CWI demonstrated a distinct effect on myocardial MHC protein isoform composition. However, CWI increased the relative expression of MHC-β mRNA compared with Ex and CON. Although this implicates a potential negative long-term impact of post-exercise CWI, future studies should include measures of cardiac function to better understand the effect of such isoform mRNA shifts following regular use of CWI.
