Popis: This retrospective analysis evaluated the impact of exercise, sex, and diet on ACE2 and TMPRSS2 mRNA levels in preclinical swine heart failure models. Unlike normal exercise intensities, exercise training of an intensity tolerable to a patient with heart failure had no influence on ACE2 or TMPRSS2 mRNA. In a tissue-specific manner, ACE2 mRNA levels were altered due to sex and Western diet, whereas TMPRSS2 mRNA levels were sensitive to sex, Western diet, and pig species.
