Popis: | Using female 4-week-old Sprague–Dawley rats, we investigated the effects of 14 weeks of progressive strength isometric training on endothelium dysfunction after estrogen deficiency. We also proposed possible mechanism(s) by which such training acted on endothelium-dependent vasodilation in thoracic aortic rings. Rats were randomly divided into 4 groups of 8 rats: a sham operated group, an ovariectomized sedentary group receiving 17β-estradiol vehicle s.c. daily, an ovariectomized sedentary group receiving a daily injection of 20 µg·kg–1 17β-estradiol s.c., and an ovariectomized exercised group receiving daily s.c. vehicle. Vascular reactivity of aortic rings have been evaluated by a cumulative dose of acetylcholine (ACh), in the presence or absence of l-NAME (N-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester), indomethacin, thapsigargin, iberiotoxin, apamin, and tetraethylammonium. Ovariectomy markedly decreased the relaxation caused by ACh, whereas 17β-estradiol treatment induced a significant increase in the relaxation elicited by ACh. Isometric exercise enhanced relaxation due to ACh. This enhancement was attenuated in the presence of l-NAME, indomethacin, thapsigargin, iberiotoxin, and apamin. Our data indicated, for the first time, that the endothelium-dependent relaxant response to ACh was markedly improved in trained ovariectomized rats. This increased vasodilation is mediated by nitric oxide, cyclooxygenase, sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase pathways, and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor. Finally, this study suggested that resistance training may provide benefits in addressing vascular dysfunction consequent to a decline in estrogen levels after menopause. However, any benefits for age-related vascular dysfunction remain to be demonstrated. |
