Transcription profiling of rat heart tissue samples from animals undergoing different exercise regimens


ABSTRACT: The interaction of genetics and environment play a major role in health and disease. Therefore, modeling experiments to investigate gene-environment interaction in a laboratory setting would provide the opportunity to gain mechanistic insight under controlled conditions. In laboratory research it is unclear if the gene-environment interaction of a sedentary lifestyle predisposes laboratory animals to hypokinetic diseases. Experiment Overall Design: We are seeking to compare gene expression and physiological markers of health and wellness in animals with: i. a sedentary lifestyle in a standard cage (CSS1-4); ii. access to twice-weekly physical activity in a large box outside a standard cage (CSA1-4); and iii. access to regular exercise in cages with running wheels (CSR1-4).

The interaction between genes and environment can influence cardiovascular disease (CVD). This 16 month study investigated if genes associated with cardiovascular (CV) regulation were expressed differently in animals having: 1) no access to physical activity or exercise (SED), 2) access to hour-long, twice weekly activity (PA), and 3) access every-other-day to a running wheel (EX). Out of 31,000 genes, a CV subset comprising 44 genes was investigated. Ten genes from this subset were expressed di  ...[more]
