Project description:This study aimed to examine if early life exercise could normalize the reduced heart mass we have previously observed in the adult hearts from growth restricted rats. We investigated the molecular pathways using microarray analysis to explain how endurance exercise in early life might be regulating the sustained increase in heart mass we have observed in these rats in adulthood. At 5 weeks of age, male WKY rats were allocated to one of the following exercise treatments: remained sedentary with post mortem (PM) at 9 or 24 weeks, early exercise training (from 5-9 weeks of age) with PM at 9 or 24 weeks, or later exercise training (from 20-24 weeks of age) with PM at 24 weeks (n=8 males/group). Exercise training involved treadmill running 5 days/ week for 4 weeks. Running duration progressively increased from 20 up to 60 minutes per day, with the treadmill speed set at 15 m/min for the first week and 20 m/min thereafter. At 9 or 24 weeks of age rats were killed with an intraperitoneal injection of Ilium Xylazil-20 (30 mg/kg) and Ketamine (225 mg/kg). The rats in the 9 week old early exercise and 24 week old later exercise groups were killed 72 hours following the last bout of treadmill running. Total RNA was obtained from the whole-hearts for analysis Total RNA obtained from the hearts of WKY rats. Male offspring remained sedentary or underwent treadmill running from 5-9 weeks (early exercise) or 20-24 weeks of age (later exercise).

Project description:The processes of adaptation to environmental heat and aerobic exercise training improve efficiency in various body systems and bring about acclimatory homeostasis. In order to examine the global genomic responses of the soleus and heart following exposure of rats to these stressors, nylon cDNA Atlas Array was used. Male rats were exposed to one of the following stressors: heat acclimation, aerobic training (treadmill), and combined heat acclimation and aerobic training for short (2, 3 days) and long (1 mo) time period. The study comprised seven experimental groups: Controls-untreated. Heat acclimated groups (2dac, Acc)â exposure to environmental heat at 34C for 2 or 30 days. Exercise groups (3dex, Ex)â graduated training protocol under normothermic conditions for 3 and 30 days at 24C. Exercise training and heat acclimation â (3dexac, ExAc)- exposed to both environmental heat and aerobic exercise as above. The Series data tables appended below: 1) Heart - normalized log2 ratio of geomeans defined as treatment/control 2) Soleus - normalized log2 ratio of geomeans defined as treatment/control 21 samples, 3 pool each, of: 1)Â Control untreated rats 2)Â Long-term heat acclimated rats 3)Â Long-term aerobic-exercised trained rats. 4)Â Rats exposed to long-term heat acclimation and exercise training. 5)Â Short term heat acclimated rats. 6)Â Short term aerobic exercised trained rats 7)Â Rats exposed to short-term heat acclimation and exercise training.
Project description:This proteomics dataset focuses on the study of changes in protein ubiquitination in the following tissues: liver and heart.
The dataset is a subset of an endurance exercise training study that targets young adult (6-month-old) rats. Specifically, male and female Fischer 344 rats (n = 12) were subjected to progressive treadmill endurance exercise training for 1, 2, 4, or 8 weeks, with tissues collected 48 hours after the last exercise bout. Sex-matched sedentary, untrained rats were used as controls.
This study contributes to MoTrPAC's broader mission, which is to identify molecular changes occurring due to exercise. The ultimate goal is to understand how physical activity can improve and sustain health across various ages and fitness levels.
The program is supported by the NIH Common Fund. For additional information, visit the MoTrPAC Data Hub at https://motrpac-data.org/.

Project description:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish exhausted-exercise model by motorized rodent treadmill. Yu-Ping-Feng-San at doses of 2.18 g/kg was administrated by gavage before exercise training for 10 consecutive days. Quantitative proteomics was performed for assessing the related mechanism of Yu-Ping-Feng-San.
Project description:Study the training exercise effects in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and aged-matched healthy individuals. Skeletal muscle biopsies from 9 stable COPD patients with normal fat free mass index (FFMI, 21Kg/m2) (COPDN), 6 COPD patients with low FFMI (16Kg/m2) (COPL), and 12 healthy sedentary subjects (FFMI 21Kg/m2) before and after 8 weeks of a supervised endurance exercise program were analyzed. Samples were collected from open biopsies from the musculus vastus lateralis of COPD patients and healthy individuals before and after 8 weeks of exercise training. Constant-work rate exercise at 70% of pre-training Watts peak (Wpeak) (CardiO2 cycle Medical Graphics Corporation, USA) was carried out before and after 8 weeks of supervised interval training with a cycloergometer until pre-training endurance time exhaustion. Measurements before and after training were obtained at isowork-rate and iso-time.
