摘要:This study evaluated modulators of apoptosis in the myocardium of rats subjected to exercise training. Rats were assigned to non-trained and exercise-trained groups, respectively. The animals ran for 1 h per day, 6 times per week and, for a total of 13 weeks. The left ventricle was processed for analysis of gene and protein anti- (Bcl-2, c IAP1, c-IAP2, Survivin, ILK, Akt and pAkt) and pro- (Bad) apoptotic expression by real-time PCR (except for Akt and pAkt) and Western blot, respectively. The Bad mRNA (p<0.05), but not the protein expression (p = 0.19), was significantly lower after training. The exercise training significantly increased the gene and protein expression for all anti-apoptotic factors. However, a significant change in the c IAP2 was seen only for gene expression (p<0.05). The present findings indicate that exercise can create a favorable milieu for the survival of cardiomyocytes when apoptosis is increased.
