Aortic stiffness and aerobic exercise: Mechanistic insight from microarray analyses

Article Abstract:

The alteration of gene expression in the aorta by aerobic exercise training was measured using the microarray technique to determine the molecular mechanisms by which chronic exercise lowers arterial stiffness. Exercise training was found to induce the altered expression in several genes including prostaglandin, C-type natriuteric, and nitric oxide in the aorta and these molecular changes might partly contribute to the beneficial effect of exercise training on aortic stiffness.

Effects of short-term endurance training on aortic distensibility in young males

Article Abstract:

The effects of short term exercise training and detraining was studied on aortic distensibility in 10 sedentary young males. The result showed that short-term exercise training can improve aortic distensibility, but the effect cannot be maintained without physical exercise.

Postexercise heart rate recovery accelerates in strength-trained athletes

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to investigate whether postexercise heart rate (HR) recovery accelerates in strength-trained athletes. The findings suggest that the HR recovery immediately after exercise is accelerated in both strength- and endurance-trained athletes.
