conferenceObject Treatment with empagliflozin improves cardiac function in infarcted animals associated with increased baroreflex sensitivity(2023) SILVA, B. Da; NASCIMENTO-CARVALHO, B.; SOUZA, L. I. De; SILVA, M. B. Da; MARQUES, J. R.; DOURADO, P. M. M.; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, F.; IRIGOYEN, M. C. C.- Concurrent exercise training induces additional benefits to hydrochlorothiazide: Evidence for an improvement of autonomic control and oxidative stress in a model of hypertension and postmenopause(2023) FERREIRA, Maycon Junior; SILVA, Michel Pablo dos Santos Ferreira; DIAS, Danielle da Silva; BERNARDES, Nathalia; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia; ANGELIS, Katia DeObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate whether exercise training could contribute to a better modulation of the neurohumoral mechanisms linked to the pathophysiology of arterial hypertension (AH) in postmenopausal hypertensive rats treated with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ). MethodsFemale spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) (150-200g, 90 days old) were distributed into 5 hypertensive groups (n = 7-8 rats/group): control (C), ovariectomized (O), ovariectomized treated with HCTZ (OH), ovariectomized submitted to exercise training (OT) and ovariectomized submitted to exercise training and treated with HCTZ (OTH). Ovarian hormone deprivation was performed through bilateral ovariectomy. HCTZ (30mg/kg/day) and concurrent exercise training (3d/wk) were conducted lasted 8 weeks. Arterial pressure (AP) was directly recorded. Cardiac effort was evaluated using the rate-pressure product (RPP = systolic AP x heart rate). Vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist, losartan and hexamethonium were sequentially injected to evaluate the vasopressor systems. Inflammation and oxidative stress were evaluated in cardiac tissue. ResultsIn addition to the reduction in AP, trained groups improved RPP, AP variability, bradycardic (OT: -1.3 & PLUSMN; 0.4 and OTH: -1.6 & PLUSMN; 0.3 vs. O: -0.6 & PLUSMN; 0.3 bpm/mmHg) and tachycardic responses of baroreflex sensitivity (OT: -2.4 & PLUSMN; 0.8 and OTH: -2.4 & PLUSMN; 0.8 vs. O: -1.3 & PLUSMN; 0.5 bpm/mmHg), NADPH oxidase and IL-10/TNF-& alpha; ratio. Hexamethonium injection revealed reduced sympathetic contribution on basal AP in OTH group (OTH: -49.8 & PLUSMN; 12.4 vs. O: -74.6 & PLUSMN; 18.1 mmHg). Furthermore, cardiac sympathovagal balance (LF/HF ratio), IL-10 and antioxidant enzymes were enhanced in OTH group. AP variability and baroreflex sensitivity were correlated with systolic AP, RPP, LF/HF ratio and inflammatory and oxidative stress parameters. ConclusionThe combination of HCTZ plus concurrent exercise training induced additional positive adaptations in cardiovascular autonomic control, inflammation and redox balance in ovariectomized SHR. Therefore, combining exercise and medication may represent a promising strategy for managing classic and remaining cardiovascular risks in AH.
- Enteral administration of the protease inhibitor gabexate mesilate preserves vascular function in experimental trauma/hemorrhagic shock(2023) MOREIRA, Nathalia J. D.; SANTOS, Fernando dos; LI, Joyce B.; ALETTI, Federico; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia C.; KISTLER, Erik B.Preserving vascular function is crucial for preventing multiorgan failure and death in ischemic and low-pressure states such as trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS). It has recently been reported that inhibiting circulating proteases released from the bowel to the circulation during T/HS may preserve vascular function and improve outcomes following T/HS. This study aimed to evaluate the role of the serine protease inhibitor gabexate mesilate (GM) in preserving vascular function during T/HS when given enterally. We studied the vascular reactivity of mesenteric arteries from male Wistar rats treated with enteral GM (10 mg/kg) (GM-treated, n = 6) or control (Shock-control, n = 6) following (T/HS) using pressure myography. Concentration-response curves of endothelial-dependent and endothelial-independent agonists (e.g., acetylcholine, sodium nitroprusside) ranging from 10(-10) to 10(-5) M were performed. In a second set of experiments, ex-vivo arteries from healthy rats were perfused with plasma from shocked animals from both groups and vascular performance was similarly measured. Arteries from the GM-treated group demonstrated a preserved concentration-response curve to the & alpha;(1) adrenergic agonist phenylephrine compared to arteries from Shock-control animals (- logEC(50): - 5.73 & PLUSMN; 0.25 vs. - 6.48 & PLUSMN; 0.2, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.04). When perfused with plasma from GM-treated rats, healthy arteries exhibited an even greater constriction and sensitivity to phenylephrine (- logEC(50): - 6.62 & PLUSMN; 0.21 vs. - 7.13 & PLUSMN; 0.21, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.02). Enteral GM also preserved the endothelium-dependent vascular response to agonists following T/HS and limited syndecan-1 shedding as a marker of glycocalyx compromise (41.84 & PLUSMN; 9 vs. 17.63 & PLUSMN; 3.97 ng/mL, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.02). Syndecan-1 cleavage was correlated with plasma trypsin-like activity (r(2) = 0.9611). Enteral gabexate mesilate was able to maintain vascular function in experimental T/HS, which was reflected by improved hemodynamics (mean arterial pressure 50.39 & PLUSMN; 7.91 vs. 64.95 & PLUSMN; 3.43 mmHg, Shock-control vs. GM treated, p = 0.0001). Enteral serine protease inhibition may be a potential therapeutic intervention in the treatment of T/HS.
- Combined Exercise Training Promotes More Benefits on Cardiovascular Autonomic Modulation in Ovariectomized Rats Than Isolated Aerobic or Resistance Training(2023) COSTA-SANTOS, Nicolas Da; COSTA, Gabrielly Minguta Santos; DOS-SANTOS, Adriano; NASCIMENTO-CARVALHO, Bruno; RIBEIRO, Thayna Fabiana; FREITAS, Sarah Cristina Ferreira; CAPERUTO, Erico; IRIGOYEN, Maria -Claudia; ANGELIS, Katia De; SCAPINI, Katia Bilhar; SANCHES, Iris CalladoIntroduction: Cardiovascular risk increase after ovarian deprivation has been extensively demonstrated by our research group through cardiovascular autonomic analysis. Interventions involving different types of exercises, such as resistance exercises or combined exercises (aerobic and resistance) have been widely recommended to prevent or minimize neuromuscular decline in postmenopausal women, which is aggravated by a sedentary lifestyle. Experimentally, the cardiovascular effects of resistance or combined training, as well as comparison between aerobic, resistance, and combined training, in ovariectomized animals are scarce. Purpose: In this study, we hypothesized that the combination of aerobic and resistance training may be more effective in preventing muscle mass loss, as well as improving cardiovascular autonomic modulation and baroreflex sensitivity, than aerobic or resistance training individually in ovariectomized rats. Animals and Methods: Female rats were divided into 5 groups: sedentary (C); ovariectomized (Ovx); trained ovariectomized submitted to aerobic training (OvxAT); resistance training (OvxRT); combined training (OvxCT). Exercise training lasted 8 weeks, with the combined group alternating between aerobic training and resistance training every other day. At the end of the study, glycemia and insulin tolerance were evaluated. Arterial pressure (AP) was directly recorded. Baroreflex sensitivity was assessed by heart rate response to changes in arterial pressure. Cardiovascular autonomic modulation was evaluated by spectral analysis. Results: Combined training was the only training regime that increased baroreflex sensitivity for tachycardic response and reduced all systolic blood pressure variability parameters. Furthermore, all animals submitted to exercise training on a treadmill (OvxAT and OvxCT) presented lower systolic, diastolic, and mean pressure, as well as improvements in the autonomic modulation for the heart. Conclusion: Combined training showed to be more effective than isolated aerobic and resistance training, mixing the isolated benefits of each modality. It was the only modality able to increase baroreflex sensitivity to tachycardic responses, reduce arterial pressure and all parameters of vascular sympathetic modulation.
- Neurovascular and hemodynamic responses to mental stress and exercise in severe COVID-19 survivors(2023) FARIA, Diego; MOLL-BERNARDES, Renata; TESTA, Laura; MONIZ, Camila M. V.; RODRIGUES, Erika C.; MOTA, Jose M.; SOUZA, Francis R.; ALVES, Maria Janieire N. N.; ONO, Bruna E.; IZAIAS, Joao E.; SALES, Artur O.; RODRIGUES, Thais S.; SALEMI, Vera M. C.; JORDAO, Camila P.; ANGELIS, Katia De; CRAIGHEAD, Daniel H.; ROSSMAN, Matthew J.; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda M.; IRIGOYEN, Maria C. C.; SEALS, Douglas R.; NEGRAO, Carlos E.; SALES, Allan R. K.Previous studies show that COVID-19 survivors have elevated muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), endothelial dysfunction, and aortic stiffening. However, the neurovascular responses to mental stress and exercise are still unexplored. We hypothesized that COVID-19 survivors, compared with age-and body mass index (BMI)-matched control subjects, exhibit abnormal neurovascular responses to mental stress and physical exercise. Fifteen severe COVID-19 survivors (aged: 49 +/- 2 yr, BMI: 30 +/- 1 kg/m(2)) and 15 well-matched control subjects (aged: 46 +/- 3 yr, BMI: 29 +/- 1 kg/m(2)) were studied. MSNA (microneurography), forearm blood flow (FBF), and forearm vascular conductance (FVC, venous occlusion plethysmography), mean arterial pressure (MAP, Finometer), and heart rate (HR, ECG) were measured during a 3-min mental stress (Stroop Color-Word Test) and during a 3-min isometric handgrip exercise (30% of maximal voluntary contraction). During mental stress, MSNA (frequency and incidence) responses were higher in COVID-19 survivors than in controls (P < 0.001), and FBF and FVC responses were attenuated (P < 0.05). MAP was similar between the groups (P > 0.05). In contrast, the MSNA (frequency and incidence) and FBF and FVC responses to handgrip exercise were similar between the groups (P > 0.05). MAP was lower in COVID-19 survivors (P < 0.05). COVID-19 survivors exhibit an exaggerated MSNA and blunted vasodilatory response to mental challenge compared with healthy adults. However, the neurovascular response to handgrip exercise is preserved in COVID-19 survivors. Overall, the abnormal neurovascular control in response to mental stress suggests that COVID-19 survivors may have an increased risk to cardiovascular events during mental challenge.
- Sympathetic Neural Overdrive, Aortic Stiffening, Endothelial Dysfunction, and Impaired Exercise Capacity in Severe COVID-19 Survivors: A Mid-Term Study of Cardiovascular Sequelae(2023) FARIA, Diego; MOLL-BERNARDES, Renata J.; TESTA, Laura; MONIZ, Camila M. V.; RODRIGUES, Erika C.; RODRIGUES, Amanda G.; ARAUJO, Amanda; ALVES, Maria J. N. N.; ONO, Bruna E.; IZAIAS, Joao E.; SALEMI, Vera M. C.; JORDAO, Camila P.; AMARO-VICENTE, Graziela; RONDON, Maria U. P. B.; LUDWIG, Katelyn R.; CRAIGHEAD, Daniel H.; ROSSMAN, Matthew J.; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda M.; ANGELIS, Katia De; IRIGOYEN, Maria C. C.; SEALS, Douglas R.; NEGRAO, Carlos E.; SALES, Allan R. K.Background:COVID-19 has become a dramatic health problem during this century. In addition to high mortality rate, COVID-19 survivors are at increased risk for cardiovascular diseases 1-year after infection. Explanations for these manifestations are still unclear but can involve a constellation of biological alterations. We hypothesized that COVID-19 survivors compared with controls exhibit sympathetic overdrive, vascular dysfunction, cardiac morpho-functional changes, impaired exercise capacity, and increased oxidative stress. Methods:Nineteen severe COVID-19 survivors and 19 well-matched controls completed the study. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (microneurography), brachial artery flow-mediated dilation and blood flow (Doppler-Ultrasound), carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (Complior), cardiac morpho-functional parameters (echocardiography), peak oxygen uptake (cardiopulmonary exercise testing), and oxidative stress were measured similar to 3 months after hospital discharge. Complementary experiments were conducted on human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured with plasma samples from subjects. Results:Muscle sympathetic nerve activity and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity were greater and brachial artery flow-mediated dilation, brachial artery blood flow, E/e ' ratio, and peak oxygen uptake were lower in COVID-19 survivors than in controls. COVID-19 survivors had lower circulating antioxidant markers compared with controls, but there were no differences in plasma-treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells nitric oxide production and reactive oxygen species bioactivity. Diminished peak oxygen uptake was associated with sympathetic overdrive, vascular dysfunction, and reduced diastolic function in COVID-19 survivors. Conclusions:Our study revealed that COVID-19 survivors have sympathetic overactivation, vascular dysfunction, cardiac morpho-functional changes, and reduced exercise capacity. These findings indicate the need for further investigation to determine whether these manifestations are persistent longer-term and their impact on the cardiovascular health of COVID-19 survivors.
conferenceObject CARDIORENAL DYSFUNCTION IN MICE SUBMITTED TO AORTIC STENOSIS AND TREATED WITH SODIUM OXALATE(2023) SILVA, Amanda; MARQUES, Juliana; NASCIMENTO, Bruno; SOUZA, Leandro; SILVA, Maikon; BENETTI, Acaris; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia- Food readjustment plus exercise training improves cardiovascular autonomic control and baroreflex sensitivity in high-fat diet-fed ovariectomized mice(2023) NASCIMENTO-CARVALHO, Bruno; DOS-SANTOS, Adriano; COSTA-SANTOS, Nicolas Da; CARVALHO, Sabrina L.; MORAES, Oscar A. de; SANTOS, Camila P.; ANGELIS, Katia De; CAPERUTO, Erico C.; IRIGOYEN, Maria-Claudia; SCAPINI, Katia B.; SANCHES, Iris C.Despite consensus on the benefits of food readjustment and/or moderate-intensity continuous exercise in the treatment of cardiometabolic risk factors, there is little evidence of the association between these two cardiovascular risk management strategies after menopause. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of food readjustment and/or exercise training on metabolic, hemodynamic, autonomic, and inflammatory parameters in a model of loss of ovarian function with diet-induced obesity. Forty C57BL/6J ovariectomized mice were divided into the following groups: high-fat diet-fed - 60% lipids throughout the protocol (HF), food readjustment - 60% lipids for 5 weeks, readjusted to 10% for the next 5 weeks (FR), high-fat diet-fed undergoing moderate-intensity exercise training (HFT), and food readjustment associated with moderate-intensity exercise training (FRT). Blood glucose evaluations and oral glucose tolerance tests were performed. Blood pressure was assessed by direct intra-arterial measurement. Baroreflex sensitivity was tested using heart rate phenylephrine and sodium nitroprusside induced blood pressure changes. Cardiovascular autonomic modulation was evaluated in time and frequency domains. Inflammatory profile was evaluated by IL-6, IL-10 cytokines, and TNF-alpha measurements. Only the exercise training associated with food readjustment strategy induced improved functional capacity, body composition, metabolic parameters, inflammatory profile, and resting bradycardia, while positively changing cardiovascular autonomic modulation and increasing baroreflex sensitivity. Our findings demonstrate that the association of these strategies seems to be effective in the management of cardiometabolic risk in a model of loss of ovarian function with diet-induced obesity.
- Effect of aerobic and resistance exercise training on endothelial function in individuals with overweight and obesity: a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials(2023) CORTES, Maiquel Bueno; SILVA, Raphael Silveira Nunes da; OLIVEIRA, Patricia Caetano de; SILVA, Diego Silveira da; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia Costa; WACLAWOVSKY, Gustavo; SCHAUN, Maximiliano IsoppoThe objective of this systematic review was to examine the effects of exercise training on endothelial function in individuals with overweight and obesity. Our review study included only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving adults (>= 18 years of age) with body mass index (BMI)>= 25.0 kg/m(2). Our search was conducted in the electronic bases MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane, LILACS and EMBASE and in the gray literature. We performed random-effects analyses for effect estimates and used 95% prediction intervals (95% PI) for estimating the uncertainty of the study results. There were selected 10 RCTs involving 14 groups (n=400). The quality assessment of studies using Cochrane risk-of-bias 2 (RoB 2) tool identified some concerns. Exercise training resulted in improved flow-mediated dilation (FMD) in individuals with overweight and obesity (p<0.001) compared to the no-exercise control group. This effect of training modalities on FMD was seen for aerobic training (p<0.001) but not for resistance training (p=0.051). There was no difference in FMD in response to exercise training by BMI classification (overweight, obesity, overweight+obesity), p=0.793. The present results are consistent with the notion that aerobic exercise training elicits favorable adaptations in endothelial function in individuals with overweight and obesity. Our findings should be interpreted with caution because of the small number of studies included in this review.
- Effects of Exercise Intensity on Cardiometabolic Parameters of Ovariectomized Obese Mice(2023) DOS-SANTOS, Adriano; CARVALHO, Bruno do Nascimento; COSTA-SANTOS, Nicolas Da; MELLO-SILVA, Fernanda Queiroz de; PEREIRA, Abel de Assis; JESUS, Ney Roberto de; ANGELIS, Katia De; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia; BERNARDES, Nathalia; CAPERUTO, Erico Chagas; SCAPINI, Katia Bilhar; SANCHES, Iris CalladoThe aim of this study was to compare the effects of continuous-moderate vs. high-intensity interval aerobic training on cardiovascular and metabolic parameters in ovariectomized high-fat-fed mice. C57BL/6 female ovariectomized were divided into four groups (n=8): low-fat-fed sedentary (SLF); high-fat-fed sedentary (SHF); high-fat-fed moderate-intensity continuous trained (MICT-HF); and high-fat-fed high-intensity interval aerobic trained (HIIT-HF). The high-fat diet lasted 10 weeks. Ovariectomy was performed in the fourth week. The exercise training was carried out in the last four weeks of protocol. Fasting glycemia, oral glucose tolerance, arterial pressure, baroreflex sensitivity, and cardiovascular autonomic modulation were evaluated. Moderate-intensity continuous training prevented the increase in arterial pressure and promoted a reduction in HR at rest, associated with an improvement in the sympathovagal balance in MICT-HF vs. SHF. The high-intensity interval training reduced blood glucose and glucose intolerance in HIIT-HF vs. SHF and MICT-HF. In addition, it improved sympathovagal balance in HIIT-HF vs. SHF. Moderate-intensity continuous training was more effective in promoting cardiovascular benefits, while high-intensity interval training was more effective in promoting metabolic benefits.
