- Exercise training can attenuate the inflammatory milieu in women with systemic lupus erythematosus(2014) PERANDINI, Luiz A.; SALES-DE-OLIVEIRA, Diego; MELLO, Suzana B. V.; CAMARA, Niels O.; BENATTI, Fabiana B.; LIMA, Fernanda R.; BORBA, Eduardo; BONFA, Eloisa; SA-PINTO, Ana L.; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, BrunoSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation. This study sought to assess the effects of an exercise training program on cytokines and soluble TNF receptors (sTNFRs) in response to acute exercise in SLE women. Eight SLE women and 10 sex-, age-, and body mass index-comparable healthy controls (HC) participated in this study. Before and after a 12-wk aerobic exercise training program, cytokines and sTNFRs were assessed at rest and in response to single bouts of acute moderate/intense exercise. HC performed the acute exercise bouts only at baseline. After the exercise training program, there was a decrease in resting TNFR2 levels (P = 0.025) and a tend to reduction interleukin (IL)-10 levels (P = 0.093) in SLE. The resting levels of IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-alpha after the exercise training in SLE reached HC levels (P > 0.05). In response to a single bout of acute moderate exercise, the area under the curve (AUC) of IL-10 was significantly reduced after the exercise training program in SLE (P = 0.043), and the AUC of IL-10, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and sTNFR1 of SLE approached control values (P = 0.05). In response to a single bout of acute intense exercise, the AUC of IL-10 was significantly reduced in SLE (P = 0.015). Furthermore, the AUC of sTNFR2 tended to decrease after exercise training program in SLE (P = 0.084), but it did not reach control values (P = 0.001). An aerobic exercise training program attenuated the inflammatory milieu in SLE women, revealing a novel homeostatic immunomodulatory role of exercise in an autoimmunity condition.
- The effects of exercise on lipid profile in systemic lupus erythematosus and healthy individuals: a randomized trial(2015) BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; MIOSSI, Renata; PASSARELI, Marisa; NAKANDAKARE, Edna R.; PERANDINI, Luiz; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; BORBA, Eduardo; BONFA, Eloisa; GUALANO, Bruno; PINTO, Ana Lucia de SaThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of an exercise training program on lipid profile and composition of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfractions in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and healthy controls. A 12-week, randomized trial was conducted. Thirty-three physically inactive SLE patients were randomly assigned into two groups: trained (SLE-TR, n = 17) and non-trained (SLE-NT, n = 16). A gender-, BMI-, and age-matched healthy control groups (C-TR, n = 11) also underwent the exercise program. Subjects were assessed at baseline (Pre) and 12 weeks after the 3-month exercise training program (Post) for lipid profile (HDL, low-density lipoprotein, very low-density lipoprotein, and total cholesterol and triglycerides levels) and composition of the HDL subfractions HDL2 and HDL3. SLE patients showed significantly lower contents of Apo A-I, phospholipid, and triglyceride in the HDL3 subfraction (p < 0.05, between-group comparisons) than healthy controls at baseline. The exercise training program did not affect any of the parameters in the SLE-TR group (p > 0.05, within-group comparisons), although there was a trend toward decreased circulating Apo B levels (p = 0.06, ES = -0.3, within-group comparison). In contrast, the same exercise training program was effective in increasing contents of cholesterol, triglyceride, and phospholipid in the HDL2 subfraction in the C-TR group (p = 0.036, ES = 2.06; p = 0.038, ES = 1.77; and p = 0.0021, ES = 2.37, respectively, within-group comparisons), whereas no changes were observed in the composition of the HDL3 subfraction. This study showed that SLE patients have a less effective response to a 12-week exercise training program than healthy individuals, with regard to lipid profile and chemical composition of HDL subfractions. These results reinforce the need for further studies to define the optimal training protocol to improve lipid profile and particularly the HDL composition in these patients (registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01515163).
- Using Exercise Training to Counterbalance Chronotropic Incompetence and Delayed Heart Rate Recovery in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Randomized Trial(2012) MIOSSI, Renata; BENATTI, Fabiana B.; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda R.; BORBA, Eduardo F.; PRADO, Danilo M. L.; PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; GUALANO, Bruno; BONFA, Eloisa; ROSCHEL, HamiltonObjective. To evaluate the efficacy of a 3-month exercise training program in counteracting the chronotropic incompetence and delayed heart rate recovery in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods. A 12-week randomized trial was conducted. Twenty-four inactive SLE patients were randomly assigned into 2 groups: trained (T; n = 15, 3-month exercise program) and nontrained (NT; n = 13). A sex-, body mass index-, and age-matched healthy control (C) group (n = 8) also underwent the exercise program. Subjects were assessed at baseline and at 12 weeks after training. Main measurements included the chronotropic reserve (CR) and the heart rate (HR) recovery (Delta HRR) as defined by the difference between HR at peak exercise and at both the first (Delta HRR1) and second (Delta HRR2) minutes after the exercise test. Results. Neither the NT SLE patients nor the C group presented any change in the CR or in Delta HRR1 and Delta HRR2 (P > 0.05). The exercise training program was effective in promoting significant increases in CR (P = 0.007, effect size [ES] 1.15) and in Delta HRR1 and Delta HRR2 (P = 0.009, ES 1.12 and P = 0.002, ES 1.11, respectively) in the SLE T group when compared with the NT group. Moreover, the HR response in SLE patients after training achieved parameters comparable to the C group, as evidenced by the analysis of variance and by the Z score analysis (P > 0.05, T versus C). Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index scores remained stable throughout the study. Conclusion. A 3-month exercise training program was safe and capable of reducing the chronotropic incompetence and the delayed Delta HRR observed in physically inactive SLE patients.
article 14 Citação(ões) na Scopus Effects of acute aerobic exercise on leukocyte inflammatory gene expression in systemic lupus erythematosus(2016) PERANDINI, L. A.; SALES-DE-OLIVEIRA, D.; ALMEIDA, D. C.; AZEVEDO, H.; MOREIRA-FILHO, C. A.; CENEDEZE, M. A.; BENATTI, F. B.; LIMA, F. R.; BORBA, E.; BONFA, E.; SA-PINTO, A. L.; ROSCHEL, H.; CAMARA, N. O.; GUALANO, B.Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with a persistent systemic inflammation. Exercise-induced inflammatory response in SLE remains to be fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of acute exercise on leukocyte gene expression in active (SLEACTIVE) and inactive SLE (SLEINACTIVE) patients and healthy controls (HC). Methods: All subjects (n = 4 per group) performed a 30-min single bout of acute aerobic exercise (similar to 70% of VO2 peak) on a treadmill, and blood samples were collected for RNA extraction from circulating leukocyte at baseline, at the end of exercise, and after three hours of recovery. The expression of a panel of immune-related genes was evaluated by a quantitative PCR array assay. Moreover, network-based analyses were performed to interpret transcriptional changes occurring after the exercise challenge. Results: In all groups, a single bout of acute exercise led to the down-regulation of the gene expression of innate and adaptive immunity at the end of exercise (e.g., TLR3, IFNG, GATA3, FOXP3, STAT4) with a subsequent up-regulation occurring upon recovery. Exercise regulated the expression of inflammatory genes in the blood leukocytes of the SLE patients and HC, although the SLE groups exhibited fewer modulated genes and less densely connected networks (number of nodes: 29, 40 and 58; number of edges: 29, 60 and 195; network density: 0.07, 0.08 and 0.12, for SLEACTIVE, SLEINACTIVE and HC, respectively). Conclusion: The leukocytes from the SLE patients, irrespective of disease activity, showed a down-regulated inflammatory gene expression immediately after acute aerobic exercise, followed by an up-regulation at recovery. Furthermore, less organized gene networks were observed in the SLE patients, suggesting that they may be deficient in triggering a normal exercise-induced immune transcriptional response.- Exercise as a therapeutic tool to counteract inflammation and clinical symptoms in autoimmune rheumatic diseases(2012) PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; SA-PINTO, Ana Lucia de; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; BONFA, Eloisa; GUALANO, BrunoChronic inflammation is a common feature shared by several autoimmune rheumatic diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, systemic sclerosis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Therefore, blocking or reducing inflammation is one of the major treatment strategies in these diseases. In this context, exercise training has emerged as a potential therapeutic tool in counteracting systemic inflammation, thereby leading to better clinical outcomes. The aims of this review are i) to provide a summary of the clinical effects of exercise training in selected autoimmune rheumatic diseases; and ii) to discuss the potential anti-inflammatory role of exercise training in autoimmune rheumatic diseases, stressing the gaps in literature and the clinical and scientific perspectives in the field.
article 26 Citação(ões) na Scopus Inflammatory cytokine kinetics to single bouts of acute moderate and intense aerobic exercise in women with active and inactive systemic lupus erythematosus(2015) PERANDINI, L. A.; SALES-DE-OLIVEIRA, D.; V, S. B. Mello; CAMARA, N. O.; BENATTI, F. B.; LIMA, F. R.; BORBA, E.; BONFA, E.; ROSCHEL, H.; SA-PINTO, A. L.; GUALANO, B.Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the cytokines INF-gamma, IL-10, IL-6, TNF-alpha and soluble TNF receptors (sTNFR1 and sTNFR2) in response to single bouts of acute moderate and intense exercise in systemic lupus erythematosus women with active (SLEACTIVE) and inactive (SLEINACTIVE) disease. Methods: Twelve SLEINACTIVE women (age: 35.3 +/- 5.7 yrs: 25.6 +/- 3.4 kg/m(2)), eleven SLEINACTIVE women (age: 30.4 +/- 4.5 yrs; 26.1 +/- 4.8 kg/m(2)), and 10 age- and BMI-matched healthy control women (HC) performed 30 minutes of acute moderate (similar to 50% of VO(2)peak) and intense (similar to 70% of VO(2)peak) exercise bout. Cytokines and,soluble TNF receptors were assessed at baseline, immediately after; every 30 minutes up to three howls, and 24 hours after both acute exercise bouts. Results: In response to acute moderate exercise, cytokines and soluble TNF receptors levels remained unchanged in all groups (P>0.05), except for a reduction in IL-6 levels in the SLEACTIVE group at the 60th and 180th minutes of recovery (P<0.05), and a reduction in sTNFR1 levels in the He group at the 90th, 120th, 150th, 180th minutes of recovery (P<0.05). The SLEINACTIVE group showed higher levels of TNF-alpha, sTNFR1, and sTNFR2 at all time points when compared with the HC group (P<0.05). Also, the SLEACTIVE group showed higher levels of IL-6 at the 60th minute of recovery (P<0.05) when compared with the HC group. After intense exercise, sTNFR1 levels were reduced at the 150th (P=0.041) and 180th (P=0.034) minutes of recovery in the group. whereas the other cytokines and sTNFR2 levels remained unchanged (P>0.05). hi the He group, IL-10, TNF-alpha, sTNFR1, and sTNFR2 levels did not change, whilst INF-gamma levels decreased (P=0.05) and IL-6 levels increased immediately after the exercise (P=0.028), returning to baseline levels 24 hours later (P > 0.05). When compared with the HC group, the SLEINACTIVE, group showed higher levels of TNF-alpha and sTNFR2 in all time points, and higher levels of sTNFR1 at the end of exercise and at the 30th minute of recovery (P<0.05). The SLEACTIVE group also showed higher levels of TNF-alpha at all time points when compared with the HC group (P<0.05), (except after 90 min, 120 min and 24 hours of recovery) (P>0.05). Importantly, the levels of all cytokine and soluble TNF receptors returned to baseline 24 hours after the end of acute exercise, irrespective of its intensity in all three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that both the single bouts of acute moderate and intense exercise induced mild and transient changes in cytokine levels in both SLEINACTIVE and SLEACTIVE women, providing novel evidence that acute aerobic execise does not trigger inflammation in patients with this disease.
