Project description:Subjects underwent endothelial testing and blood sampling at baseline and after 3 months of exercise training. Microarray and flow cytometry-based characterization of cells from an endothelial progeniator colony assay was consistent with T lymphocytes, but not endothelial cells. Experiment Overall Design: blood samples from 12 healthy subjects at baseline (A) and after 3 months (B) of exercise.

Project description:While the salutary effects of exercise training on conduit artery endothelial cells have been reported in animals and humans with cardiovascular risk factors or disease, whether a healthy endothelium is alterable with exercise training is less certain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of exercise training on transcriptional profiles in normal endothelial cells using a genome-wide microarray analysis. Brachial and internal mammary endothelial gene expression was compared between a group of healthy pigs that exercise-trained for 16-20 weeks (n=8) and a group that remained sedentary (n=8). We found that a total of 130 genes were up regulated and 84 genes down regulated in brachial artery endothelial cells with exercise training. In contrast, a total of 113 genes were up regulated and 31 genes down regulated in internal mammary artery endothelial cells (>1.5-fold and false discovery rate<15%). Although there was an overlap of 66 genes (59 up regulated and 7 down regulated with exercise training) between the brachial and internal mammary arteries, the identified endothelial gene networks and biological processes influenced by exercise training were distinctly different between the brachial and internal mammary arteries. These data indicate that a healthy endothelium is indeed responsive to exercise training and support the concept that the influence of physical activity on endothelial gene expression is not homogenously distributed throughout the vasculature.

The arteries were taken from the same animals, and after quality assessment, so there were 29 total arrays (15 unique pigs), 14 with an array for both the brachial artery and the internal mammary artery (IMA), and the remaining 1 having only brachial. One pig had bad RNA quality and is missing from both IMA and brachical. Therefore, there were 15 IMA (7 SED, 8 EX) and 14 brachial arrays (7 SED, 7 EX) that were used in this study.

Project description:Elderly AA volunteers confirmed MCI assigned into a six-month program of aerobic exercise (eleven participants) underwent a 40-minute supervised-training 3-times/week and controls (eight participants) performed stretch training. Participants had maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) test and Genome-wide methylation levels at CpG sites using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip assay at baseline and after a six-month exercise program.

Project description:The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of training on the global transcriptional response of skeletal muscle to an acute bout of resistance exercise. Seven young healthy men and women underwent a 12-week supervised progressive unilateral arm resistance exercise (RE) training program. One week after the last session of training, subjects performed an acute bout of bilateral arm RE in which the trained and the untrained arm exercised at the same relative intensity. A muscle biopsy was obtained 4h post exercise from the biceps brachii of the trained and untrained arm. Trained and untrained muscle samples were analyzed for mRNA levels of over 20,000 annotated genes using Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays.

Project description:The study has been described in the following paper: Gianni Parise, Stuart M. Phillips, Jan J. Kaczor and Mark A. Tarnopolsky (2005). Antioxidant enzyme activity is up-regulated after unilateral resistance exercise training in older adults. Free Radical Biology and Medicine, Volume 39, Issue 2, 15 July 2005, Pages 289-295 We cite the following three paragraphs from this paper: "MATERIALS AND METHODS Subjects Twelve men (71.2 ± 6.5 y) volunteered to participate in a 12 week uni-lateral leg resistance training program (Table 1). All subjects underwent a thorough screening process before being admitted into the study. Subjects were first screened by telephone, and were then subject to a medical evaluation. Consent from their family physician was required, and then all potential subjects underwent a resting electrocardiogram, and a sub-maximal graded exercise test on a bicycle ergometer witih a 12-lead ECG. Exclusion criteria included: evidence of coronary hear disease; congestive heart failure; uncontrolled hypertension; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; diabetes mellitus; renal failure; major orthopaedic disability; and smoking. None of the subjects had ever participated in a structured exercise program. After subjects were advised of the benefits and risks of participation, subjects gave their written informed consent. The study was approved by the McMaster University and Hamilton Health Sciences Research Ethics Board and conferred to the principles of the declaration of Helsinki. Exercise Training Resistance training was performed three times weekly on non-consecutive days (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for 12 weeks, under strict supervision. Prior to and after each training session subjects were required to perform passive stretching. Resistance exercise for each session consisted of 3 sets of 10 repetitions for each of leg press and leg extension. Training progressed from one set of each exercise at 50% of the initial 1 repetition maximum (1RM) to 3 sets at 80% of 1RM over the training period. Training logs were kept to record the volume and intensity of each session. The 1RM was re-evaluated every 2 weeks, and the training load was adjusted accordingly. All exercises were performed on universal strength training equipment (Universal Gym Equipment, Inc., Cedar Rapids, Iowa). Muscle Biopsy A muscle biopsy was taken from the vastus lateralis muscle of both legs before as well as after the training period, 20 cm proximal to the knee joint using a modified Bergström needle (5 mm diameter) with suction modification. The biopsy specimen was dissected of fat and connective tissue and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. All samples were stored at -80 °C for subsequent analysis. All subjects were required to abstain from strenuous physical activity for 48 hours prior to the testing session. The non-trained leg performed an acute bout of exercise at the same relative intensity of the training leg to allow for the determination of the effect of training and the effect of acute resistance exercise." Additional Notes: 1) The samples of 8 out 12 were used in the gene expression study. 2) The 2 factors in this study are: 2.1) Leg - Left or Right 2.2) Training - Baseline: samples taken on each leg before exercise - Resistance Training: one of the legs was subject to resistance training followed by acute exercise - Acute Exercise: the other leg had only the acute exercise 3) The baseline samples will be used for right versus left leg comparison to see variance between legs for human experimentation technical issues. The samples from Resistance or Acute Exercise will be compared to corresponding baseline samples to evaluate the effect of both exercise programs on gene expression.

Project description:Derivation and expansion of human umbilical cord blood-derived endothelial colony forming cells under serum-free conditions - a transcriptome analysis. Endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) were isolated from term umbilical cord blood units. ECFCs were expanded under standard, fetal bovine serum (FBS) containing endothelial medium, or transferred to chemically defined endothelial media without FBS. Microarray expression profiling was applied to compare the transcriptome profiles in FBS-containing versus FBS-free culture.

Project description:Study the effects of 3 weeks training exercise in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and healthy individuals. Skeletal muscle biopsies of 5 COPD patients (aged 63±2 year) and 3 age-matched healthy individuals were studied before and after 3 weeks of a supervised endurance training program. Samples were collected from open muscle biopsies of the vastus lateralis of 5 COPD patients and 3 age-matched healthy individuals before and after 3 weeks of a supervised endurance training program. Patients and controls underwent an endurance exercise program on a cycloergometer 5 days a week for three consecutive weeks. One 1 h session/day was established in all subjects, with effective exercise periods of at least 30 min in each case.
