Project description:Lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly recognized as a distinct clinical phenotype with limited evidence for effective non-pharmacological interventions and unclear mechanistic pathways. Aerobic exercise is recommended for NAFLD management, yet its effects and underlying gut microbiota–mediated mechanisms in lean NAFLD remain insufficiently characterized. This study is based on a randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04882644) in which 100 adults with lean NAFLD were randomly assigned to a 3-month aerobic exercise intervention or usual care. 63 paired fecal samples were collected at baseline and after intervention. Gut microbiota profiles were generated using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The dataset includes processed taxonomic abundance tables derived from fecal samples collected before and after the intervention. These data were used to characterize exercise-induced alterations in gut microbial diversity, composition, and functional potential, and to explore interindividual heterogeneity in microbiota responses to aerobic exercise in lean NAFLD. The microbiome data deposited in this series support integrative analyses with clinical phenotypes and circulating metabolomic profiles, aiming to elucidate gut microbiota–associated mechanisms underlying the metabolic benefits of aerobic exercise in lean NAFLD.

Project description:Lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly recognized as a distinct clinical phenotype with limited evidence for effective non-pharmacological interventions and unclear mechanistic pathways. Aerobic exercise is recommended for NAFLD management; however, its effects and the gut microbiota–associated mechanisms in lean NAFLD remain incompletely understood. This dataset was generated from a randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04882644). Participants assigned to the aerobic exercise intervention group provided fecal samples at baseline and after the 3-month intervention. A total of 33 paired fecal samples were included in this dataset. Gut microbiota profiles were generated using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. The dataset includes processed and de-identified species-level relative abundance tables derived from fecal samples collected before and after the intervention. These data were used to characterize exercise-induced alterations in gut microbial composition and interindividual variability in microbiota responses to aerobic exercise in lean NAFLD. The data support integrative analyses with clinical phenotypes and circulating metabolomic profiles to explore gut microbiota–associated mechanisms underlying the metabolic benefits of aerobic exercise.

Project description:Maximal aerobic exercise capacity (V̇O2max) is one of the strongest predictors of morbidity and mortality. Aerobic exercise training can increase V̇O2max, but inter-individual variability is marked and unexplained physiologically. The mechanisms underlying this variability have major clinical implications for extending human healthspan. Here, we report the first comprehensive, RNA-seq study of circulating transcriptome signatures related to ΔV̇O2max. We used RNA-seq to characterize transcriptomic predictors of ΔV̇O2max in healthy women who completed a 16-week, randomized controlled trial comparing higher vs. lower aerobic exercise training volume and intensity (four training groups, fully crossed). We found striking baseline gene expression differences in subjects who responded to aerobic exercise training with robust (R) vs. little/no (NR) ΔV̇O2max.

Project description:Low aerobic exercise capacity is a risk factor for diabetes and strong predictor of mortality; yet some individuals are exercise resistant, and unable to improve exercise capacity through exercise training. To test the hypothesis that resistance to aerobic exercise training underlies metabolic disease-risk, we used selective breeding for 15 generation to develop rat models of low- and high-aerobic response to training. Before exercise training, rats selected as low- and high-responders had similar exercise capacities. However, after 8-wks of treadmill training low-responders failed to improve their exercise capacity, while high-responders improved by 54%. Remarkably, low-responders to aerobic training exhibited pronounced metabolic dysfunction characterized by insulin resistance and increased adiposity, demonstrating that the exercise resistant phenotype segregates with disease risk. Low-responders had impaired exercise-induced angiogenes0is in muscle; however, mitochondrial capacity was intact and increased normally with exercise training, demonstrating that mitochondria are not limiting for aerobic adaptation or responsible for metabolic dysfunction in low-responders. Low-responders had increased stress/inflammatory signaling and altered TGFβ signaling, characterized by hyperphosphorylation of a novel exercise-regulated phosphorylation site on SMAD2. Using this powerful biological model system we have discovered key pathways for low exercise training response that may represent novel targets for the treatment of metabolic disease.

Project description:Aerobic exercise capacity is a strong predictor of disease and survivability but the utility of exercise intervention is largely dependent on how one’s genome interacts with an exercise-training environment. A newly developed rat model selectively bred for inherited differences in response to aerobic exercise training shows to be a useful resource to sort out the networks of genes responsible for signalling exercise-induced changes that benefit cardiac function.

Project description:Microarray analysis was performed with RNA isolated from vastus lateralis muscle biopsies of lean/overweight subjects following 18 days of aerobic exercise training. Samples from lean active individuals were also included. Exercise training led to robust changes in trained muscle. The lean active group profile was distinct from the pre-exercise samples. These results help define the molecular changes associated with aerobic training and contrast with an active phenotype.

Project description:Skeletal muscle adapts to exercise training of various modes, intensities and durations with a programmed gene expression response. This study dissects the independent and combined effects of exercise mode, intensity and duration to identify which exercise has the most positive effects on skeletal muscle health. Full details on exercise groups can be found in: Kraus et al Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2001 Oct;33(10):1774-84 and Bateman et al Am J Cardiol. 2011 Sep 15;108(6):838-44. This study uses a middle aged group of subjects that have 3+ markers of metabolic syndrome. One group remains an inactive control, while 5 groups undergo 9 mo supervised exercise training. Exercise groups are as follows: Inactive control (group B); Mild aerobic exercise - low amount/mod intensity (group A); Moderate aerobic exercise - low amt/vig intensity (group D); High aerobic exercise - high amt/vig intensity (group C); resistance training only (group F); and mod aerobic + resistance training (group E). Each group has 10 subjects (5 men and 5 women), however 3 subjects failed array QC, leaving 8 subjects in group E and 9 subjects in group F. Data were all analyzed pre to post training in a RM ANCOVA, covaried for age and sex or regression to determine genotype/phenotype interactions.

Project description:10 male subjects performed ~45 min one-legged cycling and 4 x 7 maximal concentric-eccentric knee extensions for each leg 15 min later. Thus, one limb performed aerobic and resistance exercise (AE+RE), while the opposing leg did resistance exercise only (RE). Biopsies were obtained from m. vastus lateralis of each leg 3 h after the resistance exercise bout. Gene expression analysis was carried out on the Affymetrix HuGene-2.1-st platform.
