Systemic Oxidative Stress

AbstractOxidative stress plays a role in the progression of chronic heart failure (CHF). We investigated whether systemic oxidative stress is linked to exercise intolerance and skeletal muscle abnormalities in patients with CHF. We recruited 30 males: 17 CHF patients, 13 healthy controls. All participants underwent blood testing, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). The serum thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS; lipid peroxides) were significantly higher (5.1 ± 1.1 vs. 3.4 ± 0.7 μmol/L, p < 0.01) and the serum activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant, were significantly lower (9.2 ± 7.1 vs. 29.4 ± 9.7 units/L, p < 0.01) in the CHF cohort versus the controls. The oxygen uptake (VO2) at both peak exercise and anaerobic threshold was significantly depressed in the CHF patients; the parameters of aerobic capacity were inversely correlated with serum TBARS and positively correlated with serum SOD activity. The phosphocreatine loss during plantar-flexion exercise and intramyocellular lipid content in the participants' leg muscle measured by 31phosphorus- and 1proton-MRS, respectively, were significantly elevated in the CHF patients, indicating abnormal intramuscular energy metabolism. Notably, the skeletal muscle abnormalities were related to the enhanced systemic oxidative stress. Our analyses revealed that systemic oxidative stress is related to lowered whole-body aerobic capacity and skeletal muscle dysfunction in CHF patients.

MIOPATIA MUSCULAR ESQUELÉTICA INDUZIDA PELA INSUFICIÊNCIA CARDÍACA DE ETIOLOGIA HIPERTENSIVA: PAPEL TERAPÊUTICO DO TREINAMENTO FÍSICO AERÓBIOHYPERTENSIVE HEART FAILURE-INDUCED SKELETAL MUSCLE MYOPATHY: THERAPEUTIC ROLE OF AEROBIC EXERCISE TRAININGRESUMOA insuficiência cardíaca (IC) é a via final comum da maioria das doenças que acometem o coração. Entre os fatores de risco conhecidos, a hipertensão arterial (HA) é a doença mais frequentemente associada à IC. Caracterizada pela intolerância ao exercício, a IC promove disfunção cardíaca e alterações intrínsecas musculares envolvidas na redução da capacidade física. Várias anormalidades do músculo esquelético têm sido descritas em pacientes e animais com IC, incluindo atrofia, fibrose, mudança na composição dos tipos de fibras, rarefação microvascular e reduzida capacidade de oxidação. Por outro lado, o treinamento físico aeróbio (TFA) vem sendo utilizado como uma importante terapia não farmacológica para a prevenção e o tratamento da IC; em parte, por melhorar a função endotelial e a perfusão coronária, diminuir a resistência vascular periférica e induzir o remodelamento das células musculares cardíacas e esqueléticas, levando ao aumento da captação de oxigênio e resistência à fadiga. Os mecanismos e vias de sinalização intracelular envolvidas nas anormali
