Abstract
Introduction: Ischemic preconditioning provides protective effects on ischemia - reperfusion Injury. The aim of the present study was to study the protective effect of high intensity interval training on stress oxidative and myocardial infarction–induced ischemia - reperfusion injury in male Wistar rats.
Methodology: 20 male Wistar rats were randomly assigned in control (Con; n=10) and high intensity interval training (HIIT; n=10). Exercise training was done for 8 weeks, 5 days per week and lasted 40 min per session. Intense interval training consists of 10 intervals of the running with an intensity of 90% of maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) for 2 min and 1 min of running with 50% VO2max. 72 hr after last training session, animals were underwent surgery, and coronary occlusion was achieved by blocking aorta; for 30 min followed by a 120-min period of reperfusion. Glutathione peroxidase (GPX), Glutathione (GSH), Catalase (CAT), Myeloperoxidase (MPO), Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Myocardial infarct size were measured.
Results: Results showed that there was no significant difference between HIIT and Control in GPX and MPO activity following ischemia-reperfusion (p˃0.05). However, CAT activity (p=0.004) and GSH content significantly were higher in HIIT than control. Also, MDA concentration was greater in HIIT than control (p=0.006). While, myocardial infarct size significantly was lesser in HIIT than control (p=0.004).
Discussion: Finally, it can be said that 8 weeks of high intensity interval training can prevent myocardial infarction following ischemia- reperfusion by preconditioning via improving some antioxidant factors, and could been considered as important precautionary method in myocardial infarction events.
