excessive eccentric exercise induced overtraining model leads to endoplasmic reticulum stress in mice skeletal muscles
Life Sciences, 2016Co-Authors: Bruno Pereira, Jose Rodrigo Pauli, Ellen Cristini De Freitas, Eduardo R Ropelle, Claudio T De Souza, Dennys E Cintra, Alisson L Da Rocha, Ana P Pinto, Alessandro Moura Zagatto, Adelino Sanchez Ramos Da SilvaAbstract:Abstract Aims The present study verified the responses of selected endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress proteins (i.e., BiP, ATF-6, pIRE1, pPERK, and peIF2alpha) in mice skeletal muscles after three different running overtraining (OT) protocols with same external Load (i.e., intensity vs. volume), but performed in downhill, uphill and without inclination. Materials and methods The rodents were randomly divided into control (CT; sedentary mice), overtrained by downhill running (OTR/down), overtrained by uphill running (OTR/up) and overtrained by running without inclination (OTR) groups. The Incremental Load test and exhaustive test were used as performance parameters. Forty hours after the exhaustive test performed at the end of the OT protocols (i.e., at the end of week 8) and after a 2-week total recovery period (i.e., at the end of week 10), the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles were removed and used for immunoblotting. Key findings For both skeletal muscle types, the OTR/down protocol increased the pIRE-1, pPERK and peIF2alpha, which were not normalized after the total recovery period. At the end of week 8, the other two OT protocols up-regulated the BiP, pPERK and peIF2alpha levels only for the soleus muscle. These ER stress proteins were not normalized after the total recovery period for the OTR/up group. Significance The above findings suggest that the OTR/down protocol-induced skeletal muscle ER stress may be linked to a pathological condition in EDL and soleus muscles.

downhill running based overtraining protocol improves hepatic insulin signaling pathway without concomitant decrease of inflammatory proteins
PLOS ONE, 2015Co-Authors: Alisson L Da Rocha, Bruno Pereira, Jose Rodrigo Pauli, Eduardo R Ropelle, Claudio T De Souza, Dennys E Cintra, Adelino Sanchez Ramos Da SilvaAbstract:The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of overtraining (OT) on insulin, inflammatory and gluconeogenesis signaling pathways in the livers of mice. Rodents were divided into control (CT), overtrained by downhill running (OTR/down), overtrained by uphill running (OTR/up) and overtrained by running without inclination (OTR). Rotarod, Incremental Load, exhaustive and grip force tests were used to evaluate performance. Thirty-six hours after a grip force test, the livers were extracted for subsequent protein analyses. The phosphorylation of insulin receptor beta (pIRbeta), glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (pGSK3beta) and forkhead box O1 (pFoxo1) increased in OTR/down versus CT. pGSK3beta was higher in OTR/up versus CT, and pFoxo1 was higher in OTR/up and OTR versus CT. Phosphorylation of protein kinase B (pAkt) and insulin receptor substrate 1 (pIRS–1) were higher in OTR/up versus CT and OTR/down. The phosphorylation of IκB kinase alpha and beta (pIKKalpha/beta) was higher in all OT protocols versus CT, and the phosphorylation of stress-activated protein kinases/Jun amino-terminal kinases (pSAPK-JNK) was higher in OTR/down versus CT. Protein levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator 1alpha (PGC-1alpha) and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4alpha (HNF-4alpha) were higher in OTR versus CT. In summary, OTR/down improved the major proteins of insulin signaling pathway but up-regulated TRB3, an Akt inhibitor, and its association with Akt.

overtraining is associated with dna damage in blood and skeletal muscle cells of swiss mice
BMC Physiology, 2013Co-Authors: Bruno Pereira, Jose Rodrigo Pauli, Lusânia Maria Greggi Antunes, Ellen Cristini De Freitas, Mara Ribeiro Almeida, Vinicius De Paula Venâncio, Eduardo R Ropelle, Claudio T De Souza, Dennys E Cintra, Marcelo PapotiAbstract:The alkaline version of the single-cell gel (comet) assay is a useful method for quantifying DNA damage. Although some studies on chronic and acute effects of exercise on DNA damage measured by the comet assay have been performed, it is unknown if an aerobic training protocol with intensity, volume, and Load clearly defined will improve performance without leading to peripheral blood cell DNA damage. In addition, the effects of overtraining on DNA damage are unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of aerobic training and overtraining on DNA damage in peripheral blood and skeletal muscle cells in Swiss mice. To examine possible changes in these parameters with oxidative stress, we measured reduced glutathione (GSH) levels in total blood, and GSH levels and lipid peroxidation in muscle samples. Performance evaluations (i.e., Incremental Load and exhaustive tests) showed significant intra and inter-group differences. The overtrained (OTR) group showed a significant increase in the percentage of DNA in the tail compared with the control (C) and trained (TR) groups. GSH levels were significantly lower in the OTR group than in the C and TR groups. The OTR group had significantly higher lipid peroxidation levels compared with the C and TR groups. Aerobic and anaerobic performance parameters can be improved in training at maximal lactate steady state during 8 weeks without leading to DNA damage in peripheral blood and skeletal muscle cells or to oxidative stress in skeletal muscle cells. However, overtraining induced by downhill running training sessions is associated with DNA damage in peripheral blood and skeletal muscle cells, and with oxidative stress in skeletal muscle cells and total blood.

a new overtraining protocol for mice based on downhill running sessions
Clinical and Experimental Pharmacology and Physiology, 2012Co-Authors: Bruno Pereira, Jose Rodrigo Pauli, Eduardo R Ropelle, Claudio T De Souza, Dennys E Cintra, Luis Armando Leonardo Filho, Guilherme Figueiredo Alves, Mario J A Saad, Adelino Sanchez Ramos Da SilvaAbstract:1. The purpose of the present study was to verify whether a downhill running protocol was able to induce non-functional overreaching in > 75% of mice. 2. Mice were divided into control (C), trained (TR) and overtrained (OTR) groups. Bodyweight and food intake were recorded weekly. The Incremental Load test (ILT) and the exhaustive test (ET) were used to measure performance before and after aerobic training and overtraining protocols. 3. Although the bodyweight of the OTR group was lower than that of the C group at the end of Week 7, the food intake of the OTR group was higher than that of the C and TR groups at the end of Week 8. Evaluation of results from the ILT and ET revealed significant intra- and inter-group differences: whereas the parameters measured by both tests increased significantly in the TR group, they were significantly decreased in the OTR group. 4. In conclusion, this new overtraining protocol based on downhill running sessions induced non-functional overreaching in 100% of mice.

The purpose of the present study was to verify whether a downhill running protocol was able to induce non-functional overreaching in > 75% of mice. 2. Mice were divided into control (C), trained (TR) and overtrained (OTR) groups. Bodyweight and food intake were recorded weekly. The Incremental Load test (ILT) and the exhaustive test (ET) were used to measure performance before and after aerobic training and overtraining protocols. 3. Although the bodyweight of the OTR group was lower than that of the C group at the end of Week 7, the food intake of the OTR group was higher than that of the C and TR groups at the end of Week 8. Evaluation of results from the ILT and ET revealed significant intra- and inter-group differences: whereas the parameters measured by both tests increased significantly in the TR group, they were significantly decreased in the OTR group. 4. In conclusion, this new overtraining protocol based on downhill running sessions induced non-functional overreaching in 100% of mice.
