Abstract/OtherAbstract:
MiRNAs regulate cardiac development, hypertrophy and angiogenesis, but their role in cardiac hypertrophy (CH) induced by aerobic training has not previously been studied. Aerobic training promotes physiological CH preserving cardiac function (CF). This study assessed involvement of miRNAs-29 in CH of trained rats. Female Wistar rats (n=7/group) were randomized into three groups: sedentary (S), training 1 (T1), training 2 (T2). T1: swimming sessions of 60min/5days/week/10weeks. T2: Similar to T1 until 8(th) week. On the 9(th) week rats swam 2x/day, and on the 10th week, 3x/day. MiRNAs analysis was performed by miRNA microarray and confirmed by real-time PCR. We assessed: markers of training, CH by ratio of left ventricle (LV) weight/body weight and cardiomyocytes diameter, pathological markers of CH (ANF, skeletal α-actin, α/β-MHC), collagen I and III (COLIAI and COLIIIAI) by real-time PCR, protein collagen by hydroxyproline (OH-proline) concentration, CF and CH by ecocardiography. Training improved aerobic capacity and induced CH. MiRNAs-1, 133a and 133b were down regulated as observed in pathological CH, however without pathological markers. MiRNA-29c expression increased in T1 (52%) and T2 (123%), correlated with a decrease in COLIAI and COLIIIAI expression in T1 (27%, 38%) and T2 (33%, 48%), respectively. MiRNA-29c was inversely correlated to OH-proline concentration (r=0.61; P<0.05). The E/A ratio increased in T2, indicating improved LV compliance. Thus, these results show that aerobic training increase miR-29 expression and decreased collagen gene expression and concentration in the heart, which is relevant to the improved LV compliance and beneficial cardiac effects, associated with aerobic high performance training.
