Untargeted metabolomics analysis of ischemia–reperfusion-injured hearts ex vivo from sedentary and exercise-trained rats

Introduction The effects of exercise on the heart and its resistance to disease are well-documented. Recent studies have identified that exercise-induced resistance to arrhythmia is due to the preservation of mitochondrial membrane potential.

Description
Summary:Introduction The effects of exercise on the heart and its resistance to disease are well-documented. Recent studies have identified that exercise-induced resistance to arrhythmia is due to the preservation of mitochondrial membrane potential. Objectives To identify novel metabolic changes that occur parallel to these mitochondrial alterations, we performed non-targeted metabolomics analysis on hearts from sedentary and exercise-trained rats challenged with isolated heart ischemia–reperfusion injury (I/R). Methods Eight-week old Sprague–Dawley rats were treadmill trained 5 days/week for 6 weeks (exercise duration and intensity progressively increased to 1 h at 30 m/min up a 10.5% incline, 75–80% VO 2max ). The recovery of pre-ischemic function for sedentary rat hearts was 28.8 ± 5.4% (N = 12) compared to exercise trained hearts, which recovered 51.9% ± 5.7 (N = 14) (p
