Exercise studies were performed on females from six different genetic mouse models that have been shown to exhibit alterations in pathological cardiac adaptation and hypertrophy. (elsevier.com)
Impact statement: This research is relevant as the hypertrophic signaling pathways tested here have only been characterized for their role in pathological hypertrophy, and not in the context of exercise or physiological hypertrophy. (elsevier.com)
Conclusion: The association of thyroid hormone with high-intensity exercise produced cardiac hypertrophy, and generated a standard hypertrophy not directly correlated to the degree of fibrosis. (bvsalud.org)
Among the molecular, biochemical and cellular processes that orchestrate the development of the different phenotypes of cardiac hypertrophy in response to physiological stimuli or pathological insults, the specific contribution of exercise training has recently become appreciated. (bvsalud.org)
Physiological cardiac hypertrophy involves complex cardiac remodeling that occurs as an adaptive response to static or dynamic chronic exercise, but the stimuli and molecular mechanisms underlying transduction of the hemodynamic overload into myocardial growth are poorly understood. (bvsalud.org)
This review summarizes the physiological stimuli that induce concentric and eccentric physiological hypertrophy, and discusses the molecular mechanisms, sarcomeric organization, and signaling pathway involved, also showing that the cardiac markers of pathological hypertrophy (atrial natriuretic factor, β-myosin heavy chain and α-skeletal actin) are not increased. (bvsalud.org)
There is no fibrosis and no cardiac dysfunction in eccentric or concentric hypertrophy induced by exercise training. (bvsalud.org)
Here, we show that the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor is locally activated in pathological and physiological cardiac hypertrophy, although with exercise training it can be stimulated independently of the involvement of angiotensin II. (bvsalud.org)
These findings show that glucocorticoids, rather than androgens, undergo adaptive changes in the circulation and in muscle during the development of exercise-induced cardiac hypertrophy. (unboundmedicine.com)
When stressors that encourage this concentric hypertrophy are reduced or eliminated (either surgically corrected in the case of cardiac defects, or hypertension is reduced from diet and exercise) it is possible for the heart to undergo 'reverse remodeling', returning to a somewhat more 'normal' state instead of progressing to a dilated, pathologic phenotype. (wikipedia.org)
This resulted in extreme cardiomyocyte proliferation and hypertrophy - excessive growth of the individual cardiomyocytes - leading to a giant heart (cardiomegaly) that left little room for blood to enter. (labroots.com)
We propose that growth-factor-induced skeletal-muscle hypertrophy and changes in myofibre phenotype are mediated by calcium mobilization and are critically regulated by the calcineurin/NF-ATc1 signalling pathway. (nih.gov)
Various aetiologies, in reaction to this, may induce compensatory mechanisms consisting of excentric (dilatation) and concentric hypertrophy. (ox.ac.uk)

Design and patients Transmitral flow velocity profiles and standard non-invasive haemodynamic indices were obtained serially over seven days after symptom limited bicycle exercise tests in 18 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and eight normal subjects. (bmj.com)
Results The intensity of exercise, as assessed by respiratory gas analysis, was lower in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy than in normal subjects. (bmj.com)
In contrast, patients with dilated cardiomyopathy showed a sustained decrease in the peak early diastolic filling velocity and a sustained increase in the deceleration time of early filling for 24 hours or more after exercise. (bmj.com)
Because other haemodynamic variables recovered within one hour after exercise even in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, the postexercise changes in ventricular filling were not explained by changes in loading conditions. (bmj.com)
The efficacy of exercise training on a daily basis in dilated cardiomyopathy requires further evaluation. (bmj.com)
In this study, we investigated the recovery process of the exercise induced diastolic left ventricular dysfunction in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, using reproducible Doppler echocardiographic techniques. (bmj.com)

Objective To investigate the recovery process of exercise induced diastolic dysfunction in heart failure, using Doppler echocardiographic techniques. (bmj.com)
Conclusions Exercise induced diastolic left ventricular dysfunction of the failing heart persists for 24 hours or more after exercise. (bmj.com)
Diastolic ventricular function of the failing heart is reported to be impaired during exercise. (bmj.com)
13 We further showed that the exercise induced diastolic dysfunction is attenuated by β adrenoceptor blockade. (bmj.com)
14 Because diastolic ventricular function is sensitive to transient myocardial metabolic insults, these findings suggest that exercise exerts a harmful metabolic effect on the failing myocardium through sympathetic stimulation. (bmj.com)
Moreover, the exercise induced diastolic dysfunction may persist despite cessation of exercise. (bmj.com)
15 Thus even a physiological sympathetic activation during exercise may cause a sustained diastolic dysfunction in the failing heart because of its susceptibility to sympathetic stimulation. (bmj.com)
Thus to determine a safe and logical exercise programme for patients with chronic heart failure it is important to clarify how long exercise induced diastolic dysfunction persists. (bmj.com)
Determine whether resting and exercise-induced increases in LV diastolic pressures are related to exaggerated right-left heart coupling and to increased afterload. (strokecenter.org)
The patient had a history of cardiomegaly with diastolic dysfunction and a bipolar disorder treated with lithium, lamotrigine, gabapentin. (swjpcc.com)

4-6 Moreover, exercise training may in itself have deleterious effects on the failing myocardium, because of the presence of several intrinsic abnormalities susceptible to exercise induced sympathetic stimulation and consequent tachycardia. (bmj.com)

Myocardial tolerance to ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is improved by exercise training, but this cardioprotection is impaired by the chronic use of anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS). (nih.gov)
If this is the case, the harmful metabolic effects may accumulate during exercise training or even during daily physical activities, promoting progression of myocardial failure. (bmj.com)
and (3) while the training induction of myocardial hexokinase is inhibited by both beta 1- and beta 1 + beta 2-antagonists, myocardium may increase its ability to utilize lactate during exercise with training despite beta 1-blockade. (curehunter.com)
Since mitochondria are responsible for the production of ATP, agents that interfere with the physiological myocardial mitochondrial function are expected to induce depletion of ATP pool. (southlaketimes.com)

1-3 However, exercise activates neurohumoral factors, reduces renal blood flow, and perhaps precipitates cardiac arrhythmias. (bmj.com)

However, his exercise tolerance was well. (springer.com)
Recent studies have shown unequivocally that exercise training for several months has beneficial effects on exercise tolerance, the autonomic nerve system, and the quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure. (bmj.com)
