Regular aerobic exercise prevents and restores age-related declines in endothelium-dependent vasodilation in healthy men.
BACKGROUND In sedentary humans endothelium-dependent vasodilation is impaired with advancing age contributing to their increased cardiovascular risk, whereas endurance-trained adults demonstrate lower age-related risk. We determined the influence of regular aerobic exercise on the age-related decline in endothelium-dependent vasodilation. METHODS AND RESULTS In a cross-sectional study, 68 hea...
متن کاملRegular aerobic exercise and the age-related increase in carotid artery intima-media thickness in healthy men.
Carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT), an independent risk factor for stroke, increases with age. Habitual exercise is associated with a lower prevalence of stroke, but it is unclear whether this protective effect could be mediated through a favorable influence on carotid IMT. We examined this possibility using both cross-sectional and intervention approaches. First, 137 healthy men (age ...
متن کاملAerobic exercise training can reverse age-related peripheral circulatory changes in healthy older men.
BACKGROUND The age-related decline in maximal oxygen consumption is attenuated by habitual aerobic exercise. However, the relative effects of training on central and peripheral responses to exercise in older subjects are not known. The present study assessed the contribution of central and peripheral responses to the age-associated decline in peak oxygen consumption and compared the effect of e...
متن کاملEnhanced endothelium-dependent vasodilation in older endurance-trained men.
We hypothesized that abnormal endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDD) found in older otherwise healthy subjects can be attenuated with long-term endurance training. Ten endurance-trained men, 68.5 +/- 2.3 yr old, and 10 healthy sedentary men, 64.7 +/- 1.4 yr old, were studied. Aerobic exercise capacity (VO(2 max)), fasting plasma cholesterol, insulin, and homocysteine concentrations were measu...
متن کاملRegular aerobic exercise training improves endothelium-dependent arterial dilation in patients with impaired fasting glucose.
V ehkavaara et al. (1) demonstrated that impaired endothel iumdependent arterial dilation characterizes patients with impaired fasting glucose (IFG). The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of exercise training on endothelium-dependent arterial dilation in subjects with IFG using noninvasive measurement of flowmediated, endothelium-dependent dilation of the brachial artery.
