BACKGROUND Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during exercise has been linked to increased oxygen consumption. ROS could also be produced by other mechanisms-for example, a respiratory burst of neutrophils or catecholamine auto-oxidation-when oxygen consumption is only moderately increased. OBJECTIVES To investigate noradrenaline concentrations, neutrophil counts, plasma antioxidants, and lipid oxidation products before and after acute resistance exercise. METHODS 17 male participants undertook a submaximal resistance exercise circuit (10 exercises; 75% of the one repetition maximum; mean (SD) exercise time, 18.6 (1.1) minutes). Blood samples were taken before and immediately after exercise and analysed for plasma antioxidants, noradrenaline, neutrophils, and lipid oxidation products. Wilcoxon's signed-rank test and Pearson's correlation coefficient were used for calculations. RESULTS Neutrophils, noradrenaline, fat soluble antioxidants, and lipid oxidation products increased after exercise. Noradrenaline concentrations were associated with higher antioxidant concentrations. Neutrophils were related to higher concentrations of conjugated dienes. CONCLUSIONS Submaximal resistance exercise increases plasma antioxidants. This might reflect enhanced antioxidant defence in response to the oxidative stress of exercise, though this is not efficient for inhibiting lipid oxidation. The correlation between noradrenaline concentrations and plasma antioxidants suggests a modulating role of the stress hormone. Neutrophils are a possible source of oxidative stress after resistance exercise.

Effects of maximal and sub-maximal resistance exercise on muscle damage, inflammation, intrinsic antioxidant in non-athlete men

Introduction: The intensity of the strength training at the start for preventing muscle damage, inflammation and intrinsic antioxidant is not well defined. Intrestingly, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of maximal and sub-maximal resistance exercise on muscle damage, inflammation and intrinsic antioxidant in non-athlete men. Materials and Methods: Nineteen young untrained me...

Gender differences in fat oxidation and sympathetic nervous system activity at rest and during submaximal exercise in older individuals.

1. Gender differences in fat oxidation at rest and during exercise may contribute to higher body fat in women. We examined gender differences in fat oxidation at rest and during submaximal exercise and their relationship to sympathetic nervous system activity, free fatty acid availability, body composition and aerobic capacity in older volunteers. 2. We measured free fatty acid kinetics using [...

Effects of endoscopic transthoracic sympathicotomy on hemodynamic and neurohumoral responses to exercise in humans.

Endoscopic transthoracic sympathicotomy (ETS) is a minimal invasive procedure of thoracic sympathetic block and has been used successfully in the treatment of primary palmar hyperhidrosis. To examine the effect of Th 2-3 ETS on hemodynamic responses to submaximal upright treadmill exercise in humans, cardiac output, plasma noradrenaline and adrenaline at rest and during the last 40s of stage 2 ...
