Abstract

Introduction and purpose: Age-related changes in the expression of angiogenesis-stimulating and inhibitory genes are characteristics of aging and endothelial dysfunction. Aerobic exercise can stop or reduce this disorder. Considering the importance of resistance training in the rehabilitation of the elderly, the aim of this study was to investigate the compatibility of the response of the stimulating and inhibiting factors of angiogenesis after resistance exercise intervention in the elderly. Methodology: 24 elderly men with an average age of 67.75 years were selected in an accessible and purposeful manner. Blood samples were taken before and after a resistance activity session before and after 8 weeks of resistance training. Real Time PCR method was used to express HIF-1, VEGF, SDF-1 and VEGI genes in blood tissue. The difference in the values of the variables was evaluated by the method of analysis of variance with repeated measurement of mixed design at the level of P≤0.05 using SPSS software version 25. Findings: HIF-1, VEGF and SDF-1 gene expression levels of the training group increased in the stages of the primary post-test (after one session), secondary pre-test and secondary post-test (after 8 weeks of training) and VEGI had no gene expression. Discussion and conclusion: It can be cautiously said that although one session of resistance training leads to gene expression of angiogenesis factors, long-term resistance training with sufficient intensity and volume can It activates the rate of angiogenesis in a much wider range and should be considered as a supplement to aerobic exercises in old age.

Abstract

The aim of this study was comparing professional futsal practice sessions with and without blood flow restriction on angiogenesis and angiostatin stimulation in active young men. Among physical education students, 12 volunteer selected and randomly divided into two groups of exercise with and without blood restriction. All of the subjects did the 3 vs. 3 professional futsal practice in 6 repetition of two minutes. One minute determined as resting time between the repetitions. In exercise group with blood restriction, a cuff on the thighs with pressure of 140 Mm Hg were applied. The blood samples were collected before and after the exercise sessions to determine the ratio and values of VEGF and endostatin concentration. Elisa method was used to measure the variables. To determine within and between group differences, Paired T test and Independent T test were used respectively at significance level of 0.05. The results showed no significant differences for the measured variables between the groups. However, VEGF significantly decreased in the two groups after exercise session (P=0.002). The ratio of VEGF to endostatin significantly increased in exercise with blood flow restriction group (P=0.002), but not in the Exercise group (P=0.006). Interestingly, the endostatin concentration increased significantly after the trial (BFR: P=0.003, NONBFR: P=0.005). Blood lactate was significantly higher in exercise group with blood restriction(P=0.003). In conclusion, a professional futsal practice session can decrease blood level of VEGF and increase its endostatin.
