Description:
The aim of the present study was to investigate the time and intensity dependent effects of exercise on the heart components of the lipolytic complex. Wistar rats ran on a treadmill with the speed of 18 m/min for 30 min (M30) or 120 min (M120) or with the speed of 28 m/min for 30 min (F30). The mRNA and protein expressions of the compounds adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), comparative gene identification-58 (CGI-58), G0/G1 switch gene 2 (G0S2), hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) were examined by real-time PCR and Western blot, respectively. Lipid content of free fatty acids (FFA), diacylglycerols (DG) and triacylglycerols (TG) were estimated by gas liquid chromatography. We observed virtually no changes in the left ventricle lipid contents and only minor fluctuations in its ATGL mRNA levels. This was in contrast with its right counterpart i.e., the content of TG and DG decreased in response to both increased duration and intensity of a run. This occurred in tandem with increased mRNA expression for ATGL, CGI-58 and decreased expression of G0S2. It is concluded that exercise affects behavior of the components of the lipolytic system and the lipid content in the heart ventricles. However, changes observed in the left ventricle did not mirror those in the right one.
