Effect of exercise training on liver antioxidant status of deoxycorticosterone acetate salt induced hypertensive rats.

Résumé

Several animal models have been developed to study the pathogenesis of hypertension. Deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) salt induced hypertensive rats are adrenal models used to mimic human Conn's syndrome. Because previous studies showed a beneficial effect of chronic exercise (swimming) on the development of arterial hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats (which appears similar to human essential hypertension), we decided to evaluate the effects of swimming on DOCA-salt induced hypertension and liver antioxidant status. Therefore, the aim of this experiment was to study whether the swim training would improve hypertension and liver antioxidant status in DOCA-salt rats. DOCA-salt rats and control Sprague-Dawley rats were trained to swim 1 h/day, 5 days/week for 6 weeks and were sacrificed 48 h after the last exercise period. Systolic blood pressure was recorded before the sacrifice, and liver antioxidant status was evaluated in hepatic homogenates after the sacrifice. Swim exercise did not decrease systolic blood pressure in control and DOCA-salt rats but induced changes in liver activities of antioxidant enzymes, showing that exercise provoked liver oxidative stress in control and DOCA-salt rats. In comparison with our previous studies using spontaneously hypertensive rats, we conclude that the beneficial effects of chronic exercise on systolic blood pressure in rats are dependent on strain and the type of experimental hypertension.
