Cellular Stress Response Gene Expression During Upper and Lower Body High Intensity Exercises.

<h4>Objectives</h4>The aim was to compare the effect of upper and lower body high-intensity exercise on chosen genes expression in athletes and non-athletes.<h4>Method</h4>Fourteen elite male artistic gymnasts (EAG) aged 20.6 ± 3.3 years and 14 physically active men (PAM) age...

description <h4>Objectives</h4>The aim was to compare the effect of upper and lower body high-intensity exercise on chosen genes expression in athletes and non-athletes.<h4>Method</h4>Fourteen elite male artistic gymnasts (EAG) aged 20.6 ± 3.3 years and 14 physically active men (PAM) aged 19.9 ± 1.0 years performed lower and upper body 30 s Wingate Tests. Blood samples were collected before, 5 and 30 minutes after each effort to assess gene expression via PCR.<h4>Results</h4>Significantly higher mechanical parameters after lower body exercise was observed in both groups, for relative power (8.7 ± 1.2 W/kg in gymnasts, 7.2 ± 1.2 W/kg in controls, p = 0.01) and mean power (6.7 ± 0.7 W/kg in gymnasts, 5.4 ± 0.8 W/kg in controls, p = 0.01). No differences in lower versus upper body gene expression were detected for all tested genes as well as between gymnasts and physical active man. For IL-6 m-RNA time-dependent effect was observed.<h4>Conclusions</h4>Because of no significant differences in expression of genes associated with cellular stress response the similar adaptive effect to exercise may be obtained so by lower and upper body exercise.
