Research Abstract |
I examine the effects of the exercise training on nitric oxide(NO)system in chronic heart failure(CHF)model of rats. Exercise improved cardiac and renal function, and increased the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)and neuronal NOS(nNOS)in left ventricle and kidney of CHF rats. These findings suggest that the upregulation of the renal NO system may be a novel mechanism that could explain the beneficial effects of exercise training.
