Research Abstract

Whole body periodic acceleration(WBPA) has been developed as a "passive exercise" device to improve endothelial function by increasing shear stress through repetitive movements in spinal axis direction. We investigated the effects of WBPA on blood flow recovery in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia and in patients with peripheral arterial disease(PAD). WBPA increased blood supply to ischemic lower extremities through activation of eNOS signaling and upregulation of pro-angiogenic growth factor in ischemic skeletal muscle. WBPA is a potentially suitable non-invasive intervention to facilitate therapeutic angiogenesis.
