Outline of Final Research Achievements

In persons with cervical spinal cord injury (CSCI), adrenalin secretion during exercise is absent due to a loss of sympathetic nervous control for adrenal medulla, while it’s intact in persons with lumbar spinal cord injury (LSCI). We hypothesized that a loss of adrenalin secretion during exercise would be associated with a production of oxidized LDL. Now we observed that both of oxidized LDL and plasma adrenaline did not increase in CSCI, while both increased in LSCI. The present results suggest that no increase in oxidized LDL for CSCI is associated with the loss of adrenalin secretion and that CSCI can exercise safely until at the exercise intensity set up in the present study.
