| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Polyamines such as putrescine are poly-cation molecules indispensable for proliferation of the eukaryotic cells. Polyamines are also known as modulators of ion channels regulating physiological excitability of cardiac cells. Therefore, polyamines may play a significant role in the hypertrophy and arrhythmia of athletes' hearts. To examine the effects of oral administration of polyamine, rats were bred for 9 weeks at four combined conditions of presence and absence of 1 mg/ml of putrescine in drinking water and freely accessible wheel for spontaneous running. Putrescine concentration in the cardiac cells increased in the putrescine (+) / exercise (-) group, but not in the putrescine (+) / exercise (+) group. Electrocardiograph and structural parameters of the heart showed no appreciable effect of putrescine administration with and without exercise. Polyamine concentration in the cardiac cells was suggested to be strictly controlled to regulate exercise induced hypertrophy of the heart.
