Abstract: | Summary Mice and rats were adjusted to daily treadmill training programs, which were heavy enough to increase the oxidative capacity of skeletal muscles. Endurance training did not affect the activities of catalase and glutathione peroxidase and the concentration of vitamin E in the lungs of mice and rats. Thus increased ventilation and oxygen utilization induced by exercise training do not modify lung antioxidants, in contrast to hyperoxia and hypoxia.This study was supported by the Academy of Finland and the Research Council for Physical Education and Sport (Ministry of Education, Finland). We thank Mr Matti Virtanen for skillful technical assistance. |
