The effect of eight week of high intensity interval training on expression of mir-210 and ephrinA3 mrna in soleus muscle healthy male rats

Mir-210, is proangiogenic microRNAis end thelial cells. This microRNA, causes the repression of some genes and proteins target; so cause angiogenesis process. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on Mir-210 and EphrinA3 receptor genes expression in soleusmusclesof male rats. In this experimental study, Twelve Wistar male rats(ageof eightweeks, average weight of 210/5±9/77)were randomly divided into exercise(n=6)and control (n=6) groups.High Intensity Interval Training was formed five days a week for eight weeks to taly including three Intervals (four minutes with an intensityof 90 to 100%VO2max and two minutes with an intensityof 50 to 60%VO2max).24 hours after exercise protocol, the rats were dissected and separated soleusmuscle. Mir-210 and EphrinA3receptor genes expression was performed by Real Time-PCRtechnique. Mir-210 and EphrinA3receptor genes expression were calculated by using the2∆∆CT and in dependentt-test to determine the significance of variables. Results showed that HIIT there had no significant effects on Mir-210 gene expression (p=0/16); Whe ars EphrinA3 gene expression in the exercise group was statistically significant (p=0/000). It seems that a non-significant increase of Mir-210 and reduce in EphrinA3 gene expres sion, causes proangiogenic Operation ofendothelial cells and an increase in VO2max of rats following eight weeks of HIIT performance can be due to increased angiogenesis process.
