| Abstract |
|
Redox reactions control fundamental processes of human biology. Therefore, it is safe to assume that the responses and adaptations to exercise are, at least in part, mediated by redox reactions. In this review, we are trying to show that redox reactions are the basis of exercise physiology by outlining the redox signaling pathways that regulate four characteristic acute exercise-induced responses (muscle contractile function, glucose uptake, blood flow and bioenergetics) and four chronic exercise-induced adaptations (mitochondrial biogenesis, muscle hypertrophy, angiogenesis and redox homeostasis). Based on our analysis, we argue that redox regulation should be acknowledged as central to exercise physiology.

Redox homeostasisCollectively, it is clear that the upgraded redox homeostasis after exercise training is mediated by delicate redox processes (Fig. 8). In particular, RONS activate a series of transcription factors that rapidly turn on gene coding for the expression of antioxidant enzymes. The improved repair mechanisms that facilitate more rapid and efficient turnover of oxidatively modified proteins and DNA, as well as the increased resistance to redox modifications in response to a following stimulus, corroborate also towards a more solid redox homeostasis. For an in-depth analysis of the topic, the reader is referred to reviews about the upregulation of antioxidant genes by exercise training [9,318], the oxidative stress biomarkers and the oxidation repair mechanisms [255,370,371] and the regulation of the two central redox-sensitive transcription factors, NFkB and Nrf2 [340,344,372]. Proposed mechanisms on how RONS regulate redox homeostasis. Panel A based on [9,318]; Panel B based on [344,372]; Panel C based on [255,370]. ARE, antioxidant response element; DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid; IKK, IκB kinase; Keap1, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1; NFkB, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells; Nrf2, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2; OGG1, 8-oxoguanine glycosylase; ROS, reactive oxygen species.
