EFEITO SOBRE O ESTRESSE OXIDATIVO PROMOVIDO POR SESSÕES DE TREINAMENTO AERÓBICO COMPARATIVAMENTE A SESSÕES ANAERÓBICAS EM JOGADORES JUVENIS BRASILEIROS DE FUTEBOL

Abstracts

OBJECTIVE:

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of aerobic vs. anaerobic intense training sessions on biomarkers of oxidative stress.

METHODS:

The included sample comprised 18 junior male soccer players (18-21 years) during the intermediate season. Blood samples were obtained before (baseline) and after aerobic or anaerobic training sessions and the following substances were assayed: (i) the biomarkers of cellular damage Thiobarbituric Acid-Reactive Substances and Oxidized Glutathione; (ii) the non-enzymatic antioxidants Reduced Glutathione and Total-Glutathione, (iii) the antioxidant enzymes Superoxide Dismutase, Catalase, Glutathione Reductase, Glutathione Peroxidase and Glutathione S-Transferase.

RESULTS:

(a) the contents of Thiobarbituric Acid-Reactive Substances and Oxidized Glutathione showed no significant differences before vs. after aerobic or anaerobic training sessions. (b) After aerobic training sessions, the activity of Superoxide Dismutase, Glutathione Reductase, and the contents of Reduced Glutathione and Total Glutathione were decreased; the activity of Glutathione S-transferase and Glutathione Peroxidase were increased while Catalase activity remained unaltered. (c) After anaerobic training sessions, Catalase activity decreased; Glutathione-Peroxidase increased; Superoxide Dismutase, Glutathione Reductase, and Reduced, Oxidized and Total Glutathione showed no significant differences.

CONCLUSION:

These results provide evidence of a more pronounced systemic oxidative stress after the aerobic as compared to the anaerobic training session in young soccer players.

OBJETIVO:

Investigar o efeito no estresse oxidativo promovido por sessão de treinamento aeróbico comparativamente à sessão anaeróbica em jogadores de futebol juvenis.

MÉTODOS:

Amostras de sangue de 18 jogadores de futebol juvenis (idade entre 18-21 anos) foram utilizadas. Estas amostras foram obtidas imediatamente antes e após um conjunto de sessão de treinamentoaeróbico comparativamente ao de sessão anaeróbica e biomarcadores de dano celular como conteúdos de Substâncias Reativas a Ácido Tiobarbitúrico (TBARS) no plasma, os conteúdos de defesas antioxidantes nãoenzimáticas como a Glutationa Reduzida, Glutationa Oxidada, e Glutationa Total, bem como as atividades de enzimas antioxidantes como Superóxido Dismutase, Catalase, Glutationa Redutase, Glutationa Peroxidase e Glutationa S-Transferase foram avaliadas.

RESULTADOS:

Os conteúdos de TBARS e Glutationa Oxidada não apresentaram diferenças significativas na comparação entre ambas as sessões. Entretanto, após a sessão de treinamento aeróbico, as atividades da Superóxido Dismutase e Glutationa Redutase, bem como os conteúdos de Glutationa Reduzida e Glutationa Total mostraram diminuições significativas, enquanto que as atividades da Glutationa S-Transferase e Glutationa Peroxidase foram aumentadas e as da Catalase não mostraram diferenças. Por outro lado, após a sessão de treinamento anaeróbico, a atividade da Catalase reduziu-se, a da Glutationa Peroxidase foi significativamente aumentada, enquanto que as da Superóxido Dismutase e Glutationa Reductase, assim como os conteúdos de Glutationa Reduzida, Glutationa Oxidada e Glutationa Total não se alteraram significativamente.

CONCLUSÃO:

Os resultados evidenciam um estresse oxidativo sistêmico mais acentuado após a sessão de treinamento aeróbico comparativamente à sessão anaeróbica em jogadores de futebol juvenis.

INTRODUCTION

Soccer is an intermittent sport that encompasses brief bouts of high-intensity running and longer periods of low-intensity exercise, plus changes of space, intensity, flexibility, direction, acceleration capability and basic speed.11 Little T, Alun WG. Specificity of acceleration, maximum speed, and agility in professional soccer players. J Strength Cond Res. 2005; 19(1):76-8.,22 Souglis A, Bogdanis GC, Giannopoulou I, Papadopoulos CH, Apostolidis N.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/15438627.2014....
The structure of a training program induces muscle changes; thus an endurance protocol produces major adaptations in aerobic metabolism, while sprint training increases the concentration of energetic substrates and the activity of anaerobic-metabolism-related enzymes.33 Rodas G, Ventura JL, Cadefau JA, Cussó R, Parra J. A short training program for the rapid improvement of both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. Eur J Appl Physiol. 2000; 82(5-6): 480-6. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s004210000223
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s004210000223...

The routine normally used for the physical training of soccer players improves aerobic capacity, resulting in na increase in oxygen consumption, particularly in skeletal muscle and heart;44 Sen CK. Oxidants and antioxidants in exercise. J Appl Physiol. 1995;79(3):675-86. this increase in O2 consumption is associated with increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at levels that may overwhelm the antioxidant defenses.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007.

Exercise-induced aerobic bioenergetic reactions in mitochondria and cytosol increase the production of ROS,55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. which are molecules that have one or more unpaired electrons in their outer orbitals.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. Excess of ROS can be scavenged by enzymatic as well as non-enzymatic antioxidants to protect against deleterious oxidative stress,66 Mankowski RT, Anton SD, Buford TW, Leeuwenburgh C. Dietary antioxidants as modifiers of physiologic adaptations to exercise. Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2015; 47(9):1857-68. http://dx.doi.org/10.1249/MSS.0000000000000620
http://dx.doi.org/10.1249/MSS.0000000000...
which in turn can be defined as an imbalance betweenoxidants and antioxidants in favor of the former.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. Antioxidants are substances that delay or prevent the oxidation of a substrate; they can act by blocking the formation of ROS or by interacting with them, turning them into inactive and electrically stable compounds, thus decreasing their capacity to damage important biomolecules.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007.

As every tissue, muscle fibers also contain both enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants that work as a complex, continuous and concerted ROS detoxification system; each of these antioxidants is responsible for the reduction of different ROS, and they are located in distinct cellular compartments.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. These antioxidants protect muscle fibers from oxidative injury during periods of increased oxidant production (e.g., intense or prolonged exercise).77 Powers SK, Jackson MJ. Exercise-induced oxidative stress: cellular Mechanisms and impact on muscle force production. Physiol Rev. 2008; 88(4):1243-76. http://dx.doi.org/10.1152/physrev.00031.2007

soccer is one of these sports,1010 Andersson H, Karlsen A, Blomhoff R, Raastad T, Kadi F. Plasma antioxidante responses and oxidative stress following a soccer game in elite female players. Scand J Med Sci Sports. 2010; 20(4):600-8. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1600-0838.2009.00987.x

As mentioned above, relatively few studies on oxidative stress related to soccer players have been reported so far and no previous study was carried out comparing the effect of aerobic vs. anaerobic training sessions on the antioxidant defenses and biomarkers of oxidative stress in soccer players.

METHODS

Subjects

Eighteen men (average age 18.27 ± 0.21 years; average weight 73.29 ± 1.83 kg; average height 180 ± 0.1 cm and average Body Mass Index 22.73 ± 0.26 kg/m2) participated in the present study, all of them junior soccer players with the "Avaí" club (main division of the state of Santa Catarina), located in the city of Florianopolis, Southern Brazil, during the intermediate season.

Participants were healthy, non-smokers and did not frequently consume caffeine or alcoholic beverages. The objectives and procedures of this research were explained to the participants before they were asked to sign a written consent. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee on Human Research of the Federal University of Santa Catarina (CEUA case number 014/2001).

Experimental design

Blood samples (3-5 ml) were collected from each group just before and immediately after an aerobic or anaerobic training session for analysis. Diet (quality and quantity) was controlled by the team's medical staff, and the consumed amounts regarding antioxidant content were similar among the athletes (fruit, vegetables, etc.).

Early in the morning (7 AM), while fasting, blood samples were harvested from each group (see below). Two groups were set up for the aerobic or the anaerobic intense training sessions; these were supervised by the coach and his stuff; The groups were randomly selected as follows: X1 - Aerobic Group comprising 9 subjects, focused on endurance session: all participants in the group performed one supervised session of aerobic training, consisting of a run lasting 45 min, according to pre-established heart rate (65-75% of their maximal heart rate), covering a distance of ca. 6,780 m; X2 - anaerobic group comprising 9 subjects, focused on sprints, namely high intensity shortduration intermittent exercises; all participants in the group performed a supervised session of anaerobic training, consisting of a total run of 15/20 min, subdivided into eight sprints of maximal 40 seconds, with break intervals of 2 min between sprints, according to a pre-established heart rate (85% of their maximal heart rates). The total covered distance per sprint was 250 m.

For both groups, the time interval from blood samples harvested early in the morning (7 AM) to those harvested at the end of each training session was 4 hours (11 AM).

Sample preparation: Sample preparation has been described elsewhere.1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. The content of thiobarbituric acidreactive substances (TBARS) was determined in plasma, while the content of reduced glutathione, total glutathione, and oxidized glutathione in whole blood extracts. Samples were not frozen to avoid enhanced lipid auto-oxidation by butylhydroxytoluene, and also because reduced glutathione is rapidly oxidized at relatively low temperatures.1616 Child RB, Wilkinson DM, Fallowfield JL, Donnelly AE. Elevated serum antioxidant capacity and plasma malondialdehyde concentration in response to a simulated half-marathon run. Med Sci Sports Exerc. 1998; 30:1603-7.http://dx.doi.org/10.1097/00005768-199811000-00008
http://dx.doi.org/10.1097/00005768-19981...

TBARS assay in plasma

Determination of TBARS was used to assay endogenous lipid oxidation according to Ohkawa 1717 Ohkawa H. Assay for lipid peroxides in animal tissues by thiobarbituric acid reaction. Anal Biochem 1979; 95(2):351-8 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0003-2697(79)90738-3

and Bird and Draper1818 Bird RP, Draper AH. Comparative studies on different methods of malondyhaldehyde determination. Methods Enzymol. 1984; 105:299-305. , which were expressed as nmol TBARS/ml (ε535 = 153 mM-1 cm -1).

Enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants in blood

Superoxide Dismutase activity was measured at 550 nm according to the method of cytochrome-c reduction.1919 Flohé L, Ötting F. Superoxide dismutase assays. Methods Enzymol 1984; 105:93-104. Catalase activity was determined by measuring the decrease in a freshly prepared solution of hydrogen peroxide (10 mM) concentration at 240 nm.2020 Aebi H. Catalase in vitro. Methods Enzymol. 1984; 105:121-6. Glutathione Peroxidase was measured at 340 nm through the Glutathione/NADPH/ Glutathione Reductase system, by the dismutation of tert- -butylhydroperoxide.2121 Flohé L, Gunzler WA. Assays of glutathione peroxidase. Methods Enzymol. 1984; 105:114-21. Glutathione Reductase was measured at 340 nm through the oxidation rate of NADPH, in a reaction medium containing buffered DPTA (diethylenetriaminepentacetic acid) and 1 mM Oxidized Glutathione.2222 Carlberg I, Mannervik B. Purification and characterization of flavoenzyme glutathione reductase from rat liver. J Biol Chem. 1975; 250:5475-80. Glutathione S-Transferase was measured at 340 nm according to Habig,2323 Keen JH, Habit WH, Jacobi WB. Mechanism for several activities from glutathione S-transferase. J Biol Chem. 1976; 251:6183-8. using CDNB (1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene) as substrate and 0.15 M GSH concentration. All activities are expressed per milliliter of whole blood.

Glutathione assay

Reduced glutathione was measured according to Beutler,2424 Beutler E. Red Cell Metabolism: A Manual of Biochemical Methods. 2nd Ed. Grune and Stratton, New York, 1975. using Elmann's reagent (2-dithionitrobenzoic acid, DTNB). Briefly, acid extracts were obtained by the addition of trichloroacetic acid, followed by centrifugation. Supernatants from the acid extracts were added to DTNB in Na-PO4; the formation of thiolate anion was determined at 412 nm. TG was also measured at 412 nm according to the method of Tietze,2525 Tietze F. Enzymic methods for quantitative determination of nanogram amounts of total and oxidized glutathione: applications to mammalian blood and other tissues. Anal Biochem. 1969; 27 (3):502-22. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0003-2697(69)90064-5
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0003-2697(69)9...
and Oxidized Glutathione was calculated in equivalents of reduced glutathione.

Statistical analysis

Data analysis was descriptive: means and standard deviations were calculated for all measured variables, using SPSS (IBM SPSS Statistics 18) software. Both groups (aerobic and anaerobic training session) were checked for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk (if n < 50) and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (if n > 50) statistical tests. Depending on the normality of these data, the paired Student-t test (parametric data) was used. The minimal accepted level of significance was p < 0.05.

RESULTS

Plasma concentrations of TBARS showed no significant changes before or after the aerobic and anaerobic sessions, as shown in Table 1. Similarly, no statistical differences were found for the contents of different forms of glutathione before and after the anaerobic training session compared to the moment just before starting each training session (Table 1).

Table 1
Plasma levels of TBARS and whole blood levels of GSSG, GSH and TG in soccer players before and after aerobic and anaerobic training session

Neither were there any differences in the contentes of Oxidized Glutathione; however significant decreases in Total and Reduced Glutathione values measured in whole blood were obtained in samples after vs. before the aerobic training session, as shown in Table 1.

The erythrocytic activity of Catalase and Glutathione Reductase show no significant changes when compared between the two groups as shown in Table 2.

Table 2
Contents of erythrocytic antioxidant enzymes (CAT, SOD, GST, GR and GPx)

In the Aerobic Training Group, significant increases in Glutathione S-Transferase and Glutathione Peroxidase activities, and a significant decrease in Superoxide Dismutase activity were detected after vs before aerobic exercise.

In the Anaerobic Training Group, no diferences were found in the activity of Superoxide Dismutase and Glutathione S-Transferase, while a significant increase in Glutathione Peroxidase and a significant decrease in Catalase activity were observed as shown in Table 2.

DISCUSSION

Glutathione is an important endogenous protection system against cell damage caused by ROS. It is presente in high concentrations in mammalian cells, including humans, in its reduced form (~99%), together with much smaller amounts of the oxidized form (~1%).55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. This ubiquitous tripeptide is continuously restored in all cellular compartments, acting relatively rapidly against ROS formation, especially in blood, after aerobic or anaerobic training.1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. It should be noted that relatively small increases (2-3%) in the cellular content of Oxidized Glutathione can promote severe oxidative stress damage.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007.

In the present study Total Glutathione levels were significantly lower after the aerobic training session, similarly to findings in soccer players after a complete daily routine of combined aerobic and anaerobic exercises.1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. In contrast, Vider et al.4747 Vider J, Lehtmaa J, Kullisaar T, Vihalemm T, Zilmer K, Kairane C, et al. Acute immune response in respect to exercise-induced oxidative stress.

showed enhanced Total Glutathione levels after a treadmill performance in endurance athletes; Sahlin et al.4343 Sahlin K, Ekberg K, Cizinsky S. Changes in plasma hypoxanthine and free radical markers during exercise in man. Acta Physiol Scand 1991; 142(2):275-81. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1748-1716.1991.tb09157.x
http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1748-1716.19...
also found enhanced Total Glutathione levels after cycling performances in trained athletes compared to sedentary subjects; this may reflect such glutathione mobilization and synthesis. The duration of 8 and 4h of the study of Schwingel et al.1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. and the present study, respectively, were probably not sufficient to allow for the detection of either the hepatic mobilization or the use of glutathione in other tissues such as muscles, or the de novo synthesis in liver of this endogenous antioxidant.

Because ROS generation is enhanced during or after an aerobic exercise, a parallel increase in peroxidative damage to lipids would also be expected.99 Packer L. Oxidants, antioxidant nutrients and the athlete. J Sports Sci 1997; 15(3):353-63. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/026404197367362
http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/02640419736736...
Several studies indicate that such lipid oxidation byproducts (usually measured as TBARS or malondialdehyde levels) are increased after acute intensive exercise.3030 Ascensão A, Rebelo A, Oliveira E, Marques F, Pereira L, Magalhães J.

A previous study from our laboratory1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. showed elevated levels of TBARS levels in the plasma of soccer players after daily 8 hr. routine training sessions which combined aerobic and anaerobic types exercises in alternation. The discrepancy vis-à-vis our present study is probably attributable to the double duration of the previous training session. Such discrepancies had already been reported in other related studies measuring other oxidative stress parameters, which also comprised many diferente experimental designs, intensity, conditions of sample harvesting and type of exercise, among others.2626 Cubrilo D, Djordjevic D, Zivkovic V, Djuric D, Blagojevic D, Spasic M, et al.

In this context, Gravina et al.4040 Gravina L, Ruiz F, Lekue JA, Irazusta J, Gil SM. Metabolic impact of a soccer match on female players. J Sports Sci 2011; 29(12):1345-52. examining female soccer players showed that the three important antioxidant enzymes, namely Superoxide Dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase and Reductase, increased their activity when comparing pre- and post-match moments (18 hours apart).

In the present study Oxidized Glutathione levels showed no significant differences after aerobic or anaerobic training session. However, some other studies showed elevated lipoperoxidation markers, suggesting that both short-term and prolonged exercises (anaerobic, aerobic or severe chronic aerobic performances), favor the conversion of Reduced to Oxidized Glutathione.4242 Laaksonen DE, Atalay M, Niskanen L, Uusitupa M, Hänninen O, Sem CK.

investigated markers of oxidative stress in elite female soccer players in response to a 90-min game, and found that this exertion induced a significant acute increase in Oxidized Glutathione concomitant to a decrease in Reduced Glutathione contents.

as well as after a run lasting 2-5h.3939 Dufaux B, Heine O, Kothe A, Prinz U, Rost R. Blood glutathione status following distance running. Int Sports Med 1997; 18(2):89-93. Interestingly, after 3 days of recovery from ergometer cycling (65% of maximal VO2) lasting 90 min produced na elevation of Reduced Glutathione levels in blood.4545 Gohil K, Viguie C, Stanley WC, Brooks GA, Packer L . Blood glutathione oxidation during human exercise. J Appl Physiol 1988; 64(1):115-9. A similar result was found after swimming activity lasting for 1, 10 or 60 days.4646 Vani M, Reddy GP, Reddy GR, Thyagaraju K, Reddanna P. Glutathione S-transferase, superoxide dismutase, xanthine oxidase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and lipid peroxidation in the liver of exercise rats. Biochem Internat. 1990; 21(1):17-26.

Regarding the antioxidant enzymes, following the aerobic training session, we found no difference of Catalase activity, while Superoxide Dismutase activity decreased. However, after the anaerobic training session an inverse relation was observed, with Catalase activity significantly decreased, while Superoxide Dismutase activity remained unchanged. Related studies showed a variety of results after different sport practices: increased Catalase activity after aerobic exercise (40 min riding) of moderate intensity (Heart Rate 65-75% of maximum);4444 Jenkins R.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1097/JSM.0000000000...
another study reported increased Superoxide Dismutase and unaltered Catalase activity after an anaerobic session of strenuous jumping.2929 Ørtenbland N, Madsen K, Mogens SD. Antioxidant status and lipid peroxidation after short-term maximal exercise in trained and untrained humans. Am J Physiol 1997; 272(4):1258-63. A similar study on soccer young players also found a systemic oxidative stress after performing an intermittent high intensity exercise5151 Escobar M, Oliveira MWS, Behr GA, Zanotto-Filho A, Ilha L, Cunha GS, et al. Oxidative Stress in Young Football (Soccer) Players in Intermittent High Intensity Exercise Protocol. J Exerc Physiol. 2009;12(5):1-10. , in which SOD and CAT activity were increased, apparently to compensate the increased levels of lipid (MDA levels) and protein oxidation. Other similar study using a protocol of running test that resembles soccer activity, MDA levels were also enhanced in the early stage of recovery.5252 Costa CSC, Barbosa MA, Spineti J, Pedrosa CM, Pierucci APTR. Oxidative Stress Biomarkers Response to Exercise in Brazilian Junior Soccer Players. Food Nutr Sci. 2011;2(5):5753. http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ fns.2011.25057
http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ fns.2011.2505...

We found increased Glutathione S-Transferase activity after the aerobic training, but no difference after the anaerobic test. But after complete and combined daily sessions in soccer players Glutathione S-Transferase activity was decreased.1313 Schwingel A, Wilhelm Filho D, Torres MA, Petroski EL. Exercise session promotes antioxidant changes in Brazilian soccer players. Biol Sport. 2006; 23(3):255-65. Glutathione S-Transferase is an importante dual detoxification enzyme,55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. facilitating the excretion of compounds derived from the xenobiotic biotransformation catalyzed by the superfamily of CYP450, and also detoxifying hydroperoxides generated endogenously in the process of lipid oxidation.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. As a consequence, an increase in Glutathione S-Transferase activity is expected to occur during and after intense aerobic exercise. Nevertheless, Glutathione S-Transferase continuously uses Reduced Glutathione as a cofactor, and considering that its contente is decreased after aerobic exercise, as found in our study, a decrease in the transferase activity is also expected to occur after prolonged periods of exercise, if no induction of this enzyme and no recovery of Reduced Glutathione occurs. Indeed, laboratory animals exhibited enhanced and persistent Glutathione S-Transferase as well as SOD activity during 60 days of continuous exercise, while Catalase and Glutathione Reductase activity remained unaltered together with persistent augmented malondialdehyde levels, thereby revealing the importance and ability of Glutathione S-Transferase to detoxify hydroperoxides.4646 Vani M, Reddy GP, Reddy GR, Thyagaraju K, Reddanna P. Glutathione S-transferase, superoxide dismutase, xanthine oxidase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and lipid peroxidation in the liver of exercise rats. Biochem Internat. 1990; 21(1):17-26.

The recovery of oxidized glutathione back to reduced glutathione is accomplished by Glutathione Reductase; this is an essential step to maintain a cell protection system related to the so-called glutathione cycle. Therefore, an increase in Glutathione Reductase activity would be expected after chronic exercise of long duration. Accordingly, some studies have reported significant increases in Glutathione Reductase (and also in GPx) after exhaustive exercise1515 Venditti P, Di Meo S. Effect of training on antioxidant capacity, tissue damage, and endurance of adult male rats. Int J Sports Med 1997; 18(7):497-502. http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-2007-972671
http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-2007-972671...
or at the end of the competitive season,3434 Silva JR, Rebelo A, Marques F, Pereira L, Seabra A, Ascensão A, et al. Biochemical impact of soccer: an analysis of hormonal, muscle damage, and redox markers during the season. Appl Physiol Nutr Metab. 2014; 39(4):432-8.http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/apnm-2013-0180
http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/apnm-2013-0180...
while at the pre-season and middle of the competitive season4444 Jenkins R. Free radical chemistry relationship to exercise. Sports Med 1988; 5(3):156-70.Glutathione Reductase activity was decreased. In the present study, Glutathione Reductase showed no significant differences between both types of training, while Jenkins4444 Jenkins R. Free radical chemistry relationship to exercise. Sports Med 1988; 5(3):156-70. showed decreased activity after exercise. Again, the different responses obtained are probably attributable to the duration, pre-training and type of exercise among other aspects already mentioned above.1515 Venditti P, Di Meo S. Effect of training on antioxidant capacity, tissue damage, and endurance of adult male rats. Int J Sports Med 1997; 18(7):497-502. http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-2007-972671
http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-2007-972671...

We detected increased Glutathione Peroxidase after aerobic and anaerobic sessions. These finding are consistent with other related studies.1515 Venditti P, Di Meo S. Effect of training on antioxidant capacity, tissue damage, and endurance of adult male rats. Int J Sports Med 1997; 18(7):497-502. http://dx.doi.org/10.1055/s-2007-972671

As with Glutathione S-Transferase, the Glutathione Peroxidase is also relevant to detoxification of hydroperoxides, also using Reduced Glutathione as a cofactor, therefore the depletion of this important tripeptide affects the responses of both antioxidant enzymes.55 Halliwell B, Gutteridge JMC. Free Radicals in Biology and Medicine, 4th ed, Clarendon Press, Oxford, 2007. As found for Glutathione Reductase activity, Glutathione Peroxidase was upregulated only at the end of the competitive season, while it was downregulated at the pre-season and middle of the competitive season.3434 Silva JR, Rebelo A, Marques F, Pereira L, Seabra A, Ascensão A, et al. Biochemical impact of soccer: an analysis of hormonal, muscle damage, and redox markers during the season. Appl Physiol Nutr Metab. 2014; 39(4):432-8.http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/apnm-2013-0180
http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/apnm-2013-0180...

As a conclusion, our results provide evidence of a more pronounced systemic oxidative stress after the aerobic training session compared to the anaerobic training session in young soccer players. The different types of exercises and sport practice involve different degrees of anaerobic and aerobic metabolism. Therefore, different qualitative as well as quantitative responses regarding oxidative stress and antioxidante adaptations should be expected, which may explain the apparent conflicting reports available in the related literature.

PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

During a seasonal training period soccer players as well as other athletes, are facing different physical, physiological and biochemical challenges that can jeopardize the concerted antioxidant capacity of diferente tissues, leading to a systemic oxidative stress condition. As a perspective, it is here suggested that the training sessions, irrespective of being predominantly aerobic or anaerobic, together with the constitutive antioxidant responses to different types of exercise, should be accompanied by an appropriate intake of dietary and/or supplemented nutritional antioxidants, according to several reports available in the literature.

CONCLUSION

The results provide evidence of a more pronounced systemic oxidative stress after the aerobic compared to the anaerobic training session in young soccer players.
