Abstract
Exercise increases the pain threshold in healthy people. However, the pain threshold modulation effect of exercise and hawthorn is unclear because of its potential benefits in people with persistent pain, including those with Alzheimer's disease. Accordingly, after the induction of Alzheimer's disease by trimethyl chloride, male rats with Alzheimer's disease were subjected to a 12-week training regimen consisting of resistance training, swimming endurance exercises, and combined exercises. In addition, hawthorn extract was orally administered to the rats. Then, their pain threshold was evaluated using three Tail-flick, Hot-plate, and Formalin tests. Our results showed that Alzheimer's decreased the pain threshold in all three behavioral tests. Combined exercise with hawthorn consumption had the most statistically significant effect on Alzheimer's male rats' pain threshold in all three experiments. A combination of swimming endurance and resistance exercises with hawthorn consumption may modulate hyperalgesia in Alzheimer's rats. Future studies need to determine the effects of these factors on the treatment and/or management of painful conditions.

Abstract
Introduction: Functional tests and training regimens intensity-controlled by an individual are used in sport practice, clinical rehabilitation, and space medicine. The model of voluntary wheel running in rats can be used to explore molecular mechanisms of such training regimens in humans. Respiratory and locomotor muscles demonstrate diverse adaptations to treadmill exercise, but the effects of voluntary exercise training on these muscle types have not been compared yet. Therefore, this work aimed at the effects of voluntary ET on rat triceps brachii and diaphragm muscles with special attention to reactive oxygen species, which regulate muscle plasticity during exercise.Methods: Male Wistar rats were distributed into exercise trained (ET) and sedentary (Sed) groups. ET group had free access to running wheels, running activity was continuously recorded and analyzed using the original hardware/software complex. After 8 weeks, muscle protein contents were studied using Western blotting.Results: ET rats had increased heart ventricular weights but decreased visceral/epididymal fat weights and blood triglyceride level compared to Sed. The training did not change corticosterone, testosterone, and thyroid hormone levels, but decreased TBARS content in the blood. ET rats demonstrated higher contents of OXPHOS complexes in the triceps brachii muscle, but not in the diaphragm. The content of SOD2 increased, and the contents of NOX2 and SOD3 decreased in the triceps brachii muscle of ET rats, while there were no such changes in the diaphragm.Conclusion: Voluntary wheel running in rats is intensive enough to govern specific adaptations of muscle fibers in locomotor, but not respiratory muscle.

Abstract
Abstract
Energy drinks (EDs) contain caffeine and other active ingredients which affect cardiovascular system. The aims of this study were to examine direct effects of Red Bull (RB) on cardiodynamics and oxidative stress in isolated hearts of rats. The rats were divided into four groups: untrained rats who never consumed ED (dEDUT); untrained rats who consumed ED 5 days a week during 4 weeks (ch+dED-UT); rats trained 5 times a week for 4 weeks, but did not consume ED (dED-T); rats trained and consumed ED 5 times a week for 4 weeks (ch+dED-T). After sacrificing, hearts were isolated and perfused according to Langendorff technique. Through the isolated heart of all rats in each group, RB was administered. The parameters of cardiac function were recorded, and the levels of prooxidants were measured in the coronary effluent during coronary autoregulation. Rats in ch+dED-UT group had significantly lower rates of myocardial contraction and relaxation compared to rats in dED-UT group. The same effect was recorded in the dED-T group compared to dED-UT group. The levels of hydrogen peroxide were significantly higher in trained rats. Rats in ch+dED-T group also had significantly higher levels of superoxide anion radical and index of lipid peroxidation, as well as lower levels of nitrites when compared to ch+dED-UT group, while opposite effect was recorded in rats in dED-T group compared to dEDUT group. The RB could have a potentially negative inotropic effect in chronic consumers. Prooxidative effect of RB was most pronounced in trained chronic consumers.

Abstract
Abstract
According to the hormesis theory, the responses of biological systems to stressors in exercise training may be explained by a U-shaped curve with inactivity and overtraining as the two endpoints. Both of these endpoints decrease physiological functions. Markers of oxidative stress may be important parameters for biological monitoring of athletes. Numerous studies have shown that acute exercise has the potential to induce oxidative stress, but regular exposure to an increased level of prooxidants leads to upregulation of the endogenous antioxidative defence system (ADS) of an athlete. Studies that explored the redox state in athletes during the competitive season showed that the antioxidative status changes depending on the training load and training phase. During the training season, a state of fatigue known as overtraining may occur, which results from an excessive training load. Oxidative stress has been suggested as one of the causes of overtraining syndrome. Based on the existing studies, it can be said that a connection exists, but whether oxidative stress is a cause or a consequence of overtraining is yet to be clarified. Furthermore, detraining (training reduction or cessation) leads to a partial or complete loss of training-induced anatomical, physiological and performance adaptations; therefore, it seems reasonable to assume that changes in ADS are also reversible.
