In this study, we set out to investigate the impact of chronic exercise training on pro-inflammatory cytokines and markers of endothelial damage. Methods and results: We measured tumor necrosis factor a (TNFalpha), its soluble TNF-receptors 1 and 2, interleukin 6 (IL-6), soluble e-selectin, soluble intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM) and sCD14 in 18 patients with CHF and 9 age-matched controls in a randomized cross-over study of 8 weeks of exercise training (5 days/week, submaximal bicycle ergometer training, 30 min/day; calisthenics 9 min/day) versus 8 weeks of rest. At baseline, patients had a lower peak Vo(2) (p=0.009) and a trend for higher levels of e-selectin (p=0.08) and sCD14 (p=0.06), in addition to significantly elevated levels of sICAM (p=0.02), TNFalpha (p=0.02) and TNF-R2 (p=0.002); TNF-R1 and IL-6 were not elevated. Although exercise training was effective and led to an increase in peak Vo(2) in CHF (p<0.003), there was no activation of any of the above variables observed, neither in patients nor controls. Conclusions: Chronic heart failure is associated with increased levels of TNFalpha and markers of endothelial damage. Whereas acute bouts of exercise have been reported to lead to an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines and markers of endothelial damage, these effects are not seen when exercise is performed chronically.
