Resumo

Background and ObjectivePhototherapy plus dynamic exercise can enhance physical performance and improve health. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) associated with high intensity resistance training (HIT) on cardiac autonomic and muscle metabolic responses in rats. Study Design/Materials and MethodsForty Wistar rats were randomized into 4 groups: sedentary control (CG), HIT, LLLT and HIT+LLLT. HIT was performed 3 times/week for 8 weeks with loads attached to the tail of the animal. The load was gradually increased by 10% of body mass until reaching a maximal overload. For LLLT, irradiation parameters applied to the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle were as follows: infrared laser (780nm), power of 15mW for 10 seconds, leading to an irradiance of 37.5mW/cm(2), energy of 0.15J per point and fluency of 3.8J/cm(2). Blood lactate (BL), matrix metalloproteinase gelatinase A (MMP-2) gene expression and heart rate variability (HRV) indices were performed. ResultsBL significantly increased after 8-weeks for HIT, LLLT and HIT+LLLT groups. However, peak lactate when normalized by maximal load was significantly reduced for both HIT and HIT+LLLT groups (P<0.05). MMP-2 in the active form was significantly increased after HIT, LLLT and HIT+LLLT compared tom the CG (P<0.05). There was a significant reduction in low frequency {[}LF (ms(2))] and increase in high frequency {[}HF (un)] and HF (ms(2))] for the HIT, LLLT and HIT+LLLT groups compared with the CG (P<0.05). However, the LF/HF ratio was further reduced in the LLLT and HIT+LLLT groups compared to the CG and HIT group (P<0.05). ConclusionThese results provide evidence for the positive benefits of LLLT and HIT with respect to enhanced muscle metabolic and cardiac autonomic function in Wistar rats. Lasers Surg.
