Abstract EN
Exercise training induces adaptations in mitochondrial metabolism, dynamics, and oxidative protection.
Omega-3 fatty acids change membrane lipid composition and modulate mitochondrial function.
The aim was to investigate the effect of 8-week training and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation (1.14 g/day) on the mitochondria dynamics and antioxidant status in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from sportsmen.
Subjects were assigned to an intervention ( N = 9 ) or placebo groups ( N = 7 ) in a randomized double-blind trial.
Nutritional intervention significantly increased the DHA content in erythrocyte membranes from the experimental group.
No significant differences were reported in terms of circulating PBMCs, Mn-superoxide dismutase protein levels, and their capability to produce reactive oxygen species.
The proteins related to mitochondrial dynamics were, in general, increased after an 8-week training and this increase was enhanced by DHA supplementation.
The content in mitofusins Mtf-1 and Mtf-2, optic atrophy protein-1 (Opa-1), and mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) were significantly higher in the DHA-supplemented group after intervention.
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX-IV) activity and uncoupling proteins UCP-2 and UCP-3 protein levels were increased after training, with higher UCP-3 levels in the supplemented group.
In conclusion, training induced mitochondrial adaptations which may contribute to improved mitochondrial function.
This mitochondrial response was modulated by DHA supplementation.
