“…The results also showed that the blood pressure is normal in WKY rats while hypertension occurs in SHR. After 6-week load-free swimming, the blood pressure decreased significantly in SHR, which was consistent with other studies (10,11). Recent research found that aerobic physical activity may alter the aortic wall remodeling to adapt the artery to a hyperkinetic blood flow resulting in alterations of the extracellular matrix modulation and vascular resistance (4).…”

“…Moreover, the SBP of untrained rats presented a significant elevation (SHR-C; Δ 13.5 mmHg − 1 ) at the end of the experimental period (Table 1). This response is in accordance with several studies, where different exercise regimens and intensities are shown to reduce SBP and improve cardiovascular fitness [48,49,[56][57][58], also contributing to interrupt pathological hypertrophy in SHR rats [59]. Besides LVH, other pathologic parameters such as collagen and wallto-lumen ratio were also shown to be reduced in hypertensive rats after treadmill training [60].…”

“…Several investigators have reported either a significant increase in BP, or a trend towards it, following treadmill running, swimming or voluntary wheel running [17,24,49], while others did not find any significant differences [10,42]. These differences between studies may be related to several factors including differences in training intensity, duration, mode [47], stress [28] and environment [52]. The mechanism behind the increase in BP in exercised rats is not known.…”
