Steven L. Britton and Lauren Gerard Koch Functional Genomics Laboratory Medical College of Ohio Toledo, Ohio Genetic Models of Low and High Aerobic Capacity
Nature 291:381, 1981 From Alberts, et al, Molecular Biology of the Cell
Aerobic Capacity Defines Much Of Our Biological Existence Photosynthesis Created Atmospheric Oxygen (increased redox potential more free energy) Created a Permissive Environment for Evolution of Complex Aerobic Pathways Current Aerobic Capacity -3.5 Billion Years Evolutionary Time
Aerobic Capacity Has An Ubiquitous Influence (axiomatic from our evolutionary history) Cancer Aerobic Capacity Diabetes Mellitus Heart Failure Aging
Sedentary, Untrained Response to Training Assumption Current Aerobic = Intrinsic + Adaptational Phenotype
Model One: Artificial Selection for Intrinsic Aerobic Endurance Treadmill Running Capacity

Likely Determinant Phenotype HCR are higher than LCR for: 1. Isolated Cardiac Output (John Barbato). 2. Cardiac left ventricular myosin ATPase activity (John Barbato). 3. Cardiac left ventricular Na+/K+ ATPase (Joseph Shapiro). 4. Stress Proteins (HSP 70 inducible) in heart and skeletal muscle (Ed Sanchez and Todd Brickman).
Other Selectivley-Bred Models in Development 1. Adaptational response to endurance training 2. Sensorimotor capacity (coordination) Long-term, we want to make these models available for others to study. [The NIH has provided resources to make the Intrinsic Aerobic Rats available for small-scale studies].
We have collaborations with 10 institutions, but no formal, systematic plans for studying these models. Pennington Bouchard UCSD Wagner U Kansas Gonzales Laval (Can.) St. Amand Yale Neuffer U. Norway U. Wisloff T. Kurtz UCSF T. Clausen Copenhagen Mayo E. Ritman USDA L. Klevay
