MAXIMAL INCREMENTAL CYCLE TEST IN
YOUNG ICE HOCKEY PLAYERS: RELATION
TO WORK PERFORMED",
abstract="The aim of this study was to assess the plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations as well  as whole blood β2-adrenoceptor gene (ADRB2) expression in young ice hockey players before and immediately  after exercise in relation to performed work. Nineteen Youth National Team ice hockey players were subjected  to the maximal incremental cycloergometer exercise. The test was done in the pre-competitive phase of training.  Among many parameters the plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations and ADRB2 gene expression  in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were determined before and after exercise. The average performed  work was 3261.3 ± 558.3 J · kg-1 and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) for all players was 53.85 ± 3.91  mL · kg-1 min-1. The geometric mean of the ADRB2 gene expression was statistically significantly different before  and after exercise (P ≤ 0.05), while adrenaline and noradrenaline levels in plasma significantly increased after  exercise. In the analysed group of athletes we found that initial level of plasma noradrenaline correlated with  the performed work (r = - 0.55, P < 0.014) and normalized ADRB2 expression before the exercise correlated  with the work done by them (r = 0.48, P<0.039). However, no statistically significant correlations were found  between the plasma adrenaline or noradrenaline concentrations and ADRB2 gene expression in peripheral blood  of the players. The performed work in the maximal incremental exercise test of regularly training young ice hockey  players depends on the initial levels of noradrenaline in plasma and ADRB2 mRNA in PBMC.",
