Abstract

Objective: This study aims to determine the protective cardiovascular effect of aerobic exercise training by measuring cluster of differentiation 146 (CD146), circulating endothelial cell (CEC), and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in adults.

Methods: This study was an experimental pre-post-test without a control group. Forty-five participants were divided into three groups based on aerobic exercise training intensity: low, moderate, and high. Whole blood samples were measured for HDL-C levels. In addition, CEC was isolated from Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) samples, then identified by CD146 marker using flow cytometry.

Results: CEC percentage and HDL-C increase after aerobic exercise training. There was a significant difference in CEC percentage between the intensity groups. However, there was no difference in HDL-C levels.

Conclusion: Aerobic exercise training can protect cardiovascular health by stimulating CEC mobilization, identified by CD146. In addition, an HDL-C level increase also contributes to cardiovascular protection by decreasing inflammation levels, inhibiting low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol oxidation, improving endothelial regeneration capabilities, and lowering blood glucose.
