[Adaptation to hypoxia and hyperoxia improves physical endurance: the role of reactive oxygen species and redox-signaling].

We have conducted theoretical foundation, experimental analysis and a pilot study of a new method of adaptation to hypoxia and hyperoxia in the prevention of hypoxic and stress-induced disorders and improving the body's tolerance to physical stress. It has been shown in the experimental part that a combination of physical exercise with adaptation to hypoxia-hyperoxia significantly increased tolerance to acute physical load (APL) and its active phase. Analysis of lipid peroxidation processes, antioxidant enzymes and HSPs showed that short-term training for physical exercise by itself compensates the stressor, but not the hypoxic component of the APL, the combination of training with adaptation to hypoxia-hyperoxia completely normalizes the stressor and hypoxic components of APL.

[Reactive oxygen species and redox-signaling during adaptation to changes of oxygen level].

Review of last 15 years literature and own experimental data on role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox signalization in induction of cell protective systems and development of adaptive resistance. Modem ideas of ROS involvement in redox signalization, induction of transcription factors and protective proteins, ways of cell response to ROS, essential limitations of exogenic antioxidants are shown. Concept of ROS involvement in non-specific component of increase resistance is introduced.
