After exercise training, improvement in cognitive function is associated with high parasympathetic nervous activity. However, the relationship between cardiac autonomic nervous activity and cognitive function after acute exercise may differ from that after chronic exercise, because parasympathetic nervous activity decreases with acute exercise. Here, we examined the relationship between parasympathetic nervous activity and cognitive function after acute exercise. Twelve male participants performed cognitive tasks in exercise and non-exercise conditions, with a randomized crossover design. Participants in the exercise condition ran on a treadmill for 10 min, with a running speed corresponding to a rate of perceived exertion (RPE) of 10–12 in each subject. Cognitive tasks were performed before and after both conditions. Heart rate variability during cognitive tasks was measured to evaluate autonomic nervous system activity. In the exercise condition, RPE was 11.1 ± 0.2 (mean ± SE) immediately after exercise. Exercise at RPE 10–12 improved reaction times in Go trials (from 687.8 ± 55.2 to 568.2 ± 45.9 ms, P < 0.05). In the non-exercise condition, cognitive performance remained stable throughout the experiment. In addition, parasympathetic nervous activity (high-frequency component of heart rate variability) remained low after exercise compared with before exercise (from 586.4 ± 122.5 to 372.8 ± 92.9 ms2, P < 0.05). In contrast, parasympathetic nervous activity increased in the non-exercise condition (from 516.6 ± 94.9 ms2 to 642.5 ± 85.6 ms2, P < 0.05). The present results suggest that improvement in cognitive function after acute exercise may be related to reduced parasympathetic nervous activity.

The renal biopsy tissue from a 9-month-old, male Pyrenean Mountain dog with renal disorder and severe proteinuria was examined. Ultrastructural examination revealed multilaminar splitting and fragmentation of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and diffuse podocyte foot process effacement. Immunofluorescent staining for α (IV) chains revealed presence of α5 (IV) and complete absence of α3 (IV) and α4 (IV) chains in the GBM. Immunohistochemistry also revealed decreased and altered expression of nephrin and podocin in the glomeruli compared with normal canine glomeruli. These results suggested that the glomerular disease of the present case might be consistent with canine hereditary nephropathy resembling human Alport syndrome caused by genetic defect of type IV collagen, and indicated possible contribution of podocyte injury to severe proteinuria in this case.
