去卵巢骨质疏松症大鼠模型骨密度的变化

观察3月龄SD雌鼠切除双侧卵巢29周内模型组和雌二醇组动物第三腰椎及股骨骨密度的变化,同时与假手术组比较。结果表明,SD雌性大鼠切除卵巢9周股骨骨密度明显低于假手术组(P<001),13周后腰椎骨骨密度也有显著差异(P<001),29周内模型稳定。皮下注射苯甲酸雌二醇40μgkg×2次周,在12周能够明显提高切卵巢SD大鼠的股骨骨密度并使其接近正常,16周后第三腰椎的骨密度也能够明显提高。切卵巢骨质疏松症大鼠模型治疗性给药需要大约9～13周左右模型才能成功,切除卵巢后29周内模型仍然稳定。     

Effects of ovariectomy on intramuscular energy metabolism in young rats: how does sports-related-amenorrhea affect muscles of young female athletes?

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of ovariectomy on intramuscular energy metabolism in young rats. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats (7 weeks old) were used. Twelve of them underwent ovariectomy (OVX), and the others were sham-operated on. Seven OVX rats were examined 1-week after surgery (OVX-1 group), and the other five, 4 weeks after surgery (OVX-4 group). The gastrocnemius-plantaris-soleus (GPS) muscles group was subjected to the following measurements, and the data were compared with those of the sham group (Sham-1: n = 7, or Sham-4 group: n = 5). From the 31P-MR spectra of the GPS muscles group at rest and during electric stimulation, the muscular oxidative capacity was measured. Maximum tension and wet weight of the whole GPS muscles group were also measured. Body weight in the OVX-4 group was significantly (p < 0.01) larger than that in the Sham-4 group. The weights of the whole GPS muscles group in the Sham-1, Sham-4, OVX-1 and OVX-4 groups were 1.17, 1.51, 1.25 and 1.71 (g), respectively. The muscle weight in the OVX group tended to be greater than that in the Sham group (p < 0.10). The maximum tension and oxidative capacity did not differ significantly among the groups. These data indicated that in young rats, ovariectomy induced an increase in body and muscle weight, but did not affect the maximum tension nor oxidative capacity.     

Training and detraining effects of the resistance vs. endurance program on body composition, body size, and physical performance in young men

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the body composition, body size, muscle strength, and VO2max after 24 weeks of resistance or endurance training and detraining in young men. Thirty healthy college-aged men (20.4 ± 1.36 years) participated in the study. Subjects were assigned to resistance training group (RTG, n = 10), endurance training group (ETG, n = 10), and control group (CG, n = 10). The training program consisted of running or weight-resistance exercise for 3 sessions per week under supervision. VO2max, upper and lower body strength (UBS, LBS), body fat, lean body mass, and body circumference were measured at baseline and after training and detraining. After the training period, the exercise groups demonstrated significant increases in VO2max and LBS (p < 0.05). The UBS, lean mass (LM), and body size of arm and calf were significantly greater in the RTG than in the other 2 groups (p<0.05). In addition, the strength and LM of the RTG were still greater than the baseline values after 24 weeks of detraining (p < 0.05). The conclusions of this study are (a) that endurance or resistance training alone led to training-specific improvements in physical performance, body composition, and body size of the arms for the young men examined and (b) that the RTG maintained the gains in strength and LM for more prolonged periods after training ceased than the endurance training group.     

强度不同的间歇跑台训练对生长期大鼠骨代谢及相关激素的影响

目的:探讨强度不同的间歇跑台训练对生长期大鼠骨代谢的影响,以期为青少年训练强度的制定提供理论支持。方法:选取4周龄雄性wistar大鼠70只,根据体重随机搭配分成7组(n=10):即对照组和运动组。运动组按照大鼠摄氧量分为:65%组,70%组,75%组,80%组,85%组和90%组。跑台训练9周,每周训练6 d,每组训练分3次,每次不低于10 min,中间间隔30 min。最后一次运动后24 h,取股骨和血进行骨密度(BMD)、骨量(BMC)和血清中的碱性磷酸酶(AKP),抗酒石酸酸性磷酸酶(Str-ACP)的测定。结果:①70%组股骨的BMD(0.1393±0.0031)、BMC(0.4525±0.0335)显著高于对照组(BMD:0.1200±0.0095,BMC:0.3238±0.0485)和其他各运动组(65%组BMD:0.1339±0.0062、BMC:0.4058±0.0492,75%组BMD:0.1296±0.0015、BMC:0.3869±0.0254,80%组BMD:0.1223±0.0082、BMC:0.3454±0.0483,85%组BMD:0.1250±0.0044、BMC:0.3731±0.0381,90%组BMD:0.1171±0.0047、BMC:0.3051±0.0286)(P<0.05),90%组的BMD、BMC低于对照组但未达到显著水平,其他各运动组均高于对照组;②各运动组血清AKP均显著高于对照组,其中65%组(41.015±2.114)、70%组(46.035±2.611)、75%组(43.834±3.155)、80%组(38.043±4.073)血清AKP非常显著高于对照组(26.875±1.188)(P<0.01),70%组和75%组血清AKP显著高于80%组、85%组、90%组(P<0.05),同时70%组血清AKP显著高于65%组(P<0.05),这说明70%VO2max的训练强度成骨细胞最活跃。各运动组血清StrACP均显著高于对照组,随着训练强度的增加,血清StrACP水平呈上升趋势,80%组(22.430±1.591)、85%组(23.990±1.870)、90%组(28.009±1.839)血清StrACP显著高于65%组(18.503±2.429)、70%组(16.447±2.120)和75%组(17.769±1.642)(P<0.05),90%组血清StrACP均显著高于80%组和85%组(P<0.05)。结论:70%VO2max的中等强度间歇跑台训练使生长期大鼠骨量、骨密度增加最明显。     

Lower extremity muscle size and strength and aerobic capacity decrease with caloric restriction but not with exercise-induced weight loss.

Caloric restriction (CR) results in fat loss; however, it may also result in loss of muscle and thereby reduce strength and aerobic capacity (VO2 max). These effects may not occur with exercise-induced weight loss (EX) because of the anabolic effects of exercise on heart and skeletal muscle. We tested the hypothesis that CR reduces muscle size and strength and VO2 max, whereas EX preserves or improves these parameters. Healthy 50- to 60-yr-old men and women (body mass index of 23.5-29.9 kg/m2) were studied before and after 12 mo of weight loss by CR (n = 18) or EX (n = 16). Lean mass was assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, thigh muscle volume by MRI, isometric and isokinetic knee flexor strength by dynamometry, and treadmill VO2 max by indirect calorimetry. Both interventions caused significant decreases in body weight (CR: -10.7 +/- 1.4%, EX: -9.5 +/- 1.5%) and lean mass (CR: -3.5 +/- 0.7%, EX: -2.2 +/- 0.8%), with no significant differences between groups. Significant decreases in thigh muscle volume (-6.9 +/- 0.8%) and composite knee flexion strength (-7.2 +/- 3%) occurred in the CR group only. Absolute VO2 max decreased significantly in the CR group (-6.8 +/- 2.3%), whereas the EX group had significant increases in both absolute (+15.5 +/- 2.4%) and relative (+28.3 +/- 3.0%) VO2 max. These data provide evidence that muscle mass and absolute physical work capacity decrease in response to 12 mo of CR but not in response to a similar weight loss induced by exercise. These findings suggest that, during EX, the body adapts to maintain or even enhance physical performance capacity.     

The hormonal response of older men to sub-maximum aerobic exercise: the effect of training and detraining

The hormonal response of 32 older men (70-80years) to a bout of sub-maximum aerobic exercise was examined before, after 16weeks of resistance or aerobic training and again after 4weeks of detraining. Blood samples were obtained at rest and immediately post sub-maximum exercise (30min @ 70% VO(2) max) to determine the concentrations of growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), testosterone (Test), sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and the calculation of free testosterone (FT). Both training groups had significant increases in leg strength and VO(2) max after 16weeks training but leg strength and VO(2) max returned to pre-training levels in the aerobic training and resistance training groups, respectively. During the 20week study there was no change in resting concentrations of any hormones among the three groups. There was no increase in GH, IGF-1 or SHBG immediately post sub-maximum exercise in any of the groups before training, after 16weeks training or after 4weeks detraining. Testosterone and FT increased immediately post sub-maximum exercise within all groups before training, after 16weeks training and after 4weeks detraining with the increase in Test and FT higher after 16weeks of resistance training compared to before training and after 4weeks detraining within the resistance training group. The increased responsiveness of Test and FT after 16weeks of resistance training was lost after 4weeks of detraining. Our results indicate that some physiological and hormonal adaptations gained after 16weeks training are lost after only 4weeks detraining.     

Effect of training and detraining on skeletal muscle glucose transporter (GLUT4) content in rats.

The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of treadmill exercise training and detraining on the skeletal muscle fiber type specific expression of the insulin-regulated glucose transporter protein (GLUT4) in rats. GLUT4 protein content was determined by Western and dot-blot analysis, using a polyclonal antibody raised against the carboxy-terminal peptide. Rats were sacrificed 24 h after the last training session. There were no significant changes in muscle GLUT4 after 1 day or 1 week of training. Six weeks of training increased GLUT4 protein content 1.4- to 1.7-fold (p < 0.05) over controls in the soleus and red vastus lateralis, whereas no significant change was evident in the white vastus lateralis muscle. GLUT4 protein content in both soleus and red vastus lateralis muscle returned to near control values after 7 days of detraining. Similar to GLUT4, citrate synthase activity showed no change after 1 day or 1 week of training, increased 1.8-fold over controls after 6 weeks of training, but returned to control values after 7 days detraining. These findings demonstrate that muscle GLUT4 protein is increased in rats with as little as 6 weeks of treadmill exercise training but that the adaptation is lost within 1 week of detraining. It is suggested that expression of the GLUT4 protein is coordinated with the well-documented adaptations in oxidative enzyme activity with endurance training and detraining.     

Effect of Group vs. Single Housing on Phenotypic Variance in C57BL/6J Mice

Objective: To determine if group housing affects the variance of body composition parameters in a highly inbred mouse strain. Research Methods and Procedures: Thirty 3‐week‐old male C57BL/6J mice were obtained from the Jackson Laboratory. Fifteen mice were housed individually, and 15 mice were housed in groups of 5/cage. Animals were fed ad libitum and maintained in the same room under a 12:12‐hour light/dark photoperiod at 22 °C for 9 weeks. Animals were killed, and fat mass, soft‐lean tissue mass, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone mineral content (BMC) were determined by DXA. At necropsy, weights of the paired epididymal fat pads, paired retroperitoneal fat pads, right inguinal fat pad, liver, kidneys, paired testes, and seminal vesicles were obtained. Results: Relative to mice housed singly, group‐housed mice showed significantly greater variance in percentage of body fat, testes weight, and BMC. Group‐housed mice tended to show greater variance in liver weights and BMD. Mice housed singly were smaller, had less soft‐lean tissue mass and BMC, and lower BMD when compared with group‐housed mice. Discussion: These results suggest that with respect to body composition parameters, mice housed singly are more similar to one another than are group‐housed mice, most likely because of a reduction in environmental (predominately behavioral/social) effects. Thus, mice housed singly may be more representative of genotypic effects on body composition than group‐housed mice. Whether other inbred strains of mice show similar responses to housing condition is unknown.
