Rats fed a high-fat diet display blunted insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle glucose uptake. It is not clear whether this is due solely to a defect in glucose transport, or if glucose delivery and phosphorylation are also impaired. To determine this, rats were fed standard chow (control rats) or a high-fat diet (HF rats) for 4 wk. Experiments were then performed on conscious rats under basal conditions or during hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamps. Rats received primed constant infusions of 3-O-methyl-[(3)H]glucose (3-O-MG) and [1-(14)C]mannitol. Total muscle glucose concentration and the steady-state ratio of intracellular to extracellular 3-O-MG concentration [which distributes based on the transsarcolemmal glucose gradient (TSGG)] were used to calculate glucose concentrations at the inner and outer sarcolemmal surfaces ([G](im) and [G](om), respectively) in soleus. Total muscle glucose was also measured in two fast-twitch muscles. Muscle glucose uptake was markedly decreased in HF rats. In control rats, hyperinsulinemia resulted in a decrease in soleus TSGG compared with basal, due to increased [G](im). In HF rats during hyperinsulinemia, [G](im) also exceeded zero. Hyperinsulinemia also decreased muscle glucose in HF rats, implicating impaired glucose delivery. In conclusion, defects in extracellular and intracellular components of muscle glucose uptake are of major functional significance in this model of insulin resistance. 相似文献

High-fat (HF) diets induce insulin resistance and alter lipid metabolism, although controversy exists regarding the impact of saturated vs. polyunsaturated fats. Adiponectin (Ad) stimulates fatty acid (FA) oxidation and improves insulin sensitivity in humans and rodents, due in part to the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and subsequent deactivation of acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACC). In genetically obese, diabetic mice, this acute stimulatory effect on AMPK in muscle is lost. The ability of a HF diet to induce skeletal muscle Ad resistance has not been examined. The purpose of this study was to determine whether Ad's effects on FA oxidation and AMPK/ACC would be reduced following different HF diets, and if this coincided with the development of impaired maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Rats were fed a control (10% kcal fat, CON), high unsaturated fat (60% kcal safflower oil, SAFF), or high saturated fat diet (60% kcal lard, LARD) for 4 wk. Following the dietary intervention, glucose transport, lipid metabolism, and AMPK/ACC phosphorylation were measured in the presence and absence of globular Ad (gAd, 2.5 microg/ml) in isolated soleus muscle. LARD rats showed reduced rates of maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport compared with CON and SAFF (+68 vs. +172 and +184%, P < or = 0.001). gAd increased pACC (+25%, P < or = 0.01) and FA oxidation (+28%, P < or = 0.05) in CON rats, but not in either HF group. Thus 4 wk of HF feeding results in the loss of gAd stimulatory effect on ACC phosphorylation and muscle FA oxidation, and this can occur independently of impaired maximal insulin-stimulated glucose transport. 相似文献

The aim of this investigation was to evaluate if chronic leptin administration corrects high fat diet-induced skeletal muscle insulin resistance, in part, by enhancing rates of glucose disposal and if the improvements are accounted for by alterations in components of the insulin-signaling cascade. Sprague-Dawley rats consumed normal (CON) or high fat diets for three months. After the dietary lead in, the high fat diet group was further subdivided into high fat (HF) and high fat, leptin treated (HF-LEP) animals. HF-LEP animals were injected twice daily with leptin (5 mg/100 g body weight) for 10 days, while the CON and HF animals were injected with vehicle. Following the treatment periods, all animals were prepared for and subjected to hind limb perfusion. The high fat diet decreased rates of insulin-stimulated skeletal muscle glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in the red gastrocnemius (RG), but did not affect glycogen synthase activity, rates of glucose oxidation or nonoxidative disposal of glucose. Of interest, IRS-1-associated PI3-K activity and total GLUT4 protein concentration were reduced in the RG of the high fat-fed animals. Leptin treatment increased rates of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and glucose oxidation, and normalized rates of glycogen synthesis. Leptin appeared to mediate these effects by normalizing insulin-stimulated PI3-K activation and GLUT4 protein concentration in the RG. Collectively, these data suggest that chronic leptin treatment reverses the effects of a high fat diet thereby allowing the insulin signaling cascade and glucose transport effector system to be fully activated which in turn affects the amount of glucose that is transported across the plasma membrane and made available for glycogen synthesis. 相似文献

The primary purpose of this study was to determine the effect of prior exercise on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake with physiological insulin in isolated muscles of mice. Male C57BL/6 mice completed a 60-min treadmill exercise protocol or were sedentary. Paired epitrochlearis, soleus, and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were incubated with [3H]-2-deoxyglucose without or with insulin (60 microU/ml) to measure glucose uptake. Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake for paired muscles was calculated by subtracting glucose uptake without insulin from glucose uptake with insulin. Muscles from other mice were assessed for glycogen and AMPK Thr172 phosphorylation. Exercised vs. sedentary mice had decreased glycogen in epitrochlearis (48%, P < 0.001), soleus (51%, P < 0.001), and EDL (41%, P < 0.01) and increased AMPK Thr172 phosphorylation (P < 0.05) in epitrochlearis (1.7-fold), soleus (2.0-fold), and EDL (1.4-fold). Insulin-independent glucose uptake was increased 30 min postexercise vs. sedentary in the epitrochlearis (1.2-fold, P < 0.001), soleus (1.4-fold, P < 0.05), and EDL (1.3-fold, P < 0.01). Insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was increased (P < 0.05) approximately 85 min after exercise in the epitrochlearis (sedentary: 0.266 +/- 0.045 micromol x g(-1) x 15 min(-1); exercised: 0.414 +/- 0.051) and soleus (sedentary: 0.102 +/- 0.049; exercised: 0.347 +/- 0.098) but not in the EDL. Akt Ser473 and Akt Thr308 phosphorylation for insulin-stimulated muscles did not differ in exercised vs. sedentary. These results demonstrate enhanced submaximal insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in the epitrochlearis and soleus of mice 85 min postexercise and suggest that it will be feasible to probe the mechanism of enhanced postexercise insulin sensitivity by using genetically modified mice. 相似文献

Although the glucose-lowering properties of metformin are well-established, its effects on glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle have not been clearly defined. We tested the effects of metformin in young adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, which have a documented reduced response to insulin in skeletal muscle. Rats were treated with metformin for 20 days (320 mg/kg/day) in the drinking water. During this period, metformin completely prevented the increase in food intake and decreased adiposity by 30%. Metformin also reduced insulin secretion by 37% following an intra-peritoneal injection of glucose. Finally, metformin enhanced transport of [3H]-2-deoxyglucose in isolated strips of soleus muscle. Metformin substantially increased insulin-stimulated transport, while having no effect on basal transport. In control rats, a maximal concentration of insulin stimulated transport 77% above basal. In metformin-treated rats, insulin stimulated transport 206% above basal. We conclude that in the Sprague-Dawley rat model, metformin causes a significant increase in insulin-responsiveness. 相似文献

The effect of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was studied in adipose and muscle tissues of hypophysectomized female rats. IGF-I was given as a subcutaneous infusion via osmotic minipumps for 6 or 20 days. All hypophysectomized rats received L-thyroxine and cortisol replacement therapy. IGF-I treatment increased body weight gain but had no effect on serum glucose or free fatty acid levels. Serum insulin and C-peptide concentrations decreased. Basal and insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation into lipids was reduced in adipose tissue segments and isolated adipocytes from the IGF-I-treated rats. In contrast, insulin treatment of hypophysectomized rats for 7 days increased basal and insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation into lipids in isolated adipocytes. Pretreatment of isolated adipocytes in vitro with IGF-I increased basal and insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation into lipids. These results indicate that the effect of IGF-I on lipogenesis in adipose tissue is not direct but via decreased serum insulin levels, which reduce the capacity of adipocytes to metabolize glucose. Isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis, but not basal lipolysis, was enhanced in adipocytes from IGF-I-treated animals. In the soleus muscle, the glycogen content and insulin-stimulated glucose incorporation into glycogen were increased in IGF-I-treated rats. In summary, IGF-I has opposite effects on glucose uptake in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle, findings which at least partly explain previous reports of reduced body fat mass, increased body cell mass, and increased insulin responsiveness after IGF-I treatment. 相似文献

Bradykinin can enhance skeletal muscle glucose uptake (GU), and exercise increases both bradykinin production and muscle insulin sensitivity, but bradykinin's relationship with post-exercise insulin action is uncertain. Our primary aim was to determine if the B2 receptor of bradykinin (B2R) is essential for the post-exercise increase in GU by insulin-stimulated mouse soleus muscles. Wildtype (WT) and B2R knockout (B2RKO) mice were sedentary or performed 60 minutes of treadmill exercise. Isolated soleus muscles were incubated with [3H]-2-deoxyglucose +/-insulin (60 or 100 microU/ml). GU tended to be greater for WT vs. B2RKO soleus with 60 microU/ml insulin (P=0.166) and was significantly greater for muscles with 100 microU/ml insulin (P<0.05). Both genotypes had significant exercise-induced reductions (P<0.05) in glycemia and insulinemia, and the decrements for glucose (approximately 14 %) and insulin (approximately 55 %) were similar between genotypes. GU tended to be greater for exercised vs. sedentary soleus with 60 microU/ml insulin (P=0.063) and was significantly greater for muscles with 100 microU/ml insulin (P<0.05). There were no significant interactions between genotype and exercise for blood glucose, plasma insulin or GU. These results indicate that the B2R is not essential for the exercise-induced decrements in blood glucose or plasma insulin or for the post-exercise increase in GU by insulin-stimulated mouse soleus muscle. 相似文献

In sheep, central leptin infusion reduces food intake and increases energy expenditure in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. The mechanisms for these peripheral effects of central leptin in sheep are not known but, on the basis of rodent studies, may involve AMPK. In mice, central leptin acutely increases both skeletal muscle AMPK activation and glucose uptake. Thus, to investigate whether these effects exist in higher-order mammals, ovariectomized Corriedale ewes (n = 4 per group) received a continuous lateral ventricular infusion (60 μl/h) of either leptin (50 μg/h) or artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF; CON) for 8 days. Tritiated glucose (3-(3)H-glucose) was infused intravenously for calculation of whole body glucose turnover during both acute (6 h) and chronic (7-8 days) leptin/aCSF infusion. Muscle biopsies were also obtained. Leptin infusion reduced (P < 0.05) food intake and body weight, and it also increased plasma epinephrine concentration at 6 h and 7 days, suggesting increased sympathetic nerve activity. Despite this, and in contrast to rodent studies, central leptin infusion did not increase skeletal muscle AMPKα Thr(172) phosphorylation or ACCβ Ser(221) phosphorylation. Surprisingly, the glucose rate of appearance (glucose Ra) and rate of disappearance (glucose Rd) were reduced by both acute and chronic leptin infusion. Direct infusion of the AMPK activator 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxyamide-ribonucleoside (AICAR) into the femoral artery increased skeletal muscle AMPK phosphorylation. In conclusion, although central leptin infusion in sheep caused the predicted reduction in food intake and increases plasma epinephrine concentration, it had no effect on AMPK activation in skeletal muscle and actually reduced glucose disposal. This suggests that there are species differences in the peripheral responses to central leptin infusion. 相似文献

People living at high altitude appear to have lower blood glucose levels and decreased incidence of diabetes. Faster glucose uptake and increased insulin sensitivity are likely explanations for these findings: skeletal muscle is the largest glucose sink in the body, and its adaptation to the hypoxia of altitude may influence glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity. This study tested the hypothesis that chronic normobaric hypoxia increases insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in soleus muscles and decreases plasma glucose levels. Adult male C57BL/6J mice were kept in normoxia [fraction of inspired O? = 21% (Control)] or normobaric hypoxia [fraction of inspired O? = 10% (Hypoxia)] for 4 wk. Then blood glucose and insulin levels, in vitro muscle glucose uptake, and indexes of insulin signaling were measured. Chronic hypoxia lowered blood glucose and plasma insulin [glucose: 14.3 ± 0.65 mM in Control vs. 9.9 ± 0.83 mM in Hypoxia (P < 0.001); insulin: 1.2 ± 0.2 ng/ml in Control vs. 0.7 ± 0.1 ng/ml in Hypoxia (P < 0.05)] and increased insulin sensitivity determined by homeostatic model assessment 2 [21.5 ± 3.8 in Control vs. 39.3 ± 5.7 in Hypoxia (P < 0.03)]. There was no significant difference in basal glucose uptake in vitro in soleus muscle (1.59 ± 0.24 and 1.71 ± 0.15 μmol·g?1·h?1 in Control and Hypoxia, respectively). However, insulin-stimulated glucose uptake was 30% higher in the soleus after 4 wk of hypoxia than Control (6.24 ± 0.23 vs. 4.87 ± 0.37 μmol·g?1·h?1, P < 0.02). Muscle glycogen content was not significantly different between the two groups. Levels of glucose transporters 4 and 1, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, glycogen synthase kinase 3, protein kinase B/Akt, and AMP-activated protein kinase were not affected by chronic hypoxia. Akt phosphorylation following insulin stimulation in soleus muscle was significantly (25%) higher in Hypoxia than Control (P < 0.05). Neither glycogen synthase kinase 3 nor AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylation changed after 4 wk of hypoxia. These results demonstrate that the adaptation of skeletal muscles to chronic hypoxia includes increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. 相似文献

Undernutrition in rats impairs secretion of insulin but maintains glucose normotolerance, because muscle tissue presents an increased insulin-induced glucose uptake. We studied glucose transporters in gastrocnemius muscles from food-restricted and control anesthetized rats under basal and euglycemic hyperinsulinemic conditions. Muscle membranes were prepared by subcellular fractionation in sucrose gradients. Insulin-induced glucose uptake, estimated by a 2-deoxyglucose technique, was increased 4- and 12-fold in control and food-restricted rats, respectively. Muscle insulin receptor was increased, but phosphotyrosine-associated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity stimulated by insulin was lower in undernourished rats, whereas insulin receptor substrate-1 content remained unaltered. The main glucose transporter in the muscle, GLUT-4, was severely reduced albeit more efficiently translocated in response to insulin in food-deprived rats. GLUT-1, GLUT-3, and GLUT-5, minor isoforms in skeletal muscle, were found increased in food-deprived rats. The rise in these minor glucose carriers, as well as the improvement in GLUT-4 recruitment, is probably insufficient to account for the insulin-induced increase in the uptake of glucose in undernourished rats, thereby suggesting possible changes in other steps required for glucose metabolism. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine barriers limiting muscle glucose uptake (MGU) during increased glucose flux created by raising blood glucose in the presence of fixed insulin. The determinants of the maximal velocity (V(max)) of MGU in muscles of different fiber types were defined. Conscious rats were studied during a 4 mU x kg(-1) x min(-1) insulin clamp with plasma glucose at 2.5, 5.5, and 8.5 mM. [U-(14)C]mannitol and 3-O-methyl-[(3)H]glucose ([(3)H]MG) were infused to steady-state levels (t = -180 to 0 min). These isotope infusions were continued from 0 to 40 min with the addition of a 2-deoxy-[(3)H]glucose ([(3)H]DG) infusion. Muscles were excised at t = 40 min. Glucose metabolic index (R(g)) was calculated from muscle-phosphorylated [(3)H]DG. [U-(14)C]mannitol was used to determine extracellular (EC) H(2)O. Glucose at the outer ([G](om)) and inner ([G](im)) sarcolemmal surfaces was determined by the ratio of [(3)H]MG in intracellular to EC H(2)O and muscle glucose. R(g) was comparable at the two higher glucose concentrations, suggesting that rates of uptake near V(max) were reached. In summary, by defining the relationship of arterial glucose to [G](om) and [G](im) in the presence of fixed hyperinsulinemia, it is concluded that 1) V(max) for MGU is limited by extracellular and intracellular barriers in type I fibers, as the sarcolemma is freely permeable to glucose; 2) V(max) is limited in muscles with predominantly type IIb fibers by extracellular resistance and transport resistance; and 3) limits to R(g) are determined by resistance at multiple steps and are better defined by distributed control rather than by a single rate-limiting step. 相似文献

Calorie restriction [CR; ~65% of ad libitum (AL) intake] improves insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (GU) and Akt phosphorylation in skeletal muscle. We aimed to elucidate the effects of CR on 1) processes that regulate Akt phosphorylation [insulin receptor (IR) tyrosine phosphorylation, IR substrate 1-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (IRS-PI3K) activity, and Akt binding to regulatory proteins (heat shock protein 90, Appl1, protein phosphatase 2A)]; 2) Akt substrate of 160-kDa (AS160) phosphorylation on key phosphorylation sites; and 3) atypical PKC (aPKC) activity. Isolated epitrochlearis (fast-twitch) and soleus (slow-twitch) muscles from AL or CR (6 mo duration) 9-mo-old male F344BN rats were incubated with 0, 1.2, or 30 nM insulin and 2-deoxy-[(3)H]glucose. Some CR effects were independent of insulin dose or muscle type: CR caused activation of Akt (Thr(308) and Ser(473)) and GU in both muscles at both insulin doses without CR effects on IRS1-PI3K, Akt-PP2A, or Akt-Appl1. Several muscle- and insulin dose-specific CR effects were revealed. Akt-HSP90 binding was increased in the epitrochlearis; AS160 phosphorylation (Ser(588) and Thr(642)) was greater for CR epitrochlearis at 1.2 nM insulin; and IR phosphorylation and aPKC activity were greater for CR in both muscles with 30 nM insulin. On the basis of these data, our working hypothesis for improved insulin-stimulated GU with CR is as follows: 1) elevated Akt phosphorylation is fundamental, regardless of muscle or insulin dose; 2) altered Akt binding to regulatory proteins (HSP90 and unidentified Akt partners) is involved in the effects of CR on Akt phosphorylation; 3) Akt effects on GU depend on muscle- and insulin dose-specific elevation in phosphorylation of Akt substrates, including, but not limited to, AS160; and 4) greater IR phosphorylation and aPKC activity may contribute at higher insulin doses. 相似文献

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) elicits a strong immune response, which leads to the release of inflammatory cytokines. Increased cytokine production has been shown to impair insulin-mediated glucose disposal. LPS can alter other factors, such as muscle blood flow and insulin signaling in the myocyte, that can influence glucose disposal. We hypothesize that LPS induced impairments in cardiovascular function contribute to the associated impairments in insulin action in vivo. Male wild-type C57BL/6J mice had a catheter implanted in the jugular vein for infusions and the carotid artery for sampling 5 days prior to the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp. Mice were treated with vehicle, low- (1 ug/gBW) or high-dose (10 ug/gBW) LPS 4 hours prior to the clamp. Muscle glucose uptake (MGU) was assessed using [2-(14)C] deoxyglucose. While both low- and high-dose LPS inhibited insulin-stimulated MGU compared to vehicle-treated mice, the impairment was more significant with the high-dose treatment (~25% in soleus and ~70% in both gastrocnemius and vastus lateralis). Interestingly, insulin signaling through the PI3-kinase pathway in the muscle was not affected by this treatment suggesting that the decrease in MGU is not directly due to impairments in muscle insulin action. Echocardiography demonstrated that high-dose LPS treatment significantly decreased stroke volume (~30%), heart rate (~35%), and cardiac output (~50%). These observations were not seen with vehicle or low-dose LPS treatment. High-dose LPS treatment also significantly decreased muscle blood flow (~70%) and whole body oxygen consumption (~50%). Thus, in vivo acute endotoxemia does not impair insulin signaling through the PI3-kinase pathway in skeletal muscle and decreased tissue blood flow likely plays a central role in the impairment of glucose uptake in the muscle. 相似文献

Calorie restriction (CR; ~60% of ad libitum, AL, consumption) improves insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. The precise cellular mechanism for this healthful outcome is unknown, but it is accompanied by enhanced insulin-stimulated activation of Akt. Previous research using Akt2-null mice demonstrated that Akt2 is essential for the full CR-effect on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by muscle. However, because Akt2-null mice were completely deficient in Akt2 in every cell throughout life, it would be valuable to assess the efficacy of transient, muscle-specific Akt inhibition for attenuation of CR-effects on glucose uptake. Accordingly, we used a selective Akt inhibitor (MK-2206) to eliminate the CR-induced elevation in insulin-stimulated Akt2 phosphorylation and determined the effects on Akt substrates and glucose uptake. We incubated isolated epitrochlearis muscles from 9-month-old AL and CR (~60-65% of AL intake for 6months) rats with or without MK-2206 and measured insulin-stimulated (1.2nM) glucose uptake and phosphorylation of the insulin receptor (Tyr1162/1163), pan-Akt (Thr308 and Ser473), Akt2 (Thr308 and Ser473), AS160/TBC1D4 (Thr642), and Filamin C (Ser2213). Incubation of isolated skeletal muscles with a dose of a selective Akt inhibitor that eliminated the CR-induced increases in Akt2 phosphorylation prevented CR's effects on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, pAS160(Thr642) and pFilamin C(Ser2213) without altering pIR(Tyr1162/1163). These data provide compelling new evidence linking the CR-induced increase in insulin-stimulated Akt2 phosphorylation to CR's effects on insulin-mediated phosphorylation of Akt substrates and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. 相似文献

Leucine, a branched-chain amino acid, has been shown to promote glucose uptake and increase insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle, but the exact mechanism remains unestablished. We addressed this issue in cultured skeletal muscle cells in this study. Our results showed that leucine alone did not have an effect on glucose uptake or phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT), but facilitated the insulin-induced glucose uptake and AKT phosphorylation. The insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and AKT phosphorylation were inhibited by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor, wortmannin, but the inhibition was partially reversed by leucine. The inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), rapamycin, had no effect on the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, but eliminated the facilitating effect of leucine in the insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and AKT phosphorylation. In addition, leucine facilitation of the insulin-induced AKT phosphorylation was neutralized by knocking down the core component of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) with specific siRNA. Together, these findings show that leucine can facilitate the insulin-induced insulin signaling and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells through both mTORC1 and mTORC2, implicating the potential importance of this amino acid in glucose homeostasis and providing new mechanistic insights. 相似文献

1. The sc injection of 1-thyroxine (2 mg/kg bw/day) for 8 days produced a significant decrease of body weight gain in young male Wistar rats. 2. In these hyperthyroid rats there was a significant decrease in the wet weight of the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus (Sol) muscles as compared with those of control rats. 3. The basal glucose uptake by the EDL and Sol muscles was unchanged in hyperthyroid rats using the wet weight of muscle as a reference. 4. In hyperthyroid rats, the insulin-stimulated uptake of glucose by both the EDL and Sol muscles was significantly decreased. This inhibition was stronger in Sol and there was no insulin stimulation of glucose uptake by Sol. 相似文献

Male NMRI-mice were subjected to exhaustive treadmill exercise. 3 and 6 days after the exertion, quadriceps femoris muscles were examined histologically and analyzed for acid hydrolases in order to follow the degree and progress of injuries. Prednisolone (PRED), an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid, was given to some of the animals in order to modify the exercise response. The PRED administration began 14 h before exercise and continued until the end of the experiment (6 days). The doses were 25 and 50 mg . kg-1 i.p. twice a day. The activities of both arylsulphatase and beta-glucuronidase increased significantly in the exercise control group after 3 and 6 days. The increase in activity correlated with fibre necrosis and an abundant infiltration of inflammatory cells, and was greatest after 3 days. After 6 days the inflammatory response decreased and regenerating muscle fibres were seen. PRED decreased the exercise-induced acid hydrolase response. The decrease was most prominent after 3 days with PRED 50 mg . kg-1 . day-1. PRED also diminished degeneration and inflammation. The results suggest that the decrease in acid hydrolase activities was due to a lesser infiltration of inflammatory cells to the injured area. 相似文献
