Abstract: | Bloomfield, Susan A., Beverly E. Girten, and Steven E. Weisbrode. Effects of vigorous exercise training and -agonist administration on bone response to hindlimb suspension.J. Appl. Physiol. 83(1):172-178, 1997. The effectiveness of dobutamine (Dob) inpreventing bone loss during 14 days of hindlimb suspension (Sus) wastested in exercise-trained (Ex; n = 25) and sedentary (Sed; n = 22) rats(age 155 days). One-half of each group was given Dob (2 mg · kg 1 · day 1)or saline (Sal). Histomorphometric measurements at midfemur revealed a17% smaller cortical bone area (CBA) and a 32% lower periostealmineral apposition rate (MAR) in suspended vs. nonsuspended Sed/Salrats. Dob abolished this decline in CBA in Sed/Sus rats, probably via an attenuation of the decrease in periosteal MAR; similarbut nonsignificant effects on cross-sectional moment of inertia wereobserved. Nonsuspended Ex rats had no change in bone CBA when CBA isindexed to body weight. Sus appeared to uncouple the relationshipbetween soleus weight and CBA. Dob attenuated the 43% decline insoleus weight after Sus in Ex but not in Sed rats. In summary, vigorousEx before Sus does not affect loss of bone mass due to unloading; Dobeffectively maintains CBA in Sed rats subjected to suspension. |
