ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To test whether swimming training benefits femoral neck strength in young diabetic rats under insulin therapy. METHODS: A total of 60 male Wistar rats (age: 40 days) were divided equally into the following six groups: control sedentary, control exercise, diabetic sedentary, diabetic exercise, diabetic sedentary plus insulin and diabetic exercise plus insulin. Diabetes was induced with a unique intraperitoneal injection (60 mg/kg body weight) of streptozotocin. Seven days after the injection and after 12 hours of fasting, the animals with blood glucose levels ≥300 mg/dL were considered diabetic. Seven days after the induction of diabetes, the animals in the exercise groups were subjected to progressive swimming training (final week: 90 min/day; 5 days/week; 5% load) for eight weeks. The animals in the insulin groups received a daily dose of insulin (2-4 U/day) for the same period. RESULTS: Severe streptozotocin-induced diabetes reduced the structural properties of the femoral neck (trabecular bone volume, trabecular thickness and collagen fiber content). The femoral neck mechanical properties (maximum load and tenacity) were also impaired in the diabetic rats. Insulin therapy partially reversed the damage induced by diabetes on the structural properties of the bone and mitigated the reductions in the mechanical properties of the bone. The combination of therapies further increased the femoral neck trabecular bone volume (∼30%), trabecular thickness (∼24%), collagen type I (∼19%) and type III (∼13%) fiber contents, maximum load (∼25%) and tenacity (∼14%). CONCLUSIONS: Eight weeks of swimming training potentiates the recovery of femoral neck strength in young rats with severe streptozotocin-induced diabetes under insulin therapy.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo investigou se a suplementação com creatina e cafeína, isoladamente ou combinadas, interfere na força de fratura óssea em ratos jovens exercitados. Os ratos foram divididos aleatoriamente em oito grupos: sedentários placebo, exercitado placebo, sedentário creatina, exercitado creatina, sedentário cafeína, exercitado cafeína, sedentário creatina + cafeína e treinado creatina + cafeína. Os grupos suplementados receberam creatina (carga: 0,430g/kg de peso corporal, por sete dias; e manutenção: 0,143g/kg, por 35 dias), cafeína (10mg/100g de peso corporal, por 35 dias) ou creatina+cafeína. Os grupos exercitados executaram saltos verticais na água (4x10 saltos com 1 minuto de intervalo entre séries, 5 dias/sem) por seis semanas. A ingestão de cafeína reduziu a espessura, o peso e a força de fratura do fêmur dos ratos, independentemente do exercício. A cafeína e a creatina+cafeína aumentaram a excreção urinária de cálcio. O exercício de saltos elevou a força de fratura, independentemente da suplementação, mas não alterou o peso e as dimensões do fêmur dos animais.


This study investigated whether supplementation with high doses of creatine and caffeine, alone or in combination, affects the bone breaking force of exercised rats. Rats were randomly divided into 8 groups: Sedentary or Exercised (placebo, creatine, caffeine or creatine plus caffeine). The supplemented groups received creatine (load: 0.430 g/kg body weight, for 7 days; and maintenance: 0.143 g/kg for 35 days), caffeine (10 mg/100g body weight, for 35 days) or creatine plus caffeine. The exercised groups underwent a vertical jump training in water (4 sets of 10 jumps interspersed with 1 min resting intervals, 5 days/wk), for 6 weeks. Caffeine ingestion reduced the femur´s width, weight and breaking force, independently of exercise. Caffeine and creatine plus caffeine increased the urinary calcium excretion. Jumping exercise increased the bone breaking force independently of supplementation; nevertheless it did not change the weight and dimensions of the femur of the animals.

ABSTRACT

Os objetivos deste estudo foram testar se programas de natação com intensidades abaixo do limiar de lactato induzem a expressão de proteínas de estresse (Hsp72) no miocárdio de ratos e se a indução da expressão de Hsp72 é distinta nos ventrículos direito e esquerdo. Ratos Wistar foram alocados randomicamente em três grupos: controle (C, n = 8); natação sem sobrecarga (NSS, n = 8); e natação com sobrecarga - 3% do peso corporal (NCS, n = 8). Animais NSS e NCS nadaram 30 minutos/dia, cinco dias/semana, durante sete semanas. Após eutanásia, o coração foi removido, pesado e foram coletados fragmentos dos ventrículos direito (VD) e esquerdo (VE) para análise dos níveis de Hsp72. O peso relativo do coração não foi diferente (p=0,68) entre os grupos (C=4,52 ± 0,87; NSS= 4,54 ± 0,79; NCS=4,72 ± 0,16 mg/g). Os níveis de Hsp72 foram maiores no VE do grupo NCS do que no C (396,29 ± 11,91 vs. 321,04 ± 9,65 unidade arbitrária, respectivamente; p = 0,0006). Hsp72 no VE do grupo NCS foram maiores que no NSS (396,29 ± 11,91 vs. 339,43 ± 10,21 unidade arbitrária, respectivamente; p = 0,004). Não houve diferença de Hsp72 no VD entre os grupos (C=320,02 ± 10,35; NSS=321,53 ± 24,8; NCS=353,08 ± 23,44 unidade arbitrária; p = 0,47). Não houve diferença na expressão de Hsp72 entre VD e VE nos grupos (C, p=0,94; NSS, p=0,52; NCS, p=0,11). Concluiu-se que o programa de natação com intensidade abaixo do limiar de lactato (3% do peso corporal) induz a expressão de HSP 72 no miocárdio de ratos, especialmente no ventrículo esquerdo.


We tested whether swimming training regimes of different intensities bellow the anaerobic threshold induce expression of stress protein (Hsp72) in rat’s myocardium; and if the expression of Hsp72 differs between left and right ventricles. Wistar rats (6 weeks of age, body weight of ~ 261 g) were allocated into three groups: control (C, n = 8); unloaded swimming (NSS, n = 8); and loaded swimming - 3% body weight (NCS, n = 8). Animals from NSS and NCS swam 30 min/day, 5 days/week, during 7 days. At sacrifice the heart was removed and weighed. Fragments of right (RV) and left ventricles (LV) were harvested and the levels of Hsp72 determined. The heart weight to body weight ratio did not differ among C, NSS and NCS groups (4.52 ± 0.87; 4.54 ± 0.79; 4.72 ± 0.16 mg/g, respectively). The LV levels of Hsp72 were higher in NCS group than in C (396.29 ± 11.91 vs. 321.04 ± 9.65 arbitrary unit, respectively, p = 0.0006). The LV levels of Hsp72 were higher in NCS than in NSS (396.29 ± 11.91 vs. 339.43 ± 10.21 arbitrary unit, respectively; p = 0.004). There was no difference in RV levels of Hsp72 among groups (C=320.02 ± 10.35; NSS=321.53 ± 24.80; NCS=353.08 ± 23.44 arbitrary unit; p = 0.47). There was no difference in Hsp72 levels between RV and LV among groups (C, p=0.94; NSS, P=0.52; NCS, p=0.11). It was concluded that the swimming training program with intensity bellow the anaerobic threshold (3% body weight) induces expression of Hsp72 in the rat myocardium, especially in the left ventricle.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: testar os efeitos de altas doses de cafeína na resistência óssea à fratura em ratas jovens submetidas a treinamento de saltos verticais. MÉTODOS: ratas jovens foram alocadas em 4 grupos (Fatorial 2 x 2, Cafeína e Exercício). Grupos Cafeína receberam 3 doses (10 mg/100 g m.c.)/semana. Grupos Exercício realizaram treino de saltos verticais na água, 5 sessões/semana, por 6 semanas. Avaliou-se o cálcio urinário, diâmetro, massa e resistência à fratura do fêmur. RESULTADOS: cafeína e exercício aumentaram a excreção de cálcio. Cafeína reduziu a massa femoral, mas não afetou sua resistência à fratura. Exercício aumentou o diâmetro e a resistência femoral à fratura. CONCLUSÃO: cafeína não prejudica a resistência óssea em ratas jovens enquanto saltos verticais fortalecem os ossos.


OBJECTIVE: to test the effects of high dosage of caffeine on the bone breaking force of young female rats submitted to vertical jumping training. METHODS: young female rats were divided into 4 groups (2 x 2 factorial, Caffeine and Exercise). Caffeine groups ingested 3 doses of caffeine (10 mg/100 g bw) weekly. Exercise groups performed vertical jumps in water, 5 days/week, for 6 weeks. Urinary calcium, femur's diameter, mass and breaking force were assessed. RESULTS: caffeine and exercise increased the loss of calcium. Caffeine increased diameter and reduced femur mass, but did not affect its breaking force. Exercise increased bone's diameter and bone breaking force. CONCLUSION: caffeine does not impair bone breaking force in young female rats while vertical jumping enhances bone strength.
