Metabolic relations in rats under the ladder in anaerobic

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the behavior of glycogen reserves of limb muscles anterior and posterior, and metabolic adjustments in aged rats subjected to anaerobic training. Wistar rats with 18 months divided into two experimental groups (n=10), control (C) and Anaerobic training (Tana). After training, the rats were anesthetized and blood samples and muscle collected and sent for biochemical evaluation. The data show higher glycogen reserves in the Tana group indicating overcompensation with predominant effect on the muscles of the hindquarters; observed lower body weight and increased adrenal weight accompanied by higher plasma concentrations of total protein. The data set Tana indicate that provides improved metabolic homeostasis and quality of life.
