Effect of Xiao Jianzhongtang on AMPK/PGC1-α Signal Pathway in Skeletal Muscle of Exercise Fatigue Mice
To observe the effect of Xiao Jianzhongtang on Adenylate-activated protein kinase/peroxidase proliferation-activated receptor coactivator 1-
α
(AMPK/PGC1-
α
) signaling pathway in skeletal muscle of exercise fatigue mice.
Method
2
Forty Kunming mice were randomly divided into normal group, model group, Buzhong Yiqitang group and Xiao Jianzhongtang group, with 10 mice in each group. The model group, Buzhong Yiqitang group and Xiao Jianzhongtang group were trained on the treadmill to establish a fatigue model, and the normal group did not apply any intervention. At the same time as the treadmill training, the model group was given the same amount of normal saline. Xiao Jianzhongtang was administered with 5 g·kg
-1
of medicine, and Buzhong Yiqitang was administered with 2.8 g·kg
-1
of medicine for 6 days. After the experiment, the weight of each group of mice and the time of running out of exhaustion were measured,the colorimetric method was used to detect the serum urea (UREA), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), muscle glycogen (MG), and skeletal muscle of each group of mice Na

-ATPase content, pathological changes of skeletal muscle of each group were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of AMPK and PGC1-
α
in skeletal muscle of each group .
Result
2
Compared with normal group, the body weight of model group significantly decreased (
P

0.01), and the expression of AMPK and PGC1-
α
protein increased significantly (
P
<
0.01). Compared with model group, the mice in the Xiao Jianzhongtang group had significantly increased body weight (
P
<
0.05), significantly increased the time spent on treadmill exhaustion(

protein increased significantly (
P

Conclusion
2
Xiao Jianzhongtang has an anti-exercise fatigue effect, which may be related to enhancing skeletal muscle AMPK/PGC1-
α
pathway,enhancing mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation,reducing accumulation of metabolites,slowing down glycogen consumption and decomposition,and enhancing skeletal muscle energy synthesis.
