Objective: To investigate the effects of Dendrobium officinale on energy metabolism and expression of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) mRNA in athletic fatigue mice. Method: Sixty male Kunming mice were divided randomly into control group
D. officinale low-dose group
middle-dose group
high-dose group. The low-dose group
middle-dose group and high-dose group were intragastricaly (ig)administrated with D. officinale respectively according to 0.75
1.5
4.5 g·kg-1 while control group was ig given same volume normal saline
once a day for 30 days. The weight carrying swimming test were used to observe exhaustive weight carrying swimming time and to examine levels of serum urea
muscle glycogen
hepatic glycogen
lactic acid and the expression of CNTF mRNA. Result: Compared to control group
exhaustive weight carrying swimming time in low-dose group increased (P<0.05)
and in both middle-dose group and high-dose group increased significantly(P<0.01). Compared to control group
the levels of serum urea and lactic acid in both low-dose group and middle-dose group decreased(P<0.05)
and in high-dose group decreased significantly(P<0.01). Compared to control group
the levels of muscle glycogen and hepatic glycogen in middle-dose group increased (P<0.05)and in high-dose group increased significantly (P<0.01). Compared to control group
the expression of CNTF mRNA in low-dose group increased (P<0.05)
and in middle-dose group and high-dose group increased significantly(P<0.01). Conclusion: D. officinale could increase glycogen store
decrease the level of serum urea and lactic acid accumulation
meantime
could up-regulate the expression of CNTF mRNA
which may be one of mechanisms that D.officinale alleviate athletic fatigue by regulating energy metabolism and nourishing muscle.
