Abstrakt: | Introduction/aims: Effective strategies for rapid recovery after surgery are needed. Therefore, we investigated the effects of exercise prehabilitation (EP) and hindlimb unloading (HU) on muscle loss and contractility. Methods: Twenty-two Sprague-Dawley rats (12 wk old) were divided into normal control (NCON, n = 5), hindlimb unloading control (HCON, n = 10), and exercise prehabilitation followed by hindlimb unloading (Ex-preH, n = 7) groups. Ex-PreH performed exercise training for 14 days before hindlimb unloading for 14 days. Body composition was evaluated, along with muscle strength and function. The soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle contractile properties were analyzed at the whole-muscle level. The titin concentration and myosin heavy chain (MHC) type composition were analyzed. Results: There were no effects of Ex-preH on total mass, lean mass, or muscle weight. Physical function was significantly higher in the Ex-preH group than in the HCON group (39.5° vs. 35.7°). The SOL twitch force (19.6 vs. 7.1 mN/m 2 ) and specific force (107.3 vs. 61.2 mN/m 2 ) were greater in Ex-preH group than in HCON group. EDL shortening velocity was higher in Ex-preH group than in HCON group (13.2 vs. 5.0 FL/s). The SOL full-length titin level was higher in Ex-preH group than in HCON group. Discussion: Exercise prehabilitation did not prevent muscle mass loss followed by muscle wasting, although it minimized the reduction of physical function. Therefore, exercise prehabilitation should be considered for rapid functional recovery after disuse due to surgery and injuries. (© 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.) |
