Physical exercise is one of the best interventions for improving traumatic brain injury (TBI) outcomes. However, an argument has been raised regarding the timing at which physical exercise should be initiated. In this study, male Wistar rats were subjected to stab wounding of the right hemisphere to develop a TBI model and were forced to walk once on a treadmill at a 5-m/min pace at 24 h or 48 h after TBI for 10 min. Injured brain tissue was dissected after TBI to evaluate the effects of exercise. Behavioral abnormalities and motor impairment were assessed by various behavioral tests between 2 and 3 weeks after TBI. Exercise did not affect the circulating corticosterone levels and the weight of the adrenal glands. Exercise particularly that at 24 h, worsened the motor impairment of the left forelimbs. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction showed that exercise at 24 h increased proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines on the third day while suppressing the proinflammatory reactions on the fourth day. Exercise at both time points decreased expression of transforming growth factor (TGF) β1 and its receptor TGFβR1. Exercise at 24 h increased phosphorylation of IκB kinase on the fourth day, which may be correlated with the decreased effects of TGFβ1. Even a low-intensity exercise activity could cause deleterious effects when it is initiated within 48 h after the onset of severe TBI, probably because of the resulting proinflammatory effects. Therefore, rehabilitation exercise programs should be initiated after 48 h of TBI onset. Keywords: Cylinder test, Beam test, IL-1β, CCL2, TGF β, IL-6 |
