OBJECTIVE
To observe the effect of Chinese herbal compound on variance of neurotransmitters in rat telencephalon and to further discuss the mechanism underlying Chinese herbal compound in improving exercise capacity and promoting recovery from exercise-induced fatigue.
METHODS
64 rats (8 week old) were randomly divided into medicine group (MG) and control group (CG). Chinese herbal compound was administered to rats of MG for 8 weeks. 8 weeks later, every group was divided into 4 subgroups and all were killed at different time point separately, and then neurotransmitter in rat brain was tested.
RESULTS
The exhaustion time of MG was significantly longer than that in CG (P < 0.01). In rest conditions, glutamic acid (GLU) of MG was significantly higher than that in CG (P < 0.01), while, there were no significant differences between MG and CG in other indexes. After fixed quantitative load exercise, the content of 5-hydroxytryptamineZZ(5-HT), 5-hydroindole acetic (5-HIAA), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), Dopamine (DA) and 5-HT/5-HIAA were significantly lower than those in CG, while, GLU, GLU/GABA and DA/5-HT were significantly higher than those in CG. Compared with CG, exhaustion significantly (P < 0.05) decreased 5-HT, GABA and 5-HT/5-HIAA, and significantly (P<0.05) increased GLU, DA/5-HT and GLU/GABA level in MG. 12 h after exhaustion, in contrast to CG, level of 5-HT and 5-HT/5-HIAA in MG were significantly (P < 0.01) lower while GLU, DA, GABA and DA/5-HT were significantly (P < 0.01) higher.
CONCLUSIONS
During exhaustion exercise, Chinese herbal compound demonstrated strong inhibiting effect on synthesis of 5-HT, 5-HIAA, DA, GABA and promoting effect on GLU synthesis, this had been confirmed by the combined effect, including increase of excitatory transmitter and excitability of central nervous system and the prolongation of exhaustion time and promoting recovery from fatigue.
