Abstract:
Objective:To investigate effects of strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidney and their combination before and after exercise on relative indexes of metabolism of glucose and amino acids.Methods:Strengthening the spleen alone,tonifying the kidney alone or their combination before and after exercise was given to the rat receiving 7-week gradually increasing load exercise on a running platform,and after quantitative load,contents of serum lactic acid,urea nitrogen,glucose,hepatic glycogen,muscle glycogen,hemoglobin,and malondialdehyde(MDA)in renal tissue and activity of superoxide dismulase(SOD)in the renal tissue were determined.Results:Strengthening the spleen before exercise increased hepatic and muscle glycogen contents,and tonifying the kidney before exercise increased muscle glycogen content,and strengthening the spleen combined with tonifying the kidney before and after exercise increased hemoglobin level,strengthening the spleen followed by tonifying the kidney before exercise decreased serum lactic acid and urea nitrogen levels,increased muscle glycogen content and SOD activity/MDA content ratio in the kidney.Conclusion:Strengthening the spleen and tonifying the kidney play a certain role in reducing motion-related fatigue,while strengthening the spleen followed by tonifying the kidney before exercise has the best results.
