Objective To investigate the effect of exercise and a loe on serum antioxidant enzyme activity in diabetic rats. Methods Adult male Streptozotocin-diabetic rats were used as research subject. Afte r exercise, aloe and exercise combines aloe treated, the changes in SOD, GSH-Px, CAT activity, MDA contents, blood glucose and insulin were measured. R esults The level of SOD, GSH-Px, CAT activity and insulin of treated diabetic groups were significant higher (P

0.05).Conclusion The hypoxic exposure can accelerate the production of erythrocyte, and treat the exercise-induced anemia effectively. Improvement of some haematopoietic factors and enhancement of hematopoiesis in marrow is thought to be the possible mechanism.

BACKGROUND:The phenomenon of atrophy or reduction of muscle, causing degenerative changes of muscle functions, appears along with age. Sports training, in which muscle satelite cels are of great importance, is beneficial to increase in muscle mass and improvement of muscle function.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize regulatory mechanism of satelite cels in skeletal muscle mass; changes of satelite muscle cels in the degenerative process of muscle mass and strength; declining and reverse effects of sports training intervention; situations and problems of current research and prospective of the future.
METHODS:A computer-based online search was conducted in PubMed database by using the key words of “sarcopenia, skeletal muscle, satelite cels” from 1986 to 2015. The language was limited to English. The eligible papers were further analyzed and reviewed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 168 papers were screened. Finaly, 39 papers were selected according to the titles and objectives. Skeletal muscle atrophy is shown as II type muscle fiber atrophy, and the II type muscle fiber satelite cel content decreases simultaneously. Exercise is beneficial to increase muscle mass and improve muscle function in older people. Both resistance and endurance trainings can increase the skeletal muscle, especialy the II muscle fiber satelite cel content with a further increase in the satelite cel activation and proliferation. The number and activation degree of satelite cels are related to muscle aging, and satelite cels and proliferation factors regulate muscle cel formation. Therefore, future researches should not only focus on the increase of satelite cel bank, but also explore effective ways to promote the activation of satelite cels, such as exercise training, nutrition and drugs.
