Long Term Effect of Allii tuberosi semen on Muscle Fatigue and Muscular Strength

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the muscle anti-fatigue effects of Allii tuberosi semen after long term administration. Materials and Methods: 4-6 weeks old ICR mice were used in this study and we administered the water soluble extracts of Allii tuberosi semen in the concentration of 1, 10 and 100mg/0.3ml to each 5 mice (ATS group) and same volume of normal saline was administered to 5 mice (control group) once a day for 90 or 120 days. After the administration we performed the swimming exercise test and the grip strength test. And we measured the concentration of glucose and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase in plasma regarded as biochemical indicator related with the muscular fatigue. Results: In swimming exercise test, all ATS groups showed increased time compared with relative control group after 90 days administration. But after 120 days adminstration 10 and 100mg/0.3ml ATS groups showed increased results. In grip strength test, all ATS group increased grip strength after 90 days administration and 10mg/0.3ml ATS group showed increased result after 120 days administration. All the results of plasma glucose didn't showed statistically significant difference after 90 and 120 days administration. In the plasma concentration of activity level of lactate dehydrogenase, 1mg/0.3ml and 10mg/0.3ml ATS groups showed decreased concentration compared with relative control group after 90 days administration. But after 120 days adminstration 1mg/0.3ml ATS groups showed decreased results. Conclusion: From this study we could find the anti-fatigue effect of Allii tuberosi semen in the muscle strength related test.
