통곡물 시리얼(Whole grain cereal, WGC)이 함유된 식이는 에너지 대사 조절에 중요한 다량영양소(macronutrients)를 제공한다. 본 연구는 고지방식이(high-fat diet, HFD)로 유발된 비만 마우스를 이용하여 WGC의 근감소성 비만 예방 효과에 대해 평가하였다. C57BL/6N 마우스에 정상식이(normal diet, ND), ND+WGC, HFD, HFD+WGC를 12주 동안 제공하였다. WGC는 체중, 식이효율, 체지방 및 지방세포의 크기를 감소시켰다. 또한, WGC는 간 무게 및 간에 축적된 지방을 감소시킴으로써 HFD에 의한 비알코올성 지방간을 개선시켰다. 더욱이, WGC는 비만 마우스 및 정상 마우스의 근육 무게 및 근력을 증가시켰다. 따라서, WGC는 지방 축적을 억제하고 근육량을 증가시키므로 근감소성 비만 예방을 위한 기능성 식품으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose : This study aimed to investigate the effect of blood flow restriction exercise on ankle muscle strength and balance ability to achieve maximum efficiency with the same exercise intensity and time. Methods : Twenty-six adults are randomly assigned to experimental group (n=13) and comparison group (n=13). The experimental group performed ankle joint strength exercises with blood flow restriction applied while the comparison group performed ankle joint strength exercises without blood flow restriction applied three times a week for four weeks. The digital muscle measurement, Y-balance test, and Cumberland ankle instability tool were used to evaluate the subject's muscle strength, dynamic balance, and ankle instability index before and after the intervention. Results : In within-group comparison muscle strength, all the two groups showed significant improvements post intervention (p<.05). In between-group comparison, there was significant difference in the change of dorsiflexion, eversion strength pre and post intervention (p<.05). but plantarflexion was no significant difference between pre and post intervention in the group comparison (p>.05). In within-group comparison dynamic balance, all the two groups showed significant improvements post intervention (p<.05). In between-group comparison, there was no significant difference in the change of Y-balance score pre and post intervention (p>.05). In within-group comparison ankle instability index, all the two groups showed significant improvements post intervention (p<.05). In between-group comparison, there was no significant difference in the change of CAIT score pre and post intervention (p>.05). Conclusion : The results of this study show that ankle joint strength exercise improved the strength and balance ability of those complaining of chronic ankle instability, and ankle joint strength exercise applied with blood flow restriction was more effective in dorsiflexion and eversion strength exercise than ankle joint strength exercise without blood flow restriction.

Studies were carried out to determine the effect of feeding diet containing 5% canola oil on growth, feed efficiency, and fatty acid profile of bacon in finishing pigs and of longissimus muscle in horses fattening for meat production. In experiment 1, twenty cross-bred barrows and twenty cross-bred gilts (average weight, 80 kg) were blocked by sex and weight, and five barrows or five gilts were allotted to one of eight pens $(6.25m^2/pen)$, respectively. Four pens (two with barrows and two with gilts) randomly selected were assigned to a control diet containing 5% tallow and the remaining four pens to a diet containing 5% canola oil. The average daily weight gain, daily feed intake and feed efficiency over a 6-wk feeding period were not different (p>0.05) between the two diets, nor was backfat thickness. Fatty acid profile in bacon fat showed that the 0-3 fatty acid ($\alpha-linolenic$ acid) content in pigs fed diet containing 5% canola oil was approximately three times (P<0.01) as much as in pigs fed tallow. In experiment 2, thirty-two Jeju horses (average $weight{\pm}SE,\;244{\pm}5kg$) were blocked by sex and weight, and two horses of the same sex and similar body weight were allotted to one $(15m^2/pen)$ of eight pens. Eight pens (four with males and four with females) selected randomly were assigned to a control diet containing 5% tallow and the remaining eight pens to a diet containing 5% canola oil. The average daily weight gain, daily feed intake and feed efficiency for concentrates without roughages over a 5-month feeding period were not different (P>0.05) between the two diet groups. Fatty acid profile in the muscle fat showed that the 0-3 fatty acid (a-linolenic acid) content in horses fed diet containing 5% canola oil was approximately two times (P<0.01) that in horses fed tallow. The increased (P<0.01) 0-3 fatty acid content in pigs and horses fed canola oil decreased the ratio of n-6 to n-3 fatty acids compared to the control, indicating a significant improvement in pork and horsemeat fatty acid profile for health benefit. Our study demonstrated that feeding diet containing 5% canola oil may help produce pork and horsemeat with more health benefit, increasing their $\alpha-linolenic$ acid content without deleterious effects on growth of pigs and horses.

A 6-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of six different dietary animal protein sources on growth and body composition of olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus in recirculating system. White fish meal (WFM), flounder muscle (FLM), carp muscle (CM), blood meal (BM), squid liver powder (SLP) and casein (CA) were used as the main animal protein sources in the six experimental diets. Fish averaging $2.9\pm0.03g$ $(mean\pm SD)$ were distributed to each aquarium as a group of 15 fish and were fed one of the six experimental diets to each treatment of triplicate groups. After 6-week of the feeding trial, fish fed white fish meal (WFM) and flounder muscle (FLM) diets showed a significant higher weight gain $(WG\%)$ (P<0.05) than those of fish fed the CM, BM, SLP and CA diets. Fish fed BM diet showed the lowest WG among all the dietary treatments. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) showed the similar trend as WG. Hematocrit and hemoglobin were not affected by the dietary treatments. Fish fed the FLM and CM diets showed significant higher survival rate than those of fish fed BM diets, and there was no significant difference in survival of fish fed WFM, FLM, CM, SLP and CA diets. These results indicated that WFM and FLM are the best dietary protein sources tested in olive flounder.

The present study was conducted to examine the effects of dietary protein (20, 22, 24%) with a constant protein-to-energy ratio on clenbuterol-induced performance in broilers. The protein-to-energy ratio was based on adequate level (22% protein, 3,100 kcal of energy). Female broiler chickens were used for a $3{\times}2$ factorial arrangement and fed diets with or without 1 ppm clenbuterol from 14- to 32-days of age. Feed efficiency improved with increasing dietary protein level, regardless of clenbuterol treatment. The dietary clenbuterol increased weights of breast and leg muscles (gastrocnemius and peroneus longus), and clenbuterol markedly reduced protein content of leg muscles in chickens fed the 20% protein diet, but did not in chickens fed the 22 and 24% protein diets. Feeding the 24% protein diet with clenbuterol improved the protien accretion (peroneus longus) by 8.4%. Clenbuterol decreased DNA content and increased the protein/DNA ratio in breast muscle regardless of dietary protein intake. Clenbuterol had no effect on RNA content in both breast and leg muscles. The present results demonstrated that various protein levels which retain the same protein-to-energy ratio in the diet markedly alter the protein accretion induced by ${\beta}$-agonist in broilers.

The purpose of this study is to develop the algorithm which can control muscle power assist robot especially for elderly. Recently, wearable robots for power assistance are developed by many researchers, and its application fields are also variable such as for medical or military equipment. However, there are many technical barriers to develop the wearable robot. This study suggest a control method improving performance of a wearable robot system by using a EMG signal of major muscles and a force sensor signal as command signal of system. The result of the robot Prototype efficiency experiment, the case of Maximum Isometric motion it suggest 100% power of muscle, the man need only 66% of MVIC(Maximum Voluntary Isometric Contraction) to lift 5kg dumbbell without robot assist. However the man needs only 52% of MVIC to lift 5kg dumbbell with robot assist. Therefore 20% muscle power increased with robot assist. Also, we designed light weight robot mechanism that extract the command signal verified and drive the wanted motions.

The purpose of this study, the wearing conditions of functional pressure clothing applied with the thermotherapy device were determined by three types (NW, CW, TCW) and the difference in isokinetic strength, muscle activity around the forearm was investigated and the effects of products mixed with thermotherapy and pressure treatment were verified. Ten men in their 20s were selected as subjects, and all subjects were randomly assigned three wearing conditions, and wrist flexion/extension exercise was performed at 30° and 90° angular velocity in isokinetic equipment. Peak torque, average power, and EMG were measured during exercise in all conditions. For peak torque, CW was significantly highest at velocity of 30°/sec flexion. Average power showed no significant difference by condition. In the angular velocity of 90°/sec, flexion was significantly higher in CW and TCW than in NW. As a result, wearing clothes with pressure effect and heat effect can show high efficiency in high muscle strength development and fast contraction activity during low speed exercise, and it is thought that it can show improvement of exercise ability through efficient recruitment of motor unit.

Biotechnology will play critical role in improving animal productivity. Animal growth rate and muscle deposition potential can be greatly improved by the application of biotechnology and biotechnological products. Administration of recombinant somatotropin (ST) or other compounds such as IGF-1 and growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRPs) can enhance growth rate and carcass lean percentage. Gene transfer offers a powerful approach to manipulate endocrine system and metabolic pathways toward faster growth and better feed efficiency. Biotechnology is also extensively used for improving metabolism and activity of gut microorganisms for better nutrient digestibility. Knockout of growth-inhibiting genes such as myostatin results in considerable acceleration of body weight and muscle growth. Animal growth can also be improved by the use of gene therapy. Immunomodulation is another approach for efficient growth through controlling the activity of endogenous anabolic hormones. All the above aspects will be discussed in this review.
