The changes in physiologic parameters by swim exercise duration were examined in five female well-trained Jeju crossbred riding horses that had riding experience of more than three years without swim training experience. The horses were performed with swim exercise for 10 min (60.0 m/min) once a day for 14 days. Physiologic characteristics and haematic parameters were measured before swimming, immediately after swimming, and after a 10 min rest at first day ($D_0$), 7 days ($D_7$), and 14 days ($D_{14}$) of training. After 14 days of swim training, heart rate (p<0.05), blood glucose (p<0.05), lactate concentration (p<0.001), packed cell volume (p<0.01), and hemoglobin (p<0.01) measured immediately after swim and after 10 min rest showed significant lower values than those of $D_0$. The results illustrate the benefits of swim training for riding horses and the need for the establishment of swimming routines of appropriate duration and intensity to maximize the advantages of swim training.

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor $\alpha$ (PPAR$\alpha$) is a nuclear transcription factor that plays a central role in lipid metabolism and obesity. Exercise also is a powerful modifier of the manifestations of the lipid metabolism and obesity in animal models and humans with obesity and metabolic syndrome. However, effects of exercise on lipid metabolism and obesity in normal-weight younger female subjects, having functional ovaries and not metabolic disease, remain unexplained. To explore the effects of exercise on the development of obesity and its molecular mechanism in high fat diet-fed female C57BL/6J mice, we experimented the effects of swim training on body weight, adipose tissue mass, serum lipid levels, morphological changes of adipocytes and the expression of PPAR$\alpha$ target genes involved in fat oxidation in skeletal muscle tissue of female C57BL/6J mice. Swim-trained mice had significantly decreased body weight, adipose tissue mass, serum triglycerides compared with female control mice. Histological studies showed that swim training significantly decreased the average size of adipoctyes in parametrial adipose tissue. Swim training did not affect the expression of PPAR$\alpha$ mRNA in skeletal muscle. Concomitantly, swim training did not increase mRNA levels of PPAR$\alpha$ target genes responsible for fatty acid $\beta$-oxidation, such as carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1, medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, enoyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, and thiolase in skeletal muscle. In conclusion, these results indicate that swim training regulates lipid metabolism and obesity in high fat diet fed-female mice although swim training did not increase mRNA levels of PPAR$\alpha$ target genes involved in fatty acid $\beta$-oxidation in skeletal muscle, suggesting that swim training may prevent obesity and improve fitness through other mechanisms in female with ovaries, not through the activation of skeletal muscle PPAR$\alpha$.

Background: A physically active lifestyle and regular exercise training incurs many health benefits. One recently recognized benefit of regular moderate exercise is stress reduction and immune enhancement. Thus, a physical stress such as exercise may act at any number of points in the complex sequence of events collectively termed the immune response. Although exercise causes many propound changes in parameters of immune function, the nature and magnitude of such changes rely on several factors including the immune parameters of interest; type, intensity, and duration of exercise; fitness level or exercise history of the subject; environmental factors such as ambient temperature and humidity. Methods: This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of different type of exercise on superoxide dismutase (SOD), neutrophils, and T lymphocytes of Sprague-Dawley rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups; a non-Trained group (NTG, n=6), a swim-Trained group (STG), and a treadmill-Trained group (TTG). The exercise regimen was designed in a treadmill (5 times/5 days/week) during 8-weeks for TTG, and swim training (5 times/5 days/week) during 8-weeks for STG, and the volume of exercise training was the same in both groups. Results: 8 weeks of regular swim and treadmill training significantly increased liver SOD concentration however, muscle SOD concentration was not statistically significant. In the level of neutrophils, TTG and STG showed significant difference, compared to NTG. TTG was the highest level of neutrophils. In the level of immune cell counts, there was significant difference among TTG, STG, and NTG both in the spleen and thymus. Conculsion: In conclusion, it can be stated that eight weeks swim and treadmill exercise training has beneficial effect in improving immune response and antioxidant defence capacity by augmenting immune cells and SOD activities of SD rats.

The purpose of this study was to investigate that the effect of dietary fatty acid composition on pro- and macro-glycogen utilization and resynthesis. The analyses were further extended for different muscle fibers (type I, type II, & type IIb) as well as tissues (i.e., liver & heart). Total one hundred sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were used, and rats were randomly allocated into four experimental groups: animals fed standard chow diet (n=40), animals fed saturated fatty acid diet (n=40), animals fed monounsaturated fatty acid (n=40), and animals fed polyunsaturated fatty acid (n=40). Animals in each groups were further divided into five subgroups: sacrificed at REST (n=8), sacrificed at immediately after 3 hr swim exercise (P-0HR, n=8), sacrificed at one hour after 3 hr swim exercise (P-1HR, n=8), sacrificed at four hour after 3 hr swim exercise (P-4HR, n=8), and sacrificed at twenty-four hour after 3 hr swim exercise (P-24HR, n=8). Soleus (type I), red gastrocnemius (type IIa), white gastrocnemius (type IIb), liver, and heart were dissected out at appropriated time point from all animals, and were used for analyses of pro- & macro-glycogen concentrations. After 8 weeks of dietary interventions, there was no significant difference in body mass in any of dietary conditions (p>.05). After 3 hr swim exercise, blood lactate level was higher compared to resting conditions in all groups, but it was returned to resting value after 1 hr rest (p<.05). Free fatty acid concentration was higher in all high fat fed groups(regardless of fatty acid composition) than CHOW consumed group. At rest, pro- & macro-glycogen concentration was not different from any of experimental groups (p>.05). Regardless of forms of glycogen, the highest level was observed in liver (p<.01), and most cases of supercompensation after 3hr exercise observed in this study were occurred in CHOW fed tissues. Except heart muscle, all tissues used in this study showed that pro- and macro-glycogen concentration was significantly decreased after 3 hr exercise. Based on these results, two conclusions were made: first, there is no different level of glycogen content in various tissues regardless of types of fatty acids consumed and second, the highest mobilization rate would be demonstrated from CHOW fed animals compare to animals that consumed any kinds of fatty acid diet if prolonged exercise is applied.

본 연구는 비슷한 강도의 규칙적인 수영과 트레드밀 훈련이 흰쥐의 체중, 지방량, 혈중 triglyceride, insulin, 및 랩틴 호르몬 변화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고 운동이 비만에 미치는 영향을 과학적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 규칙적인 훈련은 체중과 지방량을 감소시킬 뿐만이 아니라 혈중 triglyceride, insulin, 및 랩틴 호르몬을 감소시킴으로 비만 예방에 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 알려졌으며, 같은 기간의 비슷한 강도의 운동에서 수영 훈련 보다는 트레드밀 위에서 달리는 운동이 비만 예방에 더 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 추후 서로 다른 운동을 부여하여 운동생리학적인 변화를 비교할 뿐만이 아니라 이러한 원인을 규명하는 기전적인 연구가 진행되어져야 한다고 본다.

본 연구에서는 우선 운동 강도(저강도, 중강도, 고강도)를 달리하여 훈련한 서로 다른 그룹에서 운동 유발성 알러지 아나필락시스의 차이를 규명하고 운동강도에 따른 운동 유발성 알러지 질환의 기전을 규명하고자 본 연구를 실시 하였다. 본 실험을 위하여 군당 25마리씩 통제군(S; control sensitized, n=25), 저강도 훈련군(S30, n=25), 중강도 훈련군(S50, n=25) 및 고강도 훈련군(S80, n=25)으로 구분하여 수영훈련 강도별 알러지를 유도하였을 때, 알러지 아나필락시스를 조사하고 아울러 비장지수, 림프구의 수, 림프구 증식반응, 싸이토카인(IL-4, INF-${\gamma}$), 항체 및 복강과 비장의 ROS를 함께 측정하였다. 본 연구 결과, 일반 감작군에 비하여 운동 감작군에서 알러지가 더 잘 일어남을 확인하였고, 운동강도의 증가와도 밀접한 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 운동강도가 증가할수록 OVA반응에 대한 림프구 증가가 현저하게 일어나는 원인과 복강활성산소의 증가 및 알러지 면역반응에 중요한 역할을 담당하는 싸이토카인인 IL-4의 증가 때문인 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 특히, 운동강도의 증가에 따라 INF-${\gamma}$의 감소도 의미 있는 결과로 해석된다. 따라서 추후 운동 강도뿐만이 아니라 운동빈도에 따라서도 FDEIA의 변화에 대한 심도 있는 연구가 필요하다고 여겨진다.

본 연구는 수영운동이 백색지방조직의 혈관신생을 조절함으로써 비만을 개선하는지를 조사하였다. 고지방식이를 섭취한 암컷 쥐는 모의 수술 군(Sham), 난소절제 수술 군(OVX) 및 수영운동을 실시한 난소절제 군(OVX + Swim)으로 나뉘었다. Sham에 비해 OVX는 몸무게, 지방조직무게 및 지방세포의 크기가 증가 되었다. 그러나 OVX + Swim의 이러한 요소들(: 몸무게, 지방조직무게 및 지방세포의 크기)은 OVX에 비해 감소 되었다. Sham에 비해 OVX는 백색지방조직에서 혈관신생 촉진인자와 MMPs의 유전자 발현이 증가하였고, 혈관신생 억제인자들의 유전자 발현은 감소하였다. 그러나 OVX + Swim은 OVX에 비해 백색지방조직에서 혈관신생 촉진인자와 MMPs의 유전자 발현이 감소하였고, 혈관신생 억제인자들의 유전자 발현은 증가하였다. 이러한 연구결과들은 고지방식이를 섭취한 난소절제 암컷 쥐에서 수영운동이 백색지방조직의 혈관신생을 억제함으로써 비만을 개선한다는 것을 제시하였다.

Objectives : Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen (BCL) has been used for stamina fortification in Oriental Medicine for thousand years. The goal of the present study was to investigate the muscle antifatigue effect of BCL. Methods : The mice were divided into three groups. The control group was allowed to swim for 10 minutes without BCL infusion. For the preventive effect of BCL, another group referred to BCL-1 was fed with BCL an hour before the swimming exercise. BCL-2 group for the reversion effect was forced to swim for 10 minutes at first, then fed with BCL followed by half an hour rest and another 10 minute swimming exercise. All the serum samples collected by heart puncture were used for the measuring biochemical factors such as LDH, CPK, glucose, lactate, triglycerides and total cholesterol. Results : In the BCL-2 group, lactate and LDH were significantly reduced compared to the control. BCL infusion during the exercise was effective in metabolizing LDH, reducing the conversion ratio of pyruvate into lactate. In the BCL-1 group, it was not effective in antifatigue function. The level of glucose was significantly reduced in BCL-1 group compared to the control. When the BCL was infused before the exercise, it is assumed that glycogenolysis seen during the exercise was prevented. When the BCL was infused during the exercise, the triglycerides and total cholesterol were increased significantly compared to the control. BCL seems to cause the increase of lipolysis to utilize the fat as an energy source. Unlike other parameters, CPK did not show any changes from BCL infusion. Conclusions : Based on the above results, BCL is found to be involved in energy metabolism. Further studies are needed to find out the underlying mechanism of BCL for its effect on stamina fortification.

In an effort to obtain preventive, diagnostic and therpeutic medical and exercise training information of rheumatoid arthritis as well as to provide pertinent data to be used in development of exercise program for the management of rheumatoid arthritis, this study was conducted by using literature review. Because RA is a disease that involves both joints and muscles, its activity in the different functional classes influences the patient's ability to exercise. A patient in Functional Class 1 may perform any type of exercise because the disease involvement has not yet reached major importance. Exceptions may include hard physical exercise, running, and individual racket sports. In almost all cases, bicycle exercise is possible. Patients in Functional Class 2 and a few in Class 3 can perform most types of exercise (especially cycling, walking, heated pool exercise and even jogging) in low activity phases of RA. Although a few patients in Functional Class 3 can walk, jog, and perform similar types of exercise, most persons in this class can swim or exercise on a bicycle if the type of exercise, its intensity, and its range of motion are modified according to the patient's anatomic and pathologic conditions. Most patients in Functional Class 4 are not able to carry out complicated movements. We conclude that physical training for persons with RA has physical, psychological, and social consequences that are clearly beneficial. We recommend training be one part of the many involved in the complicated treatment of RA.
