Lactate thresholds and role of nitric oxide in male rats performing a test with forced swimming to exhaustion
Abstract The present study assessed a complex of biochemical parameters at the anaerobic threshold (AT) in untrained male Wistar rats with different times to exhaustion (Tex) from swimming. The first group of rats was randomly divided into six subgroups and subjected to a swimming test to exhaustion...

description | Abstract The present study assessed a complex of biochemical parameters at the anaerobic threshold (AT) in untrained male Wistar rats with different times to exhaustion (Tex) from swimming. The first group of rats was randomly divided into six subgroups and subjected to a swimming test to exhaustion without a load or with a load of 2%–10% of body weight (BW). In the first group, we established that for untrained rats, the load of 4% BW in the swimming to exhaustion test was optimal for endurance assessment in comparison with other loads. The second group of rats went through a preliminary test with swimming to exhaustion at 4% BW and was then divided into two subgroups: long swimming time (LST, Tex > 240 min) and short swimming time (SST, Tex < 90 min). All rats of the second group performed, for 6 days, an experimental training protocol: swimming for 20 min each day with weight increasing each day. We established that the AT was 3% BW in SST rats and 5% BW in LST rats. The AT shifted to the right on the lactate curve in LST rats. Also, at the AT in the LST rats, we found significantly lower levels of blood lactate, cortisol, and NO. |
