트레드밀 운동은 STZ 유도 당뇨 흰쥐 해마에서 MAPK/Erk1,2를 활성화시켜 NGF의 signaling을 촉진함으로서 인지기능을 개선시킨다
Treadmill exercise improves cognitive function and facilitates NGF signaling by activating MAPK/Erk1,2 in STZ-induced diabetic rat hippocampus
We investigated the effects of regular treadmill exercise for 6 weeks on NGF, tyrosine kinase receptor A(TrkA), p75 receptor, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3-K), mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2(Erk1/2), cyclic AMP response element-binding protein(CREB), and caspase-3 protein levels in the hippocampus of diabetic rats; we also assessed cell survival and cognitive function. Forty male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were divided into four groups: (1) normal control group(NCG: n = 10); (2) normal exercise group(NEG: n = 10); (3) diabetes control group(DCG: n = 10), and (4) diabetes exercise group(DEG: n = 10). Diabetes was induced by injecting streptozotocin(STZ; 55 mg/kg dissolved in 0.05 M citrate buffer, pH 4.5, i.p.) into rats. Rats were subjected to treadmill exercise for 5 days a week over 6 weeks, and the speed of the treadmill was gradually increased. In a passive avoidance test, the retention latency in the DCG was significantly shorter than that in the DEG(p < 0.05). Increased BrdU-labeled cells(p < 0.001) and significant increases in NGF and TrkA protein levels were observed in the hippocampal dentate gyrus in the NEG and DEG(p < 0.001 and p < 0.01, respectively). The p75 receptor protein level significantly increased in the NEG but decreased in the DCG(p < 0.001). The p-PI3-K and t-CREB protein levels significantly increased in the NEG(p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively), whereas t-Erk1/2 significantly decreased in the DCG(p < 0.01, p < 0.01, respectively). p-Erk1/2 and p-CREB protein levels significantly increased in the NEG and DEG(p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p < 0.01, respectively). Caspase-3 protein levels significantly increased in the DCG(p < 0.001). These results show that treadmill exercise improves cognitive function, increases the number of BrdU-labeled cells, and increases NGF levels, by the activation of the MAPK/Erk1/2 signaling pathway in the hippocampus of diabetic rats.

현대사회에 있어서 신체활동 연구의 주요 탐구과제는 ‘신체활동을 통한 교육’으로부터 ‘인간의 기본적인 움직임’을 목표로 하는 스포츠적인 움직임을 중심으로 한 생명 활동의 개념으로 급속히 변화되고 있는 추세이다. 이러한 환경변화에 대응하기 위하여 본학회는 ‘체육’적인 요소에서 ‘스포츠’적인 요소를 중심으로 한 학문적 정체성을 견고히 하고, 정기적인 학술지 발간과 학술활동을 통해 한국스포츠츠 문화의 발전과 학문적인 발전에 기여하는데 그 목적이 있다.
