Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of treadmill exercise on cerebellar astrocyte activation and purkinje cells, neurotrophic factors expression, and motor function in aged rats. Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were used and divided into three groups; (1) Young Control Group (YCG; 3months aged, n=10); (2) Old Control Group; (OCG; 24months aged, n=10); (3) Old Exercise Group (OEG; 24months aged, n=10). Rats were then subjected to treadmill exercise for 5 days per week for 12 weeks during which time the speed of the treadmill was gradually increased. The results revealed that in the rota-rod test, motor function was significantly increased in the OEG compared to the OCG (p<.05), and similarly YCG. Number of calbindin-positive purkinje cell expression significantly increased in the cerebellar vermis of OEG compared to the OCG (p<.05), and similarly YCG. GFAP-, NMDAR-positive cell expression significantly increased in the OEG (respectively p<.001), GFAP and GLAST protein levels were significantly increased in the cerebellum of OEG compared to the OCG (p<.05, p<.001) and similarly YCG. BDNF and NGF protein levels were highest in the YCG, increased in the OEG compared to OCG (p<.001, p<.05). These result show that regular exercise not only improved astrocyte activation, but also increased purkinje cell expression in the cerebellum and motor function by increasing the neurotrophic factors in aged rats.

본 연구는 12주간의 트레드밀 운동이 노화 흰쥐 소뇌의 성상세포 활성과 퍼킨제 세포 발현 및 운동기능 변화에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. Sprague-Dawley(SD) 흰쥐를 실험처치에 따라 (1)젊은 통제집단 (Young Control Group; YCG; 3months aged; n=10), (2) 노화 통제집단 (Old Control Group; OCG; 24months aged; n=10), (3) 노화 운동집단 (Old Exercise Group; OEG; 24months aged; n=10)으로 구분한 후 OEG는 트레드밀 운동을 시간과 강도를 점증적으로 증가하여 12주간, 주 5회 실시하였다. 실험결과 rota-rod 검사에서 운동기능이 OCG에 비해 OEG에서 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며(p<.05) 그 수준은 YCG와 유사한 것으로 나타났다. calbindin-양성 퍼킨제 세포의 발현도 OCG에 비해 OEG의 소뇌 충부에서 증가하였으며(p<.05), 그 수준은 YCG와 유사하였다. GFAP-, NMDAR-양성세포의 발현도 OEG에서 증가하였다(각각 p<.001). GFAP, GLAST 단백질 수준은 OCG에 비해 OEG에서 증가하였으며(p<.05, p<.001) 그 수준은 YCG와 유사하였다. BDNF, NGF 수준은 YCG에서 가장 높았으며 OCG에 비해 OEG에서 증가하는 것으로 나타났다(p<.001, p<.05). 이상의 결과를 종합하면 규칙적인 운동은 성상세포의 활성을 향상시킬 뿐만 아니라 신경영양인자의 증가를 통하여 소뇌의 퍼킨제 세포 발현과 운동기능을 개선시키는 것으로 판단된다.
