چکیده

It has been shown that exercise is helpful against brain disorders. However, this may not be true for intense exercise (IE). Because it is easy to misadjust exercise intensity with physical condition, it is essential to know the effects of IE on cognitive process because it may have important consequences on people skills and work skills. We investigated the effects of IE on male C57Bl/6 mice, 3-mo-old, undergoing 10 days of intense and exhaustive running program on cognition and its possible relationship with brain oxidative stress. Cognition was evaluated by three different cognitive tests: passive avoidance task, contextual fear conditioning, and tone fear conditioning, performed 24 h after the last exercise session. Brain oxidative stress was evaluated by lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation. There was a remarkable memory reduction of exercised animals in comparison with the control group, associated with increase in the brain oxidative stress, with no alterations in shock sensitivity, locomotion and anxiety parameters. Concurrent vitamin C and E supplementation fully prevented the memory decrement induced by IE and partially recovered both the increased the brain lipid peroxidation and the protein oxidation. In conclusion, IE-induces a high index of brain oxidative stress and impairs memory in murine model that was prevented by vitamin C and E supplementation.

Morphofunctional alterations of the nonpregnant murine uterus in response to intense and exhaustive exercise are not related to oxidative stress.

Exercise is a common and noninvasive way to improve human health. In contrast, intense exercise causes damage in various tissues and is usually associated with metabolic changes in organs and tissues. Even though intense exercise is associated with dysfunctions in the female reproductive system, much less is known about the cellular mechanisms underlying its effects particularly on the nonpregn...

Effect of endurance training and cinnamon supplementation on post-exercise oxidative responses in rats

Despite the preventative and therapeutic effects of regular exercise, exhaustive exercise may be harmful to health. The present study aimed to determine the protective effect of endurance training and cinnamon bark extract (CBE) supplementation on oxidative responses induced by an exhaustive exercise schedule in rats. The rats were randomly divided into the following five groups of 6; control s...

The Antioxidant Role of Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) Extract Against Exhaustive Exercise-Induced Oxidative Stress in Young Athletes

Background: Strenuous acute exercise induces oxidative stress in the active muscles and circulation, However, consumption of products rich in antioxidants may potentially ameliorate these effects. Objective: The present investigation was conducted to determine the effect of Artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) extract on oxidative stress and antioxidant defense after aerobic exercise in young athle...

The Effects of Short-Term Selenium Supplementation on the Serum Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) and Glutathione (GSH) in Inactive Male Students after an Exhaustive Acute Aerobic Protocol

Introduction & purpose: Intense exercise damages tissues and disturb some cellular processes through oxidative stress and antioxidants can modulate intense exercise induced oxidative stress. The aim of current study is examining the effect of short-term selenium on serum hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and Glutathione (GSH) supplementation of inactive male university students, following a session of a...
