摘要
This study was undertaken to determine the protective effects of treadmill training on brain ischemic lesions caused by middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in male rats. Rats were divided into four groups: control, 1-week treadmill pre-training, 2-week treadmill pre-training, and 4-week treadmill pre-training. Cerebral infarction was induced by MCA occlusion for 60 min, followed by reperfusion. After 24 h, rats were killed and brain slices were then stained to assess lesion size. Treadmill training at least for 2 weeks can reduce the infarction size and edema caused by MCA occlusion (P<0.01). The present study provides evidence that treadmill training reduces ischemic brain damage in an animal model of cerebral ischemia.
