Exercise-induced muscle protein leakage in the rat
Abstract
Differences in exercise-induced muscle damage between males and females were studied in an animal model by measuring the serum activities of specific muscle enzymes (creatine kinase and aspartate aminotransferase). It was found that rats showed muscle damage, comparable to that observed in humans after long-term exercise: males were much more affected than females. For example, the CK activity in male rats immediately after exercise was 335% of the resting value, but remained unchanged in females. To test the hypothesis that oestrogens may protect the female muscle membrane, female rats were ovariectomized at different stages of sexual maturity and exercised. A clear effect of this hormonal manipulation was observed: operated animals showed post-exercise CK elevations, depending of the age at the time of ovariectomy. Rats, ovariectomized before reaching sexual maturity, showed more damage than those ovariectomized after reaching sexual maturity.

Studies on muscle repair following exercise-induced injury highlight a sex-based difference in which higher levels of muscle creatine kinase (indicative of injury) are observed in male than in female rats following injury. Following OVX, levels of muscle creatine kinase in females are similar to levels in injured males.
“Studies on muscle repair following exercise-induced injury highlight a sex-based difference in which higher levels of muscle creatine kinase (indicative of injury) are observed in male than in female rats following injury. Following OVX, levels of muscle creatine kinase in females are similar to levels in injured males (3, 4, 8).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
