Abstract

Corticosteroids are used as chemotherapeutic agents in many medical conditions, despite many common and potentially serious side effects. Supplementation with creatine monohydrate (CrM) can increase strength and lean body mass in humans and, therefore, may be a viable countermeasure to the side effects of corticosteroids. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine if CrM could prevent the attenuation of growth associated with corticosteroid administration. Forty male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomized to the following groups: control (CON, n = 10), 7 mg methylprednisolone·kg–1·week–1 (PRED, n = 10), 2% CrM in diet (CD, n = 10), or CrM and methylprednisolone (CD-PRED, n = 10). Animals received either a weekly sham injection (saline; CON and CD) or an injection of methylprednisolone (PRED and CD-PRED) for 6 weeks. At the completion of the 6th week, body composition was determined and skeletal muscles were collected. Weight gain was attenuated in PRED as compared with all other groups (P < 0.05). Muscle total creatine and phosphocreatine were greater in the extensor digitorum longus in the CD and CD-PRED groups as compared with the CON and PRED groups (P < 0.05); however, total creatine and phosphocreatine in the soleus were not different. Mean fiber area was greater in type II fibers from the extensor digitorum longus in the CD and CD-PRED groups as compared with the CON and PRED groups (P < 0.05); no treatment effect was seen in the soleus. In conclusion, CrM supplementation prevented the attenuation of growth associated with corticosteroids and also increased type II muscle fiber area. These results could have important clinical implications for several patient populations commonly treated with corticosteroids, and further work is required to determine the specific mechanisms underlying the physiological effects that were observed. Key words: nutritional supplement, steroid myopathy, muscle atrophy.

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.
