摘要:
Effects of 2- or 4-month bedrest in -6 degrees head-down tilt position with or without countermeasures on the histochemical properties of fiber phenotype and cross-sectional area (CSA) were studied in human soleus, The CSAs in slow fibers decreased similar to 32% during 4-month bedrest, This reduction was normalized after 4-month recovery. Although the reduction of percent slow fibers was not significant statistically, the percent intermediate fibers was significantly elevated 4 months after bedrest, Such shift in fiber type was not normalized following 1-month recovery. Effects of wearing an anti-g Penguin suit which has a modest, but continuous resistance at the knee and ankle (Penguin-1) or with knee resistance without loading on the ankle (Penguin-2) for 10 consecutive hours daily were also investigated during similar to 2 months of bedrest, The subjects performed knee extension and flexion for the last 15 min of each hour while in a supine position in bed. Bedrest-induced fiber atrophy was prevented in the Penguin-1 group but not the Penguin-2 group. Transformation of fiber type was not prevented in either Penguin suit group. It is suggested that long-term bedrest causes an atrophy and a shift of fiber phenotype toward fast-twitch type in human soleus, Data also indicated that loading on the muscle is an effective countermeasure for prevention of fiber atrophy but not fiber-type transformation.
