SiBaoChongCao (SBCC) is a functional food product containing fermentation of belonging to the genus. SBCC at 1 and 2 g kg for 20 days exhibited anti-fatigue activities such as increasing exhaustive swimming and running time of mice and increasing the strength of muscle. The increased muscle endurance in SBCC-treated mice might be related to enhancement of muscle cell growth and differentiation and improvement of muscle response to exercise training, as shown by an increase in muscle cross-sectional area and elevation of MHC, MyoD, MyoG and PGC-1α levels. And, SBCC at 1.5 g kg could ameliorate cancer-related cachexia such as ameliorating decrease in body temperature and inhibiting fat tissue atrophy. The anti-cachexia effects of SBCC might be related to inhibition of inflammatory cytokine IL-6 secretion and suppression of over-lipolysis and lipid over-utilization through inhibiting the activation of AMPK and p38 MAPK and down-regulating the level of UCP1.
四孢虫草(SBCC)是一种功能性食品,含有属于虫草属的发酵物。SBCC以1克/千克和2克/千克的剂量持续20天给药,表现出抗疲劳活性,如延长小鼠的力竭游泳和跑步时间以及增强肌肉力量。SBCC处理的小鼠肌肉耐力增加可能与肌肉细胞生长和分化的增强以及肌肉对运动训练反应的改善有关,这表现为肌肉横截面积的增加以及MHC、MyoD、MyoG和PGC-1α水平的升高。此外,1.5克/千克的SBCC可以改善癌症相关的恶病质,如改善体温下降和抑制脂肪组织萎缩。SBCC的抗恶病质作用可能与抑制炎性细胞因子IL-6的分泌以及通过抑制AMPK和p38 MAPK的激活和下调UCP1的水平来抑制过度脂肪分解和脂质过度利用有关。
