The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise (AE) training and/or oyster peptide (OP) supplementation on the formation of late-onset hypogonadism (LOH). AE training and/or OP supplement was performed during Cytoxan (CTX)-induced LOH formation in male SD rats for 6 consecutive weeks. Low dose of CTX could decrease mating times, the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), total testosterone (TT), free testosterone (FT) in serum and TT, androgen receptor (AR), androgen binding protein (ABP), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in testicle, but increase capture latency, mating latency, and malondialdehyde, and downregulate the mRNA expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR), P450 cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme (P450scc), and StAR-related lipid transfer domain 7 (StARD7) in testicle. Every change was altered by AE training combined with OP supplement significantly, except for serum LH. Moreover, the effect of AE training combined with OP supplement was better than that of AE training on serum TT, FSH, testicular TT, mating latency, capture times, and mating times. AE training combined with OP supplement during CTX-induced LOH formation can prevent the LOH development by enhancing pituitary-gonads axis's function and reducing testicular oxidative stress to promote testosterone synthesis and spermatogenesis.
本研究旨在探讨有氧运动 (AE) 训练和/或牡蛎肽 (OP) 补充对迟发性性腺功能减退症 (LOH) 形成的影响。在雄性 SD 大鼠环磷酰胺 (CTX) 诱导的 LOH 形成期间,进行 AE 训练和/或 OP 补充,连续 6 周。低剂量 CTX 可降低交配次数、血清黄体生成素 (LH)、总睾酮 (TT)、游离睾酮 (FT) 和睾丸 TT、雄激素受体 (AR)、雄激素结合蛋白 (ABP) 和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 (GSH-Px) 的水平,但增加潜伏期、交配潜伏期和丙二醛,并下调睾丸类固醇急性调节蛋白 (StAR)、P450 胆固醇侧链裂解酶 (P450scc) 和 StAR 相关脂质转移结构域 7 (StARD7) 的 mRNA 表达。除血清 LH 外,AE 训练联合 OP 补充可显著改变每一个变化。此外,AE 训练联合 OP 补充的效果优于 AE 训练对血清 TT、FSH、睾丸 TT、交配潜伏期、捕获次数和交配次数的影响。CTX 诱导的 LOH 形成期间,AE 训练联合 OP 补充可通过增强垂体-性腺轴的功能和降低睾丸氧化应激来预防 LOH 发展,从而促进睾酮合成和精子发生。
