In this study, a compound sugar (CS) with different glycemic index sugars was formulated via hydrolysis characteristics and postprandial glycemic response, and the impact of CS and creatine emulsion on exercise-related fatigue in mice was investigated. Thirty-five C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups to supply different emulsions for 4 weeks: initial emulsion (Con), glucose emulsion (62 mg/10 g MW glucose; Glu), CS emulsion (62 mg/10 g MW compound sugar; CS), creatine emulsion (6 mg/10 g MW creatine; Cr), and CS and creatine emulsion (62 mg/10 g MW compound sugar, 6 mg/10 g MW creatine, CS-Cr). Then, the exhaustion time of weight-bearing swimming and forelimb grip strength were measured to evaluate the exercise capacity of mice, and some fatigue-related biochemical indexes of blood were determined. The results demonstrated that the ingestion of CS significantly reduced the peak of postprandial blood glucose levels and prolonged the energy supply of mice compared to ingesting an equal amount of glucose. Mouse exhaustion time was 1.22-fold longer in the CS group than in the glucose group. Additionally, the supplementation of CS increased the liver glycogen content and total antioxidant capacity of mice. Moreover, the combined supplementation of CS and creatine increased relative forelimb grip strength and decreased blood creatine kinase activity. The findings suggested that the intake of CS could enhance exercise capacity, and the combined supplementation of CS and creatine has a synergistic effect in improving performance.
在本研究中,通过水解特性和餐后血糖反应配制了一种含有不同血糖指数糖类的复合糖(CS),并研究了CS和肌酸乳剂对小鼠运动相关疲劳的影响。将35只C57BL/6小鼠随机分为五组,分别给予不同的乳剂,持续4周:初始乳剂(对照组)、葡萄糖乳剂(62毫克/10克体重的葡萄糖;Glu)、CS乳剂(62毫克/10克体重的复合糖;CS)、肌酸乳剂(6毫克/10克体重的肌酸;Cr)以及CS和肌酸乳剂(62毫克/10克体重的复合糖,6毫克/10克体重的肌酸,CS-Cr)。然后,测量负重游泳的疲劳时间和前肢握力以评估小鼠的运动能力,并测定一些与疲劳相关的血液生化指标。结果表明,与摄入等量葡萄糖相比,摄入CS可显著降低餐后血糖水平峰值,并延长小鼠的能量供应时间。CS组小鼠的疲劳时间比葡萄糖组延长了1.22倍。此外,补充CS可增加小鼠肝脏糖原含量和总抗氧化能力。而且,联合补充CS和肌酸可提高前肢相对握力并降低血液肌酸激酶活性。研究结果表明,摄入CS可增强运动能力,联合补充CS和肌酸在提高运动表现方面具有协同作用。
