Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage Biomarkers

Blood samples were taken from the forearm vein before exercise, and 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h after exercise to obtain blood CK and Mb levels. A vacutainer system was used for the sampling, and 5 mL of blood was taken for each sampling. The sample contained in a vacutainer SST was centrifuged at 2500–3000 rpm for 10–15 min. Then, the sample was tested for CK by placing the reagent (Vitros 750, Johnson and Johnson, Phoenix, AZ, USA) in an automated blood analyzer (Ortho Johnson Vitros DT60 II, Johnson and Johnson, Phoenix, AZ, USA). The sample was tested for Mb by placing the reagent (LIAISON Myoglobin, DiaSorin, Saluggia, Italy) in clinical test equipment (LIAISON, DiaSorin, Saluggia, Italy).

Pancreatic Tissue and Blood Analysis

The study was terminated at the end of 12 weeks post treatment by slaughtering through electrical stunning and exsanguination and the entire pancreas was obtained and weighed after towel cleaning. Each pancreas was incised to obtain 3 samples (1 cm3 in size) from the anterior (close to duodenum), median (close to superior mesenteric artery) and the most posterior sites. The obtained tissues were fixed in 10% formalin immediately. All of the blood samples were centrifuged and the obtained plasma was stored in vials at −80℃ until analysis.
The blood clinical profile was analysed using a VITROS DT60II and a DTSC II (Johnson & Johnson Clinical Diagnostics, Inc., USA), and glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, urea nitrogen and creatinine measurements were performed. The plasma insulin and fructosamine concentrations were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits designed for pig insulin (Shibayagi, Japan) and fructosamine (EIAab® Science, Co., Ltd., China). The homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) was calculated using the equation HOMA-IR=fasting blood insulin (µIU/mL)×fasting blood glucose (mmol/L)/22.5 [16 (link)].

Blood samples from the jugular vein were centrifuged 4 hours after collection at 3,000× g for 15 minutes (Sorvall® ST 16; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) to obtain blood serum. The activity of alanine aminotransaminase, asparagine aminotransaminase, lactate dehydrogenase, and alkaline phosphatase and the levels of glucose and blood urea nitrogen were examined using the dry chemistry equipment Vitros® DT 60 II (Johnson & Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ, USA) with Manuals Maintenance and Troubleshooting (Johnson & Johnson).

Animals were anesthetized using intramuscular 20 mg/kg Zoletil. Blood samples were collected through intracardiac puncture before sacrifice and centrifuged at 1500× g, 4 °C, for 10 min to obtain serum. Serum aliquots were stored at −80 °C. Serum levels of AST and ALT were quantified using a VITROS DT60II dry chemistry analyzer (Johnson & Johnson, Nuevo Brunswick, NJ, USA).

Blood samples were centrifuged (3000 rpm, 15 min; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and asparagine aminotransferase (AST) were measured. ALT and AST were examined using the Vitros DT 60 II chemistry system (Johnson and Johnson, New Brunswick, NJ, USA).

Blood samples were taken from the antecubital vein using a collection tube (BD Vacutainer, BD Plymouth, Plymouth, UK) and were stored at room temperature for 20 min, in orderto obtainserum. They were then centrifuged at 3,000 rpm for 10 min, and the serum was pipetted and separated into a 1.5-mL microtube (MCT-150-C, Axygen, a subsidary of Corning, New York, NY, USA). Each sample was stored at −80°C for analysis of CK activity using an automated analyzer (Vitros DT60 II, Johnson & Johnson, Minneapolis, MN, USA).

These indicators included BPs, cholesterol, and triglycerides. An Omincron model HEM-712C Automatic Inflation BP Monitor (Omincron, Philadelphia, PA) assessed systolic and diastolic BPs. Following a 5-minute rest period, 3 measurements were taken using the participant’s right arm and averaged. Fasting plasma concentrations of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides were determined by enzymatic methods with a semi-automated chemistry analyzer (Vitros DT60 II; Johnson & Johnson, Rochester, NY).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
