Study Title | Analyzing Metabolic Alterations in the Gut, Blood, and Brain of Mice Induced by Running Exercise Through Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry. |
Study Summary | Studying the metabolic impact of running exercise on the gut, blood, and specific brain regions like the hippocampus and brainstem is crucial for comprehending the broader health effects of physical activity. In our six-week study, we utilized a mouse model (C57BL/6 genotype) to investigate these metabolic changes. Employing gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry followed by metabolomics for a comprehensive analysis, our approach offers insights into how exercise influences metabolic processes, including brain function. Our findings hold the potential to shape more effective exercise strategies for enhancing overall health and cognitive function. |

Treatment Summary: | To evaluate our hypothesis that running exercise reshapes gut microbiota diversity that balances TRP metabolism in the gut, we used an established model of voluntary running exercise in 20-week-old male mice (C57BL/6J, Jackson Lab) housed individually in a standard cage in temperature-controlled (21°C) quarters with a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle. Animals were given water and food (Purina Chow) ad libitum as previously described (Chorna et al., 2013). Briefly, mice were randomized into two groups, sedentary control (n=12) and running experimental (n=12), housed with free access to a wireless running wheel (Med Associates) for six weeks. For the sedentary group, the wheels were locked in the experiment. Therefore, this group of mice could not perform running exercises. Exercise activities of the running group were recorded for each animal for the investigation to ensure that each mouse was physically active. The recording was conducted using an automatic counter and Med Associates software. |
