Title in Portuguese
Efeitos da melatonina pineal sobre a neurogênese de ratos submetidos ao treinamento físico aeróbio.
Keywords in Portuguese
Glândula pineal
Melatonina
Neurogênese
Treinamento físico
Abstract in Portuguese
Melatonina é um hormônio produzido principalmente pela pineal, possui caráter temporizador do meio interno, ação antioxidante, neuroprotetora e neurotrófica. Outro fator que age nos processos de neuroplasticidade é o exercício físico. Este é responsável por alterar parâmetros metabólicos nos animais, e trabalhos do nosso grupo demonstraram que tais adaptações metabólicas em ratos dependem da melatonina pineal. Diante disso investigamos se as adaptações neuroplásticas em ratos submetidos ao treinamento físico também estariam relacionadas à presença deste neuro-hormônio. Nossos resultados demonstram que a melatonina não influenciou a expressão gênica e quantificação proteica de indicadores da neurogênese, somente a realização do treinamento físico alterou alguns dos parâmetros avaliados. Os níveis de corticosterona se mostraram alterados nos animais pinealectomizados. A avaliação da expressão gênica circadiana com oito pontos ao longo das 24 horas revelou o comportamento variável do mRNA de algumas proteínas atreladas ao processo de plasticidade hipocampal

Abstract in English
Melatonin is a hormone produced mainly by pineal gland, has timer character of the internal medium, antioxidant action, neuroprotective and neurotrophic. Another factor that acts in the processes of neuroplasticity is physical exercise. This is liable to change metabolic parameters in animals, and work by our group have shown that such metabolic adaptations in rats depend on pineal melatonin. Thus we investigated whether the neuroplastic adaptations in rats submitted to physical training also would be related to the presence of this neurohormone. Our results demonstrate that the melatonin did not influence the gene expression and protein quantification of indicators of neurogenesis, only the execution of the physical training has changed some of the parameters evaluated. The levels of corticosterone were changed in pinealectomized animals. The assessment of gene expression circadian with eight points along the 24 hours showed the variable behavior of the mRNA of some proteins linked to the process of hippocampal plasticity.
