본 연구는 8주간의 고강도 동계 훈련 시 L-아르기닌 섭취가 남자 대학 태권도 겨루기 선수의 경기수행능력, 젖산, 젖산탈수소효소 및 암모니아에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위해 L-아르기닌 섭취군 (n=14), 위약군(n=14)으로 구분하여 실시하였다. L-아르기닌 섭취군은 일일 아침 1 g, 점심 1 g, 저녁 1 g으로 총 3 g 섭취하였고 위약군은 말토덱스트린을 동일한 방법으로 섭취하였다. 8주간의 동계 훈련 프로그램은 70-90%HRR로 실시하였다. 측정된 자료의 L-아르기닌 섭취군과 위약군 간의 그룹 및 시기 간 상 호작용 효과는 two-way repeated measures ANOVA, 그룹 내 시기 간 차이는 paired t-test를 사용하였으 며, 그룹 간 차이는 independent t-test를 사용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 TAAA (Taekwondo-specific aerobic anaerobic agility) test를 통한 경기수행능력 중 평균 발차기 수에서 그룹×시기 간 상호작용 효과 가 나타났으며 그룹 간 주효과가 나타났다(p<.05). 또한, 발차기 피로지수에서 그룹×시기 간 상호작용 효 과가 나타났다(p<.05). 한편, 젖산에서는 시기 간 주효과가 나타났으며(p<.05) 젖산탈수소효소에서 상호작 용 효과 및 시기 간 주효과 나타났다(p<.05). 암모니아의 경우 그룹×시기 간 상호작용 효과가 나타났다 (p<.05). 이러한 결과는 남자 대학 태권도 겨루기 선수의 고강도 훈련 후 피로에 쉽게 노출되는 선수들에게 L-아르기닌 섭취로 인해 체내 피로 유발 물질들을 신속하게 제거하는 데 긍정적인 역할을 할 수 있다고 사료된다. 따라서 고강도 엘리트 태권도 겨루기 운동선수의 경기수행능력 향상과 피로 회복 방법으로 L- 아르기닌 섭취를 권장한다.

Developing preimplantation embryos require appropriate energy source and express stage specific gene expression for proper development. During early stage embryo development, major energy sources were pyruvate and lactate, after then glucos is used as a main source. Aquaporins (AQPs), also, is suggested as key molecules for blastocoels formation, and energy and meytabolic homeostasis. In this study, we analyzed the expression profiles of AQPs and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) which convet lacte to pyruvate and back. During development in vivo condition, the expression patterns can be classificed six clusters. AQP2,-3, -5, -8, -9, and -11 were detected at various stages but others were not. Cluster 1 is for an only express at blastocyst stage. Cluster 2 is for an incrase continuosuly from 4-cell stage. Cluster 3 is for a peak at both 4-cell and blastocyst stages. Cluster 4 is for a sharp decrease at morula stage. Cluster 5 is for a sharp decrase at 2-cell and morula stages. Cluster 6 is for continuous decrease after 4-cell stage. Cluster 7 is for no expression AQPs. LDHs expression has three patterns. First is for sharp decrase at both 2-cell stage and morula a stage. Second is for a continuous decrease from 4-cell stage. Third is for an existings until fertilized oocyte, 1-cell stage. Interestingly the expression profiles of AQPs and LDHs were totally changed by in vitro culture. All of the AQPs and LDHs were detected except AQP8. The leves of LDHA and LDHB were significantly decreased in vitro but those of LDHC and LDHD were increased. These results suggest that early stage embryos themselves adaptate to their conditon through modulation of the specific gene expression such as AQPs and LDHs.

It is suggested that carbohydrate metabolites may involve in the development of morula to blastocyst but many of the mechanisms are not unmasked. Two-cell stage embryos were collected and examined the effects of lactate on the development of blastocyst in vitro. The expression profiles of lactate dehydrognase (Ldh) genes and aquaporin (Aqp) genes were analyzed with RT-PCR. The successful development from morula to blastocyst was dependent on lactate concentrations. The expression profiles of Ldh genes were changed by the lactate concentration. Ldha was expressed in morula stage at 10 mM lactate, and in blastocyst stage at lactate free condition. Ldhb was expressed in morula stage at 10 mM and 20 mM lactate, and in blastocyst stage at 10 mM lactate. Aqp genes were also showed different expression patterns by the lactate concentrations. Aqp3 was expressed in hatching embryo at 120 hr post hCG administration (hph) which was cultured in BWW medium and lactate free condition. Aqp7 was expressed in hatching embryos at 120 hph which was cultured at 10 mM lactate condition. Also Aqp8 was expressed in hatching embryo at BWW and 20 mM lactate condition. Aqp9 was expressed in morula at BWW and 10 mM lactate condition, and in blastocyst at BWW. Based on these results, it is suggested that concentration of lactate in the medium and the level of lactate synthesis in embryo is critical factor for blastocoels formation. In addition it is suggested that LDH may involve the AQPs expression in embryos
