Sex differences in the effectiveness of treadmill training in enhancing axon regeneration in injured peripheral nerves
AbstractExercise in the form of daily treadmill training results in significant enhancement of axon regeneration following peripheral nerve injury. Because androgens are also linked to enhanced axon regeneration, we wanted to investigate whether sex differences in the effect of treadmill training might exist. The common fibular nerves of thy‐1‐YFP‐H mice were cut and repaired with a graft of the same nerve from a strain‐matched wild type donor mouse. Animals were treated with one of two daily treadmill training paradigms: slow continuous walking for one hour or four higher intensity intervals of two minutes duration separated by five minute rest periods. Training was begun on the third day following nerve injury and continued five days per week for two weeks.
