| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Effects of creatine levels on the contractile and metabolic properties in skeletal muscles were studied in rats. As the results, shift toward slow-twich type was induced by beta-GPA feeding even in soleus, although such trend was prominent in extensor digitorum longus. Further, inhibition of carbohydrate metabolism and simulation of lipid utilization were induced. It was indicated that oxydative capacity of skeletal muscles was increased following chronic depetion of creatine, although daily muscle activities were less, on the contrary. These observations gave important suggestions not only for basic science, but also for the exercise training areas. However, beneficial effects by treatment using creatine were not observed.
