| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We tested whether the acid-induced facilitation of the mechanical response of thin muscle afferents was suppressed by chondroitin sulfate (CS) using the single-fiber recording technique. Ramp mechanical stimulus was applied to the receptive field. Mechanical threshold and the response magnitude of thin muscle afferents were significantly lowered and increased, respectively, by exposing the receptive field to pH 6.2 buffer solution. After the injection of CS, these acid-induced changes were significantly reduced. No significant difference in attenuation was detected between CS concentrations used. These results suggest that a proteoglycan is responsible for the modulation in acid-induced sensitization of thin muscle afferents.
These results also suggest that CS has potential in working against exaggeration of exercise pressor reflex in acidosis. However, in a human study, we could not find any significant effects of oral intake of CS on blood pressure response to exercise.
