Outline of Final Research Achievements

We continued the interval walking training, but for middle-aged and elderly people who have high symptoms of lifestyle-related diseases, we have them carry out the interval walking training for one month, and during that time, the condition to take 5-aminolevulinic acid (It was divided into two groups, ALA condition) and placebo condition. The purpose was to examine the effects on physical fitness, lifestyle-related disease-related indicators, and methylation of inflammation-related genes.
From this result, it was found that ALA supplementation improved IWT achievement, but the effect on physical fitness and lifestyle-related disease-related indicators will be further analyzed in the future.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

我々は、加齢に伴う体力(筋力)の低下が生活習慣病の根本原因であることを示唆する結果を得た。さらに健常中高年者を対象に、1週間のインターバル速歩+5-アミノレブリン酸摂取がミトコンドリア機能を改善することを明らかにした。そこで、生活習慣病「患者」を対象に、より長期間(1ヶ月間)の「インターバル速歩」+5-アミノレブリン酸摂取の体力、生活習慣病に及ぼす効果を個体・遺伝子レベルで検証する。これらが明らかになれば、高齢者の生活習慣病予防、介護予防の為の運動処方の導入の一助となると考える。さらにはその結果、高齢者医療費を削減でき、我が国存亡の危機の解決策になるのではないかと考える。
