Abstract
Globin digest (GD) inhibits dietary hypertriglyceridemia; however, its effects on physical fatigue remain unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential anti-fatigue effects of GD. Repeated administration of GD and valine (Val)-Val-tyrosine (Tyr)-proline (Pro), a component of GD, for five days prevented the forced walking-induced decrease in locomotion. Furthermore, GD treatment reversed the forced walking-induced increase in blood lactate levels in mice and increased phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (p-AMPK) in the soleus muscle, suggesting that the anti-fatigue effect of GD involves AMPK activation in the soleus muscle through reduced blood lactate.
