Abstract

The objective was to investigate the renal response to ingestion of maltodextrin and aerobic or anaerobic training in rats. Materials and methodsThe protocol consisted of 8 weeks of swimming aerobic (5% overload) or anaerobic (10% overload). During 37 days, the animals were supplemented by gavage with a daily dose of 0.48g.Kg−1 maltodextrin dissolved in water or with pure water, before training. ResultsThe anaerobic training caused increases in concentrations of uric acid, creatinine and total protein and reduction in renal glycogen in kidney. The maltodextrin caused an increase in renal glycogen. ConclusionMaltodextrin and anaerobic training provided changes in parameters of renal function in response of this organ to these external stimuli.
