Mild hyperbaric oxygen does not attenuate mitochondrial decrease induced by detraining in mice.

ABSTRACT: Mild hyperbaric oxygen (MHO) attenuates the muscle atrophy caused by muscle disuse. Training cessation results in the partial or complete loss of training-induced adaptations, including mitochondrial enzyme activities. The present study aimed to determine whether exposure to MHO after running training attenuated negative adaptation induced by detraining. We allocated eight-week-old mice into training (Tr), detraining after the training period (DeTr), and detraining + mild hyperbaric oxygen (DeTr + MHO, 1.3 atm absolute with 38 % oxygen) groups. Mice underwent voluntary wheel running for four weeks, followed by a two-week detraining period under normal or MHO conditions. The soleus muscle weight (mg/g BW) decreased by approximately 30 % in the DeTr and DeTr + MHO groups compared to the Tr g
