Concomitant administration of resveratrol and resistance training ameliorates acrylamide-induced spatial learning impairment in rats

Objective: The present study examined effects of resistance training (RT) and resveratrol (RES) alone and together on acrylamide (AC)-induced memory impairment in rats.Materials and Methods: Animals were divided into ۶ groups: (۱) Control group which received normal saline intraperitoneally (ip) daily for ۸ weeks; (۲) Scopolamine (SCO) group which received SCO (۱ mg/kg/day, ip) for ۸ weeks; (۳) AC group which received AC (۵ mg/kg/day, ip) for ۸ weeks; (۴) AC + RT group which received AC (۵ mg/kg/day, ip) for ۸ weeks and performed RT (۵ days a week for ۸ weeks); (۵) AC + RES group which received AC (۵ mg/kg/day, ip) and RES (۱ mg/kg/day, ip) for ۸ weeks; and (۶) AC + RT + RES group which received AC (۵ mg/kg/day, ip) and RES (۱ mg/kg/day, ip) for ۸ weeks and performed RT (۵ days a week for ۸ weeks). On day ۵۳, animal training began in the Morris Water Maze (MWM) and ۲۴ hr after the last training, the probe test was performed.Results: RT and RES alone did not significantly affect escape latency or traveled distance increased by AC. However, concomitant RES and RT treatment significantly reduced these parameters compared to the AC group. Co-treatment with RES and RT also significantly increased the time spent in the target quadrant compared to the AC group. Lipid peroxidation was reduced in the AC+RES and AC+RT+RES groups compared to the AC group. Conclusion: It seems that daily co-treatment with RES and RT for ۸ weeks ameliorates the memory-impairing effects of AC.
