Abstract
Testosterone deficiency in males is linked to various pathological conditions, including muscle and bone loss. This study evaluated the potential of different training modalities to counteract these losses in hypogonadal male rats. A total of 54 male Wistar rats underwent either castration (ORX, n = 18) or sham castration (n = 18), with 18 castrated rats engaging in uphill, level, or downhill interval treadmill training. Analyses were conducted at 4, 8, and 12 weeks postsurgery. Muscle force of the soleus muscle, muscle tissue samples, and bone characteristics were analyzed. No significant differences were observed in cortical bone characteristics. Castrated rats experienced decreased trabecular bone mineral density compared to sham-operated rats. However, 12 weeks of training increased trabecular bone mineral density, with no significant differences among groups. Muscle force measurements revealed decreased tetanic force in castrated rats at week 12, while uphill and downhill interval training restored force to sham group levels and led to muscle hypertrophy compared to ORX animals. Linear regression analyses showed a positive correlation between bone biomechanical characteristics and muscle force. The findings suggest that running exercise can prevent bone loss in osteoporosis, with similar bone restoration effects observed across different training modalities.

Abstract
The effects of treadmill interval training (IT) and free-fall exercise were evaluated on bone parameters including osteocyte related characteristics. Thirty-eight 4-month-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control (C) group and exercise groups: IT, 10 free-fall impacts/day with a 10-s (FF10) or 20-s interval between drops (FF20), 5 days/week, for 9 weeks. We assessed bone mineral density (BMD); microarchitecture by µCT; mechanical strength by a 3-point bending test; density and occupancy of the osteocyte lacunae by toluidine blue staining; osteocalcin and NTx systemic levels by ELISA; and bone tissue Sost messenger RNA (mRNA) expression by RT-PCR. NTx levels were significantly lower in exercise groups as compared with the C group. In exercise groups the Sost mRNA expression was significantly lower than in C. Tb.N was significantly higher for IT and FF20 compared with the C group. Tb.Sp was significantly lower in FF10 compared with the C group. Both IT and FF20 were associated with higher tibial lacunar density as compared with FF10. compared with FF10, IT fat mass was lower, while tibial osteocyte lacunae occupancy and systemic osteocalcin level were higher. All exercise modes were efficient in reducing bone resorption. Both IT and free-fall impact with appropriate recovery periods, which may be beneficial for bone health and osteocyte-related characteristics. Novelty: Interval training is beneficial for bone mineral density. Exercises decreased both bone resorption and inhibition of bone formation (Sost mRNA). Longer interval recovery time favors osteocyte lacunae density.

Abstract
For decades, the osteogenic effect from different physical activities on bone in rodents remained uncertain. This literature review presents for the first time the effects on five exercise models (treadmill running, wheel running, swimming, resistance training and vibration modes) in three different experimental rat groups (males, females, osteopenic) on bone quality. The bone parameters presented are bone mineral density, micro-architectural and mechanical properties, and osteoblast/osteocyte and osteoclast parameters. This review shows that physical activities have a positive effect (65% of the results) on bone status, but we clearly observed a difference amongst the different protocols. Even if treadmill running is the most used protocol, the resistance training constitutes the first exercise model in term of osteogenic effects (87% of the whole results obtained on this model). The less osteogenic model is the vibration mode procedure (31%). It clearly appears that the gender plays a role on the bone response to swimming and wheel running exercises. Besides, we did not observe negative results in the osteopenic population with impact training, wheel running and vibration activities. Moreover, about osteoblast/osteocyte parameters, we conclude that high impact and resistance exercise (such jumps and tower climbing) seems to increase bone formation more than running or aerobic exercise. Among the different protocols, literature has shown that the treadmill running procedure mainly induces osteogenic effects on the viability of the osteocyte lineage in both males and females or ovariectomized rats; running in voluntary wheels contributes to a negative effect on bone metabolism in older male models; whole-body vertical vibration is not an osteogenic exercise in female and ovariectomized rats; whereas swimming provides controversial results in female models. For osteoclast parameters only, running in a voluntary wheel for old males, the treadmill running program at high intensity in ovariectomized rats, and the swimming program in a specific ovariectomy condition have detrimental consequences.

Abstract
Bone microarchitecture, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone strength are affected positively by impact activities such as running; however, there are discrepancies in the magnitude of these effects. These inconsistencies are mainly a result of varying training protocols, analysis techniques, and whether or not the skeletal sites measured are weight bearing. This study’s purpose was to determine the effects of endurance running on sites that experience different weight bearing and load. Eight-week-old male Sprague–Dawley rats (n = 20) were randomly assigned to either a group with a progressive treadmill running protocol (25 m/min for 1 h, incline of 10%) or a nontrained control group for 8 weeks. The trabecular structure of the tibia, lumbar vertebra (L3), and mandible and the cortical structure at the tibia midpoint were measured using microcomputed tomography to quantify bone volume fraction (i.e., bone volume divided by total volume (BV/TV)), trabecular number (Tb.N), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular separation (Tb.Sp), and cortical thickness. BMD at the proximal tibia, lumbar vertebrae (L1–L3), and mandible was measured using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. The tibia midpoint strength was measured by 3-point bending using a materials testing system. Endurance running resulted in superior bone structure at the proximal tibia (12% greater BV/TV (p = 0.03), 14% greater Tb.N (p = 0.01), and 19% lower Tb.Sp (p = 0.05)) but not at other sites. Contrary to our hypothesis, mandible bone structure was altered after endurance training (8% lower BV/TV (p < 0.01) and 15% lower Tb.Th (p < 0.01)), which may be explained by a lower food intake, resulting in less mechanical loading from chewing. These results highlight the site-specific effects of loading on the skeleton.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the systemic biological effect of increased exercise on bone repair after stable fracture fixation. METHODS Two groups of SKH-1h mice were studied. Animals of the first group (n=36) were housed in cages supplied with a running wheel, while mice of the second group (n=37) were housed in standard cages for control. Using a closed femur fracture model, bone repair was analysed by histomorphometry and biomechanical testing at 2 and 5 weeks. At 2 weeks, we additionally evaluated the expression of the proliferation marker PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) and the angiogenic and osteogenic growth factor VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor). To standardise the mechanical conditions in the fracture gap, we used an intramedullary compression screw for stable fracture fixation. RESULTS Each mouse of the exercise group run a mean total distance of 23.5 km after 2 weeks and 104.3 km after 5 weeks. Histomorphometric analysis of the size and tissue composition of the callus could not reveal significant differences between mice undergoing exercise and controls. Accordingly, biomechanical testing showed a comparable torsional stiffness, peak rotation angle, and load at failure of the healing bones in the two groups. The expression of PCNA and VEGF did also not differ between mice of the exercise group and controls. CONCLUSION We conclude that increased exercise does not affect bone repair after stable fracture fixation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of exercise on angiogenesis during bone defect healing in mice. We evaluated angiogenesis during cranial bone defect healing by intravital fluorescence microscopy (IVM) at days 0-21. To characterize the type of bone repair, we performed additional histomorphometric analyses at days 3-15. IVM was conducted in mice, which were housed in cages supplied with running wheels (exercise group; n=7) and compared to IVM results of mice, which were housed in cages without running wheels (controls; n=7). In the exercise group, we additionally performed correlation analyses between results of the IVM and the running distance. IVM showed an accelerated decrease of bone defect area in the exercise group compared to the control group. This was associated with a significantly higher blood vessel diameter in animals undergoing exercise at days 9 and 12 and a significant correlation between running distance and blood vessel density at day 9 (r = 0.74). Histomorphometry showed osseous bridging of the defect at day 9. The newly woven bone was covered by a neo-periosteum containing those blood vessels, which were visible by IVM. We conclude that exercise accelerates bone defect healing and stimulates angiogenesis during bore repair.

Abstract
We investigated in female rats the effects on bone metabolism of a prolonged no-training period, subsequent to an isometric exercise program, performed during young adulthood and those of a long-term consumption of Humulus lupulus L-enriched diet (genistein 1.92 and daidzein 1.24 mg/kg diet) combined or not with isometric training. Forty-eight rats (4 weeks old) were randomly divided into 4 groups: trained (C-Tr) or nontrained rats (C-NTr) fed with control diet and trained (H-Tr) or nontrained rats (H-NTr) fed with Humulus lupulus L-enriched diet. The diets lasted 100 weeks. Training was followed over a 25-week period. Bone parameters were measured at week 100. Our results showed that no significant difference was observed among the 4 groups in uterine relative weight, calcium (Ca) intake, fecal Ca, urinary Ca excretion, net Ca absorption, plasma Ca, and bone Ca content. Calcium balance was significantly enhanced in H-NTr rats in comparison with C-NTr and C-Tr rats. Isometric strength training led to a significant increase in total bone mineral density (BMD), diaphyseal BMD, and osteocalcin-deoxypyridinoline ratio in C-Tr rats compared with the other groups. The main findings of the present study indicate that in female rats, a 25-week isometric strength training performed during young adulthood followed by a prolonged no-training period increases BMD values and osteocalcin-deoxypyridinoline ratio, whereas long-term consumption of Humulus lupulus L-enriched diet does not improve bone parameters. It suggests that bone gains induced by exercise do not decrease immediately after cessation of training and also confirms the importance of the practice of physical activity during puberty and young adulthood to maximize the achieved peak bone density.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to evaluate possible morphometric alterations in bone tissue and the calcium serum concentration in ovariectomized mice subjected to physical training. METHODS Fifty female mice, aged 90 days, divided into 5 groups (n=10): control (C), pseudo-operated sedentary (POS), pseudo-operated trained (POT), ovariectomized sedentary (OVS) and ovariectomized trained (OVT). Groups OVS and OVT were subjected to an ovariectomy, and groups POS and POT were subjected to a pseudo-surgery. Thirty days after the surgery, groups POT and OVT were subjected to physical training during 05 weeks in ergometer at a speed of 20 m/min. The other animals stayed sedentary at the same period. Afterwards the animals were sacrificed and had blood collected to realize calcium serum dosage and the right femurs were collected to realize a histomorphometric study. RESULTS The calcium serum concentration in group OVT was lower than the other groups (p<0.05). The mass of femurs in groups POT and OVT was higher than the group Control (p<0.05). The average density of the osteocytes was higher in group OVS (p<0.05). The average value of the area of the osteocytes showed difference only between groups POS and OVS (p<0.05). There were no differences in the bone length, nor in the osteocytes perimeter. CONCLUSION The physical training in part prevented the alterations in the bone tissue due to the ovariectomy and enabled an increase of the bone formation.

Abstract
There is evidence that estrogen plays an important role in skeletal tissue in males as well as females. We have reported that phytoestrogens, such as genistein, selectively act on bone and exhibit cooperative effects on bone mass when combined with exercise in ovariectomized mice. In this study, we examined whether both interventions exhibit cooperative effects on bone loss in androgen-deficient mice similar to those in estrogen-deficient mice. Male mice aged 7 wk were either sham operated or orchidectomized (ORX) and divided into six groups: 1) sham; 2) ORX; 3) ORX and treated with genistein (0.4 mg/day) subcutaneously; 4) ORX, exercised on a treadmill daily for 30 min/day at 12 m/min; 5) ORX, given genistein, and exercised (ORX+ExG); and 6) ORX and treated with 17beta-estradiol (E(2)). Four weeks after the intervention, seminal vesicle weight strikingly decreased in ORX mice, and it was not affected by administration of genistein or E(2). Bone mineral density of whole femur was significantly reduced by ORX, and bone loss was prevented by the combined intervention. Histomorphometric analysis showed that bone volume and trabecular thickness in the distal femoral cancellous bone were significantly lower in the ORX group than in the Sham group, and they were completely restored in the ORX+ExG group, as in the ORX with E(2) group. These results indicate that the combined intervention of moderate exercise and a low dose of genistein administration shows an additive effect in preventing bone loss in ORX mice similar to that in ovariectomized mice.

Abstract
To determine the effects of a tower climbing exercise on mass, strength, and local turnover of bone, 70 9-wk-old Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to seven groups: a baseline control and three groups of sham-operated sedentary, orchidectomized (ORX)-sedentary and ORX-exercise rats. Rats voluntarily climbed a 200-cm tower to drink water from a bottle set at the top. At 4 wk, the periosteal bone formation rate (BFR), moment of inertia, bone mineral content, bone mineral density, and bending load at the midfemur were maintained in ORX-exercise rats, whereas these parameters were reduced in ORX-sedentary rats. At 8 wk, the periosteal mineral apposition rate and BFR in ORX-exercise rats were significantly higher, whereas the parameters in ORX-sedentary rats did not differ compared with sham-sedentary rats. In ORX-exercise rats, the trabecular mineralizing surface, BFR, and bone volume of the lumbar vertebrae were maintained at the same levels as those in the sham-sedentary group, whereas the osteoclast surface decreased compared with the ORX-sedentary group. However, the climbing exercise did not affect bone mineral content, bone mineral density, or the compression load of the lumbar vertebrae. These results show that, in the midfemur, the voluntary climbing exercise maintained cortical bone mass and strength by stimulating periosteal bone formation and partially prevented ORX-induced trabecular bone loss, depressing the elevation of turnover. Interestingly, in ORX rats, the climbing exercise had the opposite effect on bone formation at the periosteal femoral cortical bone, where the exercise increased the bone formation compared with vertebral trabecular bone, where the exercise decreased it.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of intensive exercise on bone turnover (as reflected by bone resorption) in young elite female gymnasts. Forty-five healthy girls including 24 gymnasts (11.9+/-2 yr) and 21 controls (12.3+/-1.4 yr) were studied. Body weight, height, bone age and body composition were measured. Bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed at the whole body, lumbar vertebrae, hip and radius by means of DXA. Volumetric density (BMAD) was calculated. Bone velocity (SOS) and attenuation (BUA) were measured by QUS at the calcaneus. Urinary androstenedione (delta4), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), and CrossLaps (CTx) were measured. BMD and BMAD were significantly greater in the gymnasts at all sites except whole body. SOS was found significantly higher. Delta4 values were significantly lower in the gymnasts. The distribution of the subjects according to Tanner stages was not different between groups. CTx levels were significantly higher in the gymnasts (989.08+/-154.63 microg/mmol Cr.) vs controls (580.25+/-123.99 microg/mmol Cr., p=0.02). CTx values decreased from Tanner stage 1 to stage 4 in each group, the gymnasts' levels always being higher than those of the controls. In conclusion, gymnastics seems to stimulate bone resorption activity in highly-trained young females. The coexistence of bone hyperresorption and higher BMD in gymnasts suggests increased bone turnover resulting in increased bone density in these subjects.

Abstract
The ability of laboratory rats to adapt food intake to needs is well-known. The present study investigates changes in this adaptive behavior when animals grow old. A cohort of male and female Lou/c/jall rats was regularly submitted to an exercise throughout their life (6 consecutive days of moderate intensity training (3x15 min/day)). Caloric intake and macronutrients selection during exercise and post-exercise periods were compared to the pre-training period. During swimming, a decrease in both caloric intake and fat selection was observed and an increase in protein intake was specifically seen in female groups. However, males were unable to modify the diet composition (macronutrient rate) from 16 months of age, whereas females were able to do it until 24 months of age. The present results suggest a sex-dependent loss of capacity of adjusting feeding behavior to metabolic needs when animals grow old, may be due to a deterioration of the central control of food intake.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to investigate the different effects on muscle mass and cancellous (proximal tibial metaphysis [PTM]) and cortical (tibial shaft [TX]) bone mass of sham-operated and orchidectomized (ORX) male rats by making rats rise to erect bipedal stance for feeding. Specially designed raised cages (RC) were used so that the rats had to rise to erect bipedal stance to eat and drink for 12 weeks. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and peripheral quantitative computerized tomography (pQCT) were used to estimate the lean leg mass and bone mineral. Static and dynamic histomorphometry were performed on the triple-labeled undecalcified sections. We found that making the intact rats rise to erect bipedal stance for feeding increased muscle mass, cortical bone volume, and periosteal bone formation. Orchidectomy increased net losses of bone next to the marrow by increasing bone turnover. Making the ORX rats rise to erect bipedal stance increased muscle mass, partially prevented cancellous bone loss in the PTM, and prevented net cortical bone loss in TX induced by ORX by depressing cancellous and endocortical high bone turnover and stimulating periosteal bone formation. The bone-anabolic effects were achieved mainly in the first 4 weeks in the PTM and by 8 weeks in the TX. These findings suggested that making the rats rise to erect bipedal stance for feeding helped to increase muscle mass and cortical bone mass in the tibias of intact rats, increase muscle mass, and partially prevented cancellous and net cortical bone loss in ORX rats.

Abstract
This study was performed to observe the influence of moderate treadmill running on bone of middle-aged male rats. Seventy 15-month-old Wistar rats were used. Ten initial controls (IC) were killed on day 0. Among the 60 others, three groups of ten exercised rats (E) run 1 h/day, 6 days/week at 60% of their maximum aerobic capacity. On days 30, 60 and 90 of the training period, 20 rats, ten E and ten R (resting animals), were killed. Femoral failure stress never varied and was never different in E and R during the experiment. On day 90 whole body mineral content and mineral density were higher in E than R. Simultaneously, total, diaphyseal and metaphyseal femoral densities were lower in R than IC or than in E. No difference was observed between IC and E. In resting rats, urinary deoxypyridinoline excretion (a marker of bone resorption) increased between days 0 and 90, while it did not change in runners. These results indicate that in middle-aged rats, moderate running prevents decrease in bone mineral density, probably by inhibiting bone resorption.
