This study examined the time course of recovery
from nerve injury on energy state assessed by phosphorus-31 magnetic
resonance spectroscopy and local circulation dynamics by fluorine-19
magnetic resonance spectroscopy in skeletal muscles of
rats. The hindlimb muscles that had undergone unilateral
sciatic nerve compression for 2 wk (CN) were compared with
sham-operated (SO) muscles and with muscles that had the compression
removed after 2 wk and were allowed to recover for 4 wk (R4) or for 6 wk (R6). The energy state and local circulation dynamics of CN muscles
were less than those of SO muscles (P < 0.01). The energy state of R4 muscles remained at levels similar to
CN muscles, whereas the local circulation dynamics improved but not
back to SO values. In R6 muscles, both parameters returned to SO
values. These results showed that the recovery processes of circulation
precede those of energy state in skeletal muscles.
