title: Changes in succinate dehydrogenase activity in various parts of the brain during combined exposure to vibration and licorice root.
abstract: Data obtained in the studies reported here provide evidence that during exposure to vibration for 30 days, feeding with licorice root significantly increases the activity of the anaerobic respiration enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) in the cerebral cortex, while activity in the subcortex, conversely, decreases. Combined treatment for 30 days with licorice root and vibration after a preliminary 30-day period of feeding with licorice root resulted in high SDH activity in all the structures studied, improving brain energy supply and metabolism and ameliorating the effect of vibration.
