The effect of indomethacin on the development of delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and localized sensitive region produced by eccentric exercise was examined in lightly anesthetized rabbits ( n=12, 2.0-3.3 kg). Repeated eccentric contractions of the gastrocnemius (GS) muscle were made by manual extensions during the tetanic contractions induced by electrical stimulation of the tibial nerve. The development of DOMS was confirmed by evoked reflex EMG in the biceps femoris (BF) muscle elicited by a quantitative manual extension of the GS muscle. The distribution of thresholds for the evoked BF EMG was measured by focal electrical stimulations of the GS muscle. Indomethacin (5 mg/kg in 2% sodium bicarbonate) or a vehicle was injected subcutaneously before, during, and after the exercise (a total of 60 mg/kg in 12 doses). A clear ropy taut band was palpated at the GS muscle on the second day after the exercise and a localized sensitive region for evoked BF EMG was detected at the depth of the fascia of the band in the exercise and vehicle groups, whereas no such phenomena appeared in the control and indomethacin groups. The palpable band and sensitive region disappeared on the seventh day after the exercise. That indomethacin inhibits the development of DOMS and the localized sensitive region suggests that a sensitization of polymodal-type nociceptors in the fascia mediated by prostaglandins is a possible mechanism for the development of DOMS and the localized sensitive region.
