LASER PHORESIS OF THE SYNTHETIC ANALOGUE OF ACTH - NEUROPEPTIDE "SEMAX" IN SPORT
Introduction. The group of neuropeptides (opioid peptides, peptides of the brain and intestines, peptides of the nervous system, peptide hormones, vasoactive peptides, tachykinins, immunomodulatory peptides) has been widely used in clinical medicine in recent years. However, the use of neuropeptides in elite sports is not well covered in the periodical literature, as is the potentiation of their effects in various ways. The research purpose is to reveal the possibilities of potentiating the effects of the neuropeptide "Semax 0.1%" - its intranasal administration using laser phoresis in athletes. Material and research methods. There were 66 biathlon athletes, including candidates and masters of sports - 25 people who were at the pre - competition training camp in the Moscow region. The main group included 47 people, the control group - 19. To determine the stress resistance index, a software and hardware complex was used - the integrated monitoring system "Simona - 111". To study the psychosomatic status of athletes, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the SAN questionnaire (health, activity, mood), the index of intersystem coordination of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems (Hildebrandt index) were used. Testing was carried out according to the Spielberger - Khanin method with two blanks. Results and its discussion. In the control group (with intranasal application of the neuropeptide "Semax 0.1%") - the time to achieve subjective improvement was longer than in the experimental group (laser phoresis "Semax 0.1%"). This was shown by the assessment of the psychosomatic status before and after treatment, as well as the dynamics of the stress resistance index. Conclusion. The obtained efficiency of laser phoresis "Semax 0.1%" shows the need to improve the ways of delivery of neuropeptides to the internal environment of the body.
