چکیده
Background: Moderate exercise training has innumerable benefits on physical function, cognition and mental health. However, the effects of exercise training on anxiety reduction that results in increased physical activity is much less appreciated. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of moderate exercise training on anxiety-related behaviors that result in increased physical activity. Methods: Old (17 months) female mice (n=6), C57B6 were allocated to either a sedentary or a running group that underwent 12 weeks of treadmill running (20 minutes/day, 6 days/week). Anxiety-related behavior was assessed using an

Influence of chronic moderate sleep restriction and exercise training on anxiety, spatial memory, and associated neurobiological measures in mice.
Sleep deprivation can have deleterious effects on cognitive function and mental health. Moderate exercise training has myriad beneficial effects on cognition and mental health. However, physiological and behavioral effects of chronic moderate sleep restriction and its interaction with common activities, such as moderate exercise training, have received little investigation. The aims of this stu...
متن کاملComparing the Effects of 4 and 12 Weeks of Aerobic Training on Tumor Volume in Female Mice with Breast Cancer
Introduction: Tumor size is a contributing factor in cancer prognosis. On the other hand, regular exercise may play an important role in inhibiting tumor growth in breast cancer. Because of the key role of tumor volume in tumor metastasis, the aim of the present study was to compare the effects of a 4-week and a 12-week aerobic training on tumor volume in female mice with breast cancer. Methods...
متن کاملEffect of aerobic exercise and fish oil supplements on plasma levels of inflammatory indexes in mice
Background: Exercise has positive and negative effects on immune system. Herein, we would like to investigate the effects of incremental aerobic training and fish oil supplementation on the plasma levels of CRP, CPK and IL-17 in trained mice. One of the major roles of immune system is to produce soluble or cellular components that provide the immunity against inflammatory agent. The purpo...
متن کاملThe Effect of 4 Weeks of Aerobic Training on Spatial Learning, Memory Performance and Mitochondrial Dynamics in the Hippocampal Tissue of Old Rats
Background & objectives: Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the main risk factors for neurological diseases which are associated with aging. On the other hand, aerobic exercise has beneficial effects on the brain health and cognitive function, and also improves mitochondrial dynamics. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of 4 weeks of aerobic exercise on spatia...
متن کاملEffect of Swimming Training on Spatial Memory of Maternal Deprived Infants: Inducing Stress by Six Hours Separation per Day
Introduction: Primary stress can impair the nervous structure including the hippocampus and behavioral functions such as memory; therefore, paying attention to neutralizing the destructive effects of stress on the body has been one of the debatable topics among researchers. Considering the role of physical activity in reducing stress in previous studies, this study aimed to investigate the effe...
