Abstract:

Background and purpose: The present study aimed at exploring the effects of eight-week high intensity interval training (HIIT) program on gene expression factors involved in cholesterol reverse transport in liver tissue of ischemic rats. Materials and methods: In this study, 28 Wistar Rats (250 ±20 g) were randomly divided into four groups: Ischemia (n=8), Placebo (n=8), Training (n=8), and Ischemia plus Training (n=8). Myocardial infarction was induced by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) for 30 minutes. High intensity interval training program (4 min of running at 85-90% VO2max and 2 min active recovery at 50-60% VO2max) was performed using treadmill for 8 weeks (three times a week /40 minutes). Results: The expression levels of ABCG1 receptor gene and Apolipoprotein A1 significantly increased in high intensity interval training group compared to Ischemia group (P=0.008) and placebo group (P= 0.037). Also, the expression of Apolipoprotein 2 receptor gene showed significant increase in HIIT+ Ischemia group compared to Ischemia group (P=0.041) and placebo group (P=0.04). In addition, the expression of SR-BR receptor gene was found to increase in HIIT+ Ischemia group compared to the placebo group (P=0.028). Conclusion: High intensity interval training in ischemic rats increases the key factors involved in reverse cholesterol transfer process and ultimately leads to an increase in HDL, which has a positive effect on prevention of atherosclerosis and ischemia.

Effect of eight weeks of high intensity interval training and crocin consumption on the apoptotic genes expression in the liver tissue of male rats under chronic doxorubicin induction

Background and Aims: The use of doxorubicin (Dox) in chemotherapy has irreversible effects on liver tissue. The role of physical activities and antioxidants consumption has not yet been fully understood in the mechanism of apoptosis induced by Dox. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and crocin consumption on liver tissue apopt...
