introduiction: this study aimed to investigate the protective effects of 12-week voluntary exercise using a running wheel on the striatum  dopaminergic neurons against 6-hydroxydopamine lesions in rats. materials and method: twenty five rats were divided into three groups including healthy, parkinson and training-parkinson. the training groups were housed in individual cages geared with running...

Aims: Obesity is associated with cardiovascular disease. Today, changing childhood lifestyle may affect on cardiovascular diseases factors. The goal of this research was to determine the evaluation of changes in lipid profiles, insulin resistance and serum FGF21 following three types of exercise training in sedentary obese children. Materials and Methods: Sixty obese boys 8-12 years old with z...

introduction: obesity and visceral fat accumulation after menopause are associated with insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. we investigated the interactive effect of aerobic-resistance training and estrogen replacement therapy on visceral fat, omentin-1 and homa-ir in ovariectomized rats. materials and methods: fifty female wistar rats were ovariectomized (ovx) and divided into 5 gr...

Introduction: Deep heated oils produce toxins that endanger people's health. The current study aims to investigate the simultaneous effect of aerobic training and Octopamine consumption on the mitophagy of brown adipose tissue after the induction of intoxication through deeply heated oil in male wistar rats. Method: 40 male wistar rats after four weeks of feedi...

Exercise training causes increased oxidative stress. Pistacia Atlantica Extract (Mastic) is known to have a protective effect against oxidative stress and inflammation. We examined the effects of exercise training with and without Pistacia Atlantica extract administration on antioxidant markers in vistar rats. Twenty-eight Vistar female rats (six to eight weeks old, 150-200 g weight) allocate...

background: exercise and consumption of green tea affect the aging process. however, the effect of exercise training combined with green tea extract on leukocyte telomere length, quality of life (qol) and body composition in aging has so far been unclear and inconsistent. objective: the aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of aerobic training intervention and green tea ex...

Statins are life-saving medications and so effective that some have suggested they be added to the drinking water to “fluorinate” the vascular bed against atherosclerotic disease. But statins, both in research models and clinically, can have deleterious effects on skeletal muscle. The most serious side effects are myositis and rhabdomyolysis manifested by marked elevations in creatine kinase an...

abstract background: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) is currently the fourth cause of mortality worldwide. patients with copd experience periods of dyspnea, fatigue, and disability, which impact on their life. the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of short‑term inspiratory muscle training on exercise capacity, exertional dyspnea, and pulmonary lung function. mat...

This study investigated the effect of physical training and oxidative stress on the antioxidative activity and on plasma lipid profile. Forty eight rats were given either a physical training or no training for 4 weeks and were then subdivided into 3 groups: before-exercise (BE); during-exercise (DE); after-exercise (AE). The antioxidative activity was evaluated with the activities of catalase i...
