Introduction: Nowadays Opioids are gaining acceptance for the management of moderate to severe and chronic pain. In addition, a number of studies have shown that plasma levels of β-endorphin (βEP) in exercise trained are higher than sedentary rats. In our study we assume that exercise training can reduce pain after withdrawal syndrome in morphine-dependent rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats (2...

PURPOSE The present study investigated the effect of maximal strength training on running economy (RE) at 70% of maximal oxygen consumption (V[spacing dot above]O2max) and time to exhaustion at maximal aerobic speed (MAS). Responses in one repetition maximum (1RM) and rate of force development (RFD) in half-squats, maximal oxygen consumption, RE, and time to exhaustion at MAS were examined. M...

To elucidate the effects of endurance training on circulating irisin levels in young and middle-aged/older adults, and to determine the association between endurance training-induced alteration of irisin and reduction in body fat. Twenty-five healthy young (age 21 ± 1 years; 16 men, 9 women) and 28 healthy middle-aged/older adults (age 67 ± 8 years; 12 men, 16 women) participated in the study. ...

Background: Physical activity has a range of effects on male reproductive function depending upon the intensity and duration of the activity. Materials and Methods: In order to investigate the protective effects of nano zinc oxide on endurance exercise induced testicular oxidative stress, 30 adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the following groups: control group (n=10); exercised ...

objective: diabetic neuropathy leads to axonal transport abnormalities. however its mechanism and the beneficial effects of exercise on these abnormalities are not well documented. the present study aims to investigate kif1b mrna in spinal cord sensory neuron tissue of wistar male rats with diabetic neuropathy following endurance training. methods: we randomly assigned 12 male wistar rats into ...

patients and methods forty five young female volunteer athletes were included and received different training regimens (endurance-training, strength training and concurrent groups) for a 10 week period as study intervention. standard color doppler echocardiography was performed for assessment of the left ventricular activity. results as a result, 45 athletes ended the study training regimens. m...
