ghrelin is an orexigenic peptide secreted by the stomach. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of three weeks of endurance training on plasma and fundus ghrelin as well as growth hormone (gh), cortisol hormone and weight in male wistar rats. 20 male wistar rats (14–16 weeks old) were randomly assigned to control (n =10) and training (n=10) groups. the rats in the training group e...

exercise training has been shown to decrease chronic low- grade systemic inflammation in high- fat diet induced obesity. however, the mechanisms mediating its beneficial effects are not fully understood. therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 12- week endurance training on il-6, il-10 and nesfatin -1 in obese male rats. sixteen male wistar rats (2 months old) were ...

objective(s): abc transporters comprise a large family of transmembrane proteins that use the energy provided by atp hydrolysis to translocate a variety of substrates across biological membranes. all members of the human abcg subfamily, except for abcg2, are cholesterol-transporter. the aim of this study was to determine the liver, the small intestine and kidney abcg5 relative gene expression i...

The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of a high- intensity treadmill running (8 weeks) with or without aqueous extraction of black Crataegus-Pentaegyna (Siyah -Valik) on liver ABCA1 mRNA expression and plasma HDL-C, total, and direct bilirubin concentration in male rats. Twenty Wistar male rats (4-6 weeks old, 140-170 g weight) were used. Animals were randomly assigne...

Background: Obestatin is secreted from the stomach and has effects on energy balance and food intake. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to investigate obestatin, estradiol, and liver ATP responses after 8 weeks of a treadmill exercise running program at different durations. Materials and Methods: 37 male Wistar rats (8 to 10 weeks old, 145 to 160 g) were assigned to control (n = ...
