Abstract
Background/Objective One of the problems associated with aging is the development of apoptosis in different tissues. There is evidence that physical activity and herbal remedies can be useful. This study aimed to determine the effect of swimming training (SW) alone or combined with garlic extract on renal and hepatic cells apoptosis, as wellas on the liver and kidney function biomarkers in old rats. Methods A total of 35 old rats (aged 40–50 weeks) were randomly divided into 5 groups including control, saline (S), exercise training (ET), garlic (G) and exercise training+ garlic (ET.G) groups. Exercise was started for 5 min/day and then gradually extended to 60 min/day and the G and E+G groups received 1 mL/kg of this mixture by gavage. Twenty-four hours after completion of 8 weeks training, liver, kidney and blood samples were collected for histopathological examinations, liver and kidney functions, oxidative stress and apoptosis biomarkers. Results The tissue sections of the SW exercise, control and saline groups showed some mild histopathological changes in liver and kidney, while SW supplemented with garlic prevented these damages. The SW alone or supplemented with garlic significantly increased the Bcl-2 value and declined the BAX level in both liver and kidney (p<0.05). The activities of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the liver and kidney of the control and saline groups were lower than those in E, G and G+E groups, while a significant increase for malondialdehyde (MDA) value was found in the control and saline groups. Furthermore, the E+G significantly declined the activity of hepatic (ALT, AST and ALP) and renal damage (uric acid, urea and creatinine) biomarkers compared to the control and saline groups (p<0.05). Discussion Swimming exercise supplemented with garlic extract not only improves antioxidant capacity but also declines oxidative damages and apoptosis through reducing Bax levels and enhancing Bcl-2 value.

Abstract
Purpose Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common type of degenerative joint disease which decreases the quality of life. Sex-determining region Y box 9 (SOX9) and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF1) are considered as the key regulators of OA. We investigated the effect of combined therapies with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), ozone (O3) and exercise training on SOX9 and HIF1 expression in the cartilage of rats with knee OA. Methods Knee OA was induced by surgical method. OA rats were divided into model, MSCs, ozone, exercise, MSCs + ozone, MSCs + exercise, ozone + exercise and MSCs + ozone + exercise groups. Rats in the MSCs group received intraarticular injection of 1 × 106 cells/kg. Rats in the ozone group received O3 at the concentration of 20 μg/mL, once weekly for 3 weeks. Rats in the exercise group were trained on rodent treadmill three times per week. 48 hours after the programs, cartilage tissues were isolated and the expression of SOX9 and HIF1 was determined using Real-Time PCR. Results Significant differences were found in the expression of SOX9 and HIF1 between groups (P < 0.0001). Although combined therapies with exercise, MSCs and O3 significantly increased the expression of SOX9 and HIF1 in the cartilage tissue of rats with knee OA, combination of exercise with O3 was significantly more effective compared to the other combined therapies (P < 0.001). Conclusions Combined therapy with exercise, MSCs and O3 significantly increased the expression of SOX9 and HIF1 genes in the cartilage of rats with knee OA; however, exercise + O3 was significantly more effective.

Abstract
Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) appears after unaccustomed exercise and peaks 24-48 h after exercise. Vitamin D micronutrient and vibration therapy may have an effect on DOMS. The present study investigated the effects of vitamin D micronutrient and vibration therapy on DOMS. Sixty female students were randomly assigned to one of the four groups (n=15 in each group): vitamin D, vibration therapy, vitamin D + vibration therapy, and control. The participants of vitamin D groups received vitamin D (3,800 IU, 1 session daily for 7 days), while the participants of the control groups received placebo. The participants of vibration therapy groups received vibration therapy (50 Hz; 3 sets of 1 min, 1 session daily for 7 days). One day later, the participants performed eccentric exercise (a quadriceps leg extension exercise). Immediately after this exercise protocol, the participants received vitamin D or vibration therapy on basis of their groups. Pain perception, creatine kinase (CK), interleukin (IL)-6, superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration were measured at baseline (before 7 days of intervention), after 7 days of intervention (before eccentric exercise) and 24, 48 and 72 h after eccentric exercise. Statistical analysis was employed and P≤0.05 was considered as the significant level. CK and IL-6 concentrations, as well as pain perception, were significantly lower in the vibration therapy and vitamin D groups compared to the control group 24 to 48 h after eccentric exercise. MDA concentration was significantly lower in the vibration therapy and vitamin D groups compared to the control group 48 to 72 h after eccentric exercise. In conclusion, the present study suggests that vibration therapy and vitamin D supplement may have effects against eccentric exercise-induced delayed onset muscle soreness in female students.

Abstract
Octopamine (OCT) have an adverse effect on heart function. One of the positive effects of exercise training is improving cardiac function and cardiomyocytes signaling, which along with herbal supplements can have better effects on the heart tissue. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of exercise training and OCT on changes of PGC1α and UCP1 expression in heart tissue of rat treated with deep frying oil (DFO). In this study, 45 male wistar rats were divided into 5 groups (n = 9 in each): I) control (Co), II) DFO, III) DFO + exercise, IV) DFO + OCT, and V) DFO + OCT + exercise. The quantification of apoptotic effects of DFO in heart tissue was assessed by TUNEL assay. Masson's trichrome stain applied to study cardiomyocytic fibers. Moreover, PGC1α and UCP1 genes and proteins expression in all groups were investigated using quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemical method. A significant increase in apoptotic cells was observed in the DFO-treated group (p < 0.05). In Masson's Trichrome stain study, more cardiomyocytic fibers were observed and some lymphocytic cells were present in some fibers. Also, the expression of PGC1α and UCP1 was significantly increase in DFO + exercise group, DFO + OCT group, and DFO + OCT + exercise group compare to DFO group (p < 0.05). Based on these findings, exercise and octopamine can be considered as factors affecting the expression of PGC1α genes and UCP1 as well as drug poisoning. Exercise training with octopamine can be upregulate expression of PGC1α. Exercise training with octopamine can be upregulate expression of UCP1. Increase the PGC1α and UCP1 can improve the mitochondria disfunction induced by DFO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With increasing age, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is very common among women with low levels of physical activity. Nonlinear resistance training is one of the new methods to help patients who have low levels of physical activity. Curcumin is an herbal supplement that has anti-inflammatory effects. The present study aimed to examine the effects of nonlinear resistance training and curcumin supplementation on the liver structure and biochemical markers in obese older women with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. METHODS Forty-five obese women with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease were randomly assigned into resistance training (RT), curcumin supplement (C), resistance training with curcumin supplement (RTC), and placebo (P) groups. The RT and RTC groups received 12-weeks of nonlinear resistance training while the C and P groups had a normal sedentary lifestyle. Daily, the C and RTC groups received a curcumin capsule while the P and RT groups were given a placebo capsule. Blood sampling and ultrasonography were taken before and after the protocol. RESULTS Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels significantly decreased in the RT and RTC groups (P ≤ 0.05) but not in the C and P groups (P > 0.05). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin (TB) levels, platelet counts (PLT), and liver structure did not significantly change in all groups (P > 0.05). Resistance training alone and with curcumin supplementation could significantly improve liver function while taking curcumin alone did not have any significant effect on it. CONCLUSION 12-week non-linear resistance training has beneficial effects on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in older obese women.

Abstract
Muscle soreness is a problem associated with physical activities. Recently, the medicinal herbs are strategies to prevent muscle soreness. The present study aims were to determine the effect of rosemary essential oil on the responses of lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase (CK), lymphocytes, neutrophils, muscle swelling (MS) and muscle pain (MP) following eccentric leg curl exercise in non-active women. 24 non-active females voluntarily participated in this study and were randomly assigned into three groups: rosemary dose 1 (RD1) (n=8; 0.25 ml), rosemary dose 2 (RD2) (n=8; 0.5 ml) and placebo (n=8; 0.5 ml olive oil). Participants in supplement groups consumed the desire amounts of rosemary essential oil every 8 h per day for 14 days. Then, the eccentric leg curl exercise was performed. The supplementation continued until 72 h after exercise. The serum variables, as well as, MS and MP were measured before, 24, 48 and 72 h after exercise. Data were analysed using repeated measure analysis of variance and P≤0.05 considered as significant. The results showed that rosemary significantly decreases CK in RD2 compared with placebo and RD1 48 h after exercise. There was no other significant difference in other serum variables. In conclusion, the present study showed a beneficial effect of rosemary on 48-h post-exercise serum CK concentration (a muscle damage indicator).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study compares the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT; 18 min) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MIT; 1 h) on reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) elements in obese subjects. METHODS Thirty adult male rats were induced high-fat diet (HFD) for 12 weeks. After four weeks, the rats were randomly divided into three groups while simultaneously continuing the HFD for the remaining eight weeks. Group specificities were HFD-control, HFD-MIT and HFD-HIIT. The rats were sacrificed 48 h after the last training session and the samples were collected. Analysis of variance and Pearson's correlation test were used for the statistical analyses (significance level: p ≤ 0.05). RESULTS The results showed that both HIIT and MIT improved heart ABCA1, ABCG1, ABCG4, ABCG5, ABCG8, LXR-α and PPARγ gene expression as well as plasma Apo A1, LCAT, lipids and lipoproteins (p ≤ 0.05). Moreover, higher cardiac ABCA1, ABCG1, ABCG4, ABCG5, ABCG8 and PPARγ expression and plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p ≤ 0.05) concentrations were found in the HFD-HIIT group compared with the HFD-MIT group. CONCLUSION HIIT may have more cardioprotective effects than MIT against atherosclerosis, along with saving time, as supported by the changes observed in the main factors involved in the RCT process.

Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common metabolic disorders worldwide. Empirical evidence has shown exercise to be of value in ameliorating symptoms of diabetes, but the underlying molecular mechanisms involved have not been well-studied. Aim: To evaluate the effects of continuous and interval exercises on blood glucose and insulin levels and on IL-6 and GLUT4 expression in diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Old Wistar rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes were randomly divided into three groups; namely, the patient (non-exercise control) group, the interval exercise group, and the continuous exercise group. The blood insulin level was measured using a specific ELISA kit, whereas the blood glucose level was determined with an AutoAnalyzer apparatus. Expression of the IL-6 and GLUT4 genes in skeletal muscle was determined using real-time PCR. All data were analyzed using SPSS software. Results: The expression of IL-6 and GLUT4 was significantly decreased in skeletal muscle of the diabetic rats (p < 0.001). Continuous (9.97-fold; p = 0.000) and interval (7.11-fold; p = 0.000) exercises significantly increased the expression of IL-6 relative to that in the animals of the patient group. Furthermore, continuous (9.36-fold; p = 0.000) and interval (7.65-fold; p = 0.001) exercises also significantly increased the expression of GLUT4 relative to that of the patient group. Both types of exercise training were associated with a significant decrease in the blood glucose and insulin levels compared with the levels in the patient group (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: Diabetes is significantly associated with IL-6 and GLUT4 downregulation, but this can be reversed through continuous and interval exercises, which also help to lower the blood glucose and insulin levels significantly.

Abstract
CONTEXT Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disorder. OBJECTIVE Effects of combined therapy with resveratrol, interval and continuous exercises on oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in the liver of rats with NAFLD. METHODS NAFLD rats were organised in patient, saline, resveratrol (RSV), continuous exercise, interval exercise, continuous exercise + RSV, and interval exercise + RSV groups. RESULTS Resveratrol supplementation alone or in combination with interval and continuous training significantly decreased malondialdehyde and TNF-α level (p < .05), while the levels of catalase; superoxide dismutase and IL-10 were significantly increased (p < .05). Although RSV alone significantly decreased the percentage of apoptotic cells (17.12%), its combination with interval (10.74%), and continuous (14.85%) exercise training demonstrated higher anti-apoptotic activity (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS Although resveratrol alone has an antioxidant, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties, combined therapy with interval, and continuous training can be more effective to mitigate these abnormalities in NAFLD patients.

Abstract
Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disorder. This study aims to consider effects of resveratrol, exercise and their combination on Farnesoid X receptor (Fxr), the liver X receptor (Lxr) and Sirtuin 1 (Sirt 1) genes expression in the liver of elderly rats with NAFLD. Methods Rats with NAFLD were randomly divided into seven groups including patient, saline, resveratrol (RSV), interval exercise, continuous exercise, interval exercise + RSV and continuous exercise + RSV. Levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the liver tissue were measured using specific ELISA kits. A TUNEL assay kit was used for the assessment of hepatic cells apoptosis. Lipid profiles were considered by measuring the serum triglyceride, cholesterol, LDL, and HDL. Expression of Sirt1, Lxr and Fxr genes was considered using RT-PCR. Results Resveratrol administration alone or combined with exercise training significantly improved the expression of Sirt1, Lxr and Fxr genes (p < 0.05) in the hepatic tissue of rats with NAFLD, while levels of AST, ALT, ALP enzymes, as well as apoptotic cells were significantly decreased (p < 0.05). Discussion Although resveratrol alone improves the expression of Sirt1, Lxr and Fxr, as well as liver function, combined therapy with exercise training is more effective to improve NAFLD.

Abstract
Semen hyperviscosity (SHV) is one of the factors involved in deficiency in sperm function. This research aimed to evaluate seminal plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC)
and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in infertile patients with hyperviscous and non-hyperviscous semen samples to understand whether hyperviscous semen is associated with
oxidative damage in infertile subjects. In this cross sectional study, 59 semen samples
were provided by fertile (n=12) individuals as control, infertile patients with normal viscosity (n=25) and infertile patients with hyperviscosity (n=22). After semen parameters examination, semen viscosity was studied by glass pipettes. Seminal plasma TAC and MDA
levels were measured by ferric reducing of antioxidant power (FRAP) and thiobarbituric
acid reaction (TBAR) methods, respectively. A probability less than 0.05 was considered
statistically significant throughout the article. The mean of sperm parameters including:
counts, motility and normal morphology in patients with hyperviscosity were significantly
lower than those in non-hyperviscosity patients (p<0.05, p<0.01 and p<0.001, respectively). The mean of seminal plasma TAC value in seminal plasma of non-hyperviscosity
patients (1710.31 ± 458.67 µmol/l) was significantly (p<0.01) higher than that of hyperviscosity group (1230.25 ± 352 µmol/l). A trend toward a higher mean of seminal plasma
MDA value was estimated for hyperviscous group compared with non-hyperviscous (1.01
± 0.41 nmol/ml vs. 0.94 ± 0.28 nmol/l); however, it was nonsignificant. Hyperviscous semen impairs seminal plasma TAC which is eventually associated with sperm membrane
lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to examine the effect of purslane seeds in glucagon-like peptide-1 concentration and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor in women with diabetes. METHODS This was a quasi-experimental study. The population was consisted of the city of Sari where diabetic women with diabetes II who had no history of using purslane seeds. All individuals used the same dose of metformin under the specialist supervision. Among these individuals, 16 were assigned at random to Purslane group and control group. The purslane group consumed 2.5 grams Purslane with lunch and along with 5 grams of purslane (Portulaca oleracea seeds 7.5 g daily) with dinner meals twice daily for 8 weeks. Blood sample was taken before and after 8 weeks, after 12 hours of fasting to 5 ml of the left brachial vein. RESULTS After 8 weeks using purslane seeds in the experimental group, a significant increase was seen in glucagon-like peptide-1 concentrations (p<0.007), but there was no significant difference in the concentration of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (p <0.455). No significant relationship was found between changes in glucagon-like peptide-1 and its receptor. CONCLUSION The use of purslane seeds improved Type II diabetes; therefore it can be effective in improving the health of women with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical activity reduces symptoms of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of six-week aerobic exercise upon Chemerin and Resistin concentration in women with menopause who had hypertension. METHODS The population of this quasi-experimental study included postmenopausal women diagnosed with hypertension. They were 50 to 55 years old and lived in Amol, a city in north part of Iran. Twenty volunteers were filled the personal consent and Health Questionnaire. They were randomly assigned to Experimental and control groups equally (n=10 per group). The experimental group conducted a 6-week aerobic training program from 8-10am every day. RESULTS Endurance exercise decreased Chemerin (t=10.41, P<0.000) and Resistin (t=2.42, P<0.051); indicating the decline of inflammation and cardiovascular disease. CONCLUSION Considering anti-inflammatory effects of exercise, training plays an important role in reducing inflammatory indices in human; and endurance training can be a good strategy to deal with inflammation and cardiac- vascular risk factors.
