Summary: | Introdution: Adipokines play various biological roles, which are related to the following items, including body mass index changes, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of eight-weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on serum levels of chemerin, omentin-1 and apelin on overweight female Sprague-Dawley rats.
Methods: In this study, 16 obese rats were randomly divided into two groups: 8 rats in the control group and 8 rats in the experimental group. For eight weeks, the experimental group did HIIT exercises based on an exercise program five days a week, while the control group had no training program. After eight weeks, an independent t-test was used for data analysis.
Results: The results showed that there was no significant difference between chemerin serum levels in rats that had undergone an intensive exercise program as compared to the control group (p=0.079). On the other hand, there was a significant difference between serum levels of omentin-1 (P = 0.034) and apelin (P = 0.044).
Conclusion: According to the results of the present study as well as the importance in adipokine level changes, it seems that HIIT exercise can be an important and useful factor for regulation of adipose tissue hormones (adipokines), and healthy and sick individuals can do this kind of activity according to their ability. |
