Abstract:

Abstract Background and Objective: It has been shown that oxidative stress increases in diabetes and it has an important role in its development and subsequent complications. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of acute resistance exercise on oxidative stress in skeletal muscle and cardiac tissues of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Twenty male wistar rats were rendered diabetic by a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ; 50 mg/kg, IP) and were randomly divided into two groups: (1) acute resistance exercise and (2) sedentary control. Acute resistance exercise consisted of 4 separate sessions of exercise that happened in non-consecutive days. After the last session, the animals were anesthetized by xylazine (10 mg/kg) and ketamine (75 mg/kg) and flexor hallucis longus (FHL) muscle and heart were surgically removed and stored at -80 °C until biochemical analysis of malondialdehyde (MDA), protein carbonyl (PC), and glutathione (GSH) was done. Results: Our findings showed a significant decrease of MDA (p=0.007), but not PC level (p=0.678) of cardiac tissue of resistance exercise group. However, in FHL muscle, resistance exercise caused a significant increase in MDA (p=0.01), but there was no significant changes in PC level (p=0.399). Resistance exercise also caused a small but insignificant increase in GSH content of both skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues (p=0.11 and p=0.19, respectively). Conclusion: We observed that in diabetic rats, acute resistance exercise decreases cardiac tissue MDA, increases skeletal muscle MDA level, and had no significant effect on PC and GSH level. Further research is needed to specify the mechanisms of these differences in various tissues following resistance exercise.

Diosgenin attenuates cardiac oxidative stress in streptozotocin- induced diabetic rat

Background and Objective: Chronic diabetes mellitus (DM) leads to cardiovascular dysfunction. Diosgenin is a natural steroidal saponin with cardiovascular protective potential. In this research study, the beneficial effect of diosgenin was evaluated on some markers of oxidative stress in cardia tissue of streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Male Wistar rats (n = 28) were ...

Effect of resveratrol on SNARE proteins expression and insulin resistance in skeletal muscle of diabetic rats

Objective(s): Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex proteins are involved in membrane trafficking. The expression of isoforms of SNAP-23, syntaxin-4, and VAMP-2 is significantly done in skeletal muscles; they control GLUT4 trafficking. It is believed that type 2 diabetes could be caused by the modifications in the express...
