Abstract:

Objective(s): It seems that regular exercise can have inhibitory effects on the progression of breast cancer. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the influences of interval aerobic training on mesenchymal biomarker gene expression, muscle cachexia, and tumor volume changes in mice with breast cancer.Materials and Methods: Thirty-two female Balb/c mice were allocated to four groups: Exercise Tumor Exercise, Rest Tumor Rest (Control), Rest Tumor Exercise, and Exercise Tumor Rest. Interval aerobic training was done 6 weeks before and 4 weeks after tumor induction. Weight test and inverted screen test were carried out as muscle function tests. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and HSD post hoc.Results: The results showed a significant decrease in gene expressions of Twist, Vimentin, and TGF-β in Exercise Tumor Exercise group in comparison with the Control group (P<0.05). Remarkable reduction of the rate of tumor volume was also observed in two training groups (Rest Tumor Exercise, Exercise Tumor Exercise) compared with the control group. According to function tests’ results, muscle functions were diminished due to cancer, but interval aerobic training can keep muscles in a normally-functioning state in cancer (P<0.05).Conclusion: Considering final results, a period of interval aerobic training can be used not only as a prevention method, but also help cancer treatment and impede cachexia by tumor volume reduction, decrease mesenchymal biomarker gene expression, and increase muscle strength functions.

Effect of Interval Training on the Expression of Mesenchymal Biomarker Vimentin and Tumor Volume in Mice with Breast Cancer

Introduction Many deaths from cancer are due to metastases, a process which involves the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). On the other hand, regular exercise plays an important role in inhibiting the progression of breast cancer. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of interval training on the expression of VIM, the gene encoding for EMT biomarker viment...

Comparing the Effects of 4 and 12 Weeks of Aerobic Training on Tumor Volume in Female Mice with Breast Cancer

Introduction: Tumor size is a contributing factor in cancer prognosis. On the other hand, regular exercise may play an important role in inhibiting tumor growth in breast cancer. Because of the key role of tumor volume in tumor metastasis, the aim of the present study was to compare the effects of a 4-week and a 12-week aerobic training on tumor volume in female mice with breast cancer. Methods...

The Effect of Interval Training on the Expression of Tumor Suppressor Gene, Systemic Inflammation, and Tumor Volume in Breast Cancer–Bearing BALB/c Mice

Introduction: E-cadherin is expressed in most normal epithelial tissues. Loss of E-cadherin can cause dedifferentiation and invasiveness in human carcinomas, leading E-cadherin to be classified as a tumor suppressor. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of interval training on the expression of tumor suppressor gene E-cadherin in breast cancer-bearing BALB/c mice. Meth...

Effect of 10 Weeks of Continuous Aerobic Training on Tumor Volume and Gene Expression of IGF-1, Akt, and mTORC1 in the Myocardium of Mice with Breast Cancer

Introduction:Regular exercise training inhibits tumor growth and prevents cardiomyopathy in breast cancer patients by activating signaling pathways leading to changes in gene expression. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of 10 weeks of continuous aerobic training on tumor volume and expression of IGF-1, Akt, mTORC1 genes in the myocardium of mice with breast cancer...
