[ 1 ] - Behavioral Changes in Combination Therapy of Ethanol and Modafinil on rats Focal Cerebral Ischemia

Introduction: Ethanol is considered as an effective agent in reducing brain stroke injury. In this study, we assessed the effects of modafinil along with ethanol as a combination therapy on behavioral function in Wistar rats. Methods: The right Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO) was performed and the rats were divided into nine groups (n=8 per group). The animal groups in this study were ...

[ 2 ] - Effect of Resistance and Endurance Trainings on Sperm Parameters and Spermatogenesis Indices in Type 2 Diabetic Rats

 Background and purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of endurance training and resistance programs on sperm parameters and spermatogenesis in diabetic rats. Materials and methods: In this experimental study, in one group, 24 healthy male Wistar rats were assigned into three subgroups (control, endurance training, and resistance training). The next group (n=24) c...

[ 3 ] - Effect of Resistance and Endurance Trainings on Nrf2/Keap1 Signaling Pathway in Testicular Tissue of Type 2 Diabetic Rats

Background and purpose: The antioxidant Nrf2/Keap1 pathway prevents cellular damages against oxidative stress and this pathway is disrupted following diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of endurance and resistance training on antioxidant Nrf2/Keap1 pathway in testicular tissue of diabetic rats. Materials and methods: In this experimental research, 48 male Wistar rats ...

[ 4 ] - Protective Effect of Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training and High-Intensity Interval Training on Serum Levels of Oxidative Stress Parameters in Rats Treated with Cisplatin

Background and purpose: Considering the antioxidant properties of physical activity, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT) on oxidative stress and total antioxidant capacity in rats treated with cisplatin. Materials and methods: In this experimental study, 24 male laboratory ra...
