The effect of garlic and stevia extract with aerobic exercise on hypothalamic leptin and ghrelin receptor mRNA expression and insulin resistance in obese rats.

Background: Obesity has recently become the most prevalent diet-related disease worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise, stevia, and garlic extract on leptin and ghrelin receptor mRNA, as well as the interactions between insulin and glucose in relation to these genes.

Methods: A total of 50 male Wistar rats were split into two groups: one group was fed regular rodent food, while the other was fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce obesity.

The effects of biological and chemical silver nanoparticles along with aerobic and anaerobic training protocols on tissues: Morphological and histopathological evaluation.

Nanotechnology and its byproducts are used increasingly considering its global nanotechnology market size and many applications in the health field. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of aerobic and anaerobic exercises on cellular uptake of nanoparticles in body tissues. Fusarium oxysporum was used to synthesize biological AgNPs in silver nitrate solution and UV-vis spectrophotometer; XRD and TEM were used to confirm production of nanoparticles.

Liver tissue changes induced by biological and chemical silver nanoparticles in trained male Wistar rats.

Introduction: Despite the widespread use of chemical and biological nano-silver are in industry, their side effects on hepatocytes have been less studied. On the other hand, different types of physical activities may increase liver resistance to toxins. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the resistance of hepatocytes to receiving chemical versus biological silver nanoparticles in aerobic and anaerobic pre-conditioned rats.
