Abstract
Aim
Asprosin, a protein hormone, is released by unilocular adipocytes in reaction to low blood sugar. We aimed to examine how exercise affects asprosin hormone levels and associated organs, including the liver and pancreas, in diabetes.
Methods
Twenty-one male Wistar albino rats were firstly allocated into two main groups: control (n = 7) and diabetes (n = 14). Then, the diabetes group was further separated into two subgroups: sedentary (n = 7) and exercise (n = 7). The exercise group participated in a swimming training regimen (30 min/daily, six weeks). Serum levels of asprosin and various other biochemical parameters were evaluated through commercial ELISA kits. The liver was analyzed histopathologically, and pancreatic islet cells were examined for Cas-3 immune expression.
Results
Asprosin and total oxidant status decreased significantly in the exercise diabetic subgroup (p < 0.05). Glucose, insulin, creatinine, IL-6, and HomaIR concentrations decreased slightly with exercise (p > 0.05). Liver tissue injury scores and Cas-3 immune expression in pancreas islet cells decreased in exercise diabetic rats.
Conclusions
Reducing asprosin may lower glucose, insulin, and HOMA-IR. Physical activity decreases asprosin and total oxidative status, fostering anti-apoptosis and tissue healing in diabetes, potentially enhancing health. Monitoring asprosin levels offers insights into diabetes progression. Our findings imply that asprosin can be a therapeutic target for diabetes.
期刊介绍:
Tissue and Cell is devoted to original research on the organization of cells, subcellular and extracellular components at all levels, including the grouping and interrelations of cells in tissues and organs. The journal encourages submission of ultrastructural studies that provide novel insights into structure, function and physiology of cells and tissues, in health and disease. Bioengineering and stem cells studies focused on the description of morphological and/or histological data are also welcomed.
Studies investigating the effect of compounds and/or substances on structure of cells and tissues are generally outside the scope of this journal. For consideration, studies should contain a clear rationale on the use of (a) given substance(s), have a compelling morphological and structural focus and present novel incremental findings from previous literature.
