Abstract
Background: Positive regulation of senescence-related markers leads to adipose tissue disorders. Exercise seems to improve aging in adipose tissue.
Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of endurance and resistance training on the expression of senescence-related genes.
Methods: In this experimental study, Twenty-four obese rats were divided into three groups: (1) Endurance Training, (2) Resistance Training, and (3) Control groups. Training groups trained for 8 weeks and 5 days a week. The Endurance group exercise program consists of Running on a treadmill and the Resistance group exercise program is included Climbing a resistance ladder. While, the control group had no training. The expression of P53, P16, and IL-6 genes in visceral tissue of obese rats were measured by Real-time PCR analysis. Finally, the data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test and statistical differences were considered significant at P<0.05.
Results: The results of this study showed the expression levels of P53, P16, and IL-6 genes in the Endurance Training group (P=0.001, P=0.006, P=0.001) and Resistance Training group (P=0.001, P=0.038, P=0.001) had a significant decrease compared to the control group. There was also no significant difference in the expression of P53, P16, and IL-6 genes between the endurance and resistance groups (P=0.439, P=0.584, P=0.300).
Conclusion: According to the results of the present study, it seems that endurance and resistance training plays a role in reducing the expression of senescence-related genes, which This effect was no different in endurance and resistance training.
