Abstract

PURPOSE This study was to investigate the effects of resistance exercise on serum inflammatory markers and CatSper 1-4 expression in testis of OLETF rats. METHODS Male OLETF rats were divided into two groups; control group (n=12), resistance exercise group (n=12). The exercise group performed a total of 8 weeks of moderate intensity resistance exercise on a 1.35 m vertical ladder with weights secured to their tails. RESULTS The results of this study was following; The exercise group showed a significant decreased in the inflammatory (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) levels as compared to the control group. But CRP was no significant difference between control and exercise groups. Also, CatSper 1 and 2 were significantly increased in the exercise group compared to the control group, whereas CatSper 3, 4 were no significant difference between both groups. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that resistance exercise training can contribute to reduce pro-inflammatory responses in whole body and it affects male reproductive function by improve sperm quality and CatSper protein expression. 색인어: ì €í•­ì„± 운동, 염증반응지표, CatSper 단백질, 당뇨병 Keywords: Resistance training, Inflammatory markers, CatSper protein, Diabetes mellitus
