dc.description.abstractObjective In the present study we evaluated the effect of exercise on the plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and the anti-inflammatory molecule uric acid in the Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats that are more prone to develop type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Sixteen obese ZDF (Gmi fa/fa) rats (8 wk old, 228.40 ± 4.05 g) were randomly assigned to one of two groups (n = 8 each): an exercise-trained group and a sedentary one. In addition, 16 lean ZDF (Gmi +/+) rats (8 wk old, 199.00 ± 3.50 g) were subjected to identical sedentary and exercise conditioning (n = 8 each). Initially, rats swam 15 min/d (5 d/wk) in a 36°C bath. The exercise protocol was gradually increased by 15 min/d until a swimming period of 1 h/d (1 wk) was attained. Thereafter, rats swam 1 h/d, 3 d/wk, for an additional period of 11 wk. Rats were sacrificed 48 h after the last training period and the blood and pancreas were collected. Circulating levels of glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin, uric acid, IL-6, and TNF-α were assessed. The concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines in the pancreas were also evaluated. Results In the diabetic ZDF (fa/fa) rats, exercise decreased hyperuricemia (−37.3%) and IL-6 and TNF-α levels (−16.9% and −12.7% respectively) and maintained the weight of the pancreas at near normal. Immunohistochemistry revealed a marked decrease in the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 in the pancreatic islet cells of ZDF (fa/fa) rats. Conclusion These results indicate that aerobic exercise is anti-inflammatory in nature.pt_PT
