Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of concurrent training on pre-inflammatory (IL-1β, TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines gene expression in women with type2 diabetes.
Methods: 18-patients (age30-38, >130 glycemic index) were selected, randomly, and divided into control (n=6) the concurrent training(diabetes, n=6) and the concurrent training (healthy, n=6) groups. The concurrent training protocol consisted of 3 sessions resistance training per week, 8sets with 80% one maximum repetition(
and the endurance training preformed with 30- minutes running (3sets×10 minutes) on a treadmill with 70-80 maximum heart rate(70-80 MHR), immediately. The leukocyte
’s IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-10 genes expression determined by the Real time-PCR technique. The quantitative expression of the cytokines gene was calculated using the 2
-ΔΔ CT method. The between- groups differences in variables were determined by independent t-test (permutation test) through REST software and independent one-way ANOVA.
Results: The results showed that IL-1β, TNF-α mRNA genes expression reduced significantly after the concurrent training in both the training groups in comparison to the control group (P<0.05). In addition, the results also showed that IL-10 mRNA gene expression was not expressed in leukocytes after the concurrent training in both training groups in comparison to the control group (P>0.05).
Conclusion: In conclusion, the results suggest that the concurrent training modulate IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA genes expression significantly in diabetic women but could not change IL-10 genes expression. This type of exercise training seems to be more effective in reducing the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines than in enhancing anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common endocrine diseases. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death in patients with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the metabolic profile of plasma amino acids in diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease.
Methods: The present study is a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study on 140 patients including 35 patients with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD.DM), 35 patients with type 2 diabetes and non-cardiovascular disease (DM). 35 non-diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD.nDM) and 35 non-diabetic patients with non-cardiovascular disease (HS) were referred to Diabetes Clinic No. 1 of Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
Results: 76 (54.3%) were male and 64 (45.7%) were female. The highest concentrations of glutamine and isoleucine were observed in DM.CVD, asparagine, serine, arginine, threonine, alanine, tyrosine, valine in DM.nCVD and methionine in CVD.nDM. The lowest concentrations of tyrosine and tryptophan in DM.CVD has been detected , and methionine has been detected in DM.nCVD. The amino acids alanine, glutamine, tyrosine, valine, methionine, leucine, lysine and arginine significantly increased the chances of developing DM.nCVD. For each increase in Z-score per plasma concentration of isoleucine, the chances of developing cardiovascular disease without diabetes were significantly increased.
Conclusion: The amino acids alanine, glutamine, tyrosine, valine, methionine, leucine, lysine and arginine are involved in predicting the risk of DM.nCVD and isoleucine and methionine are involved in predicting the risk of CVD.nDM.

Abstract
Background: In many years, finding modern and appropriate treatments for diseases, especially chronic diseases (such as chronic metabolic diseases) have been one of the most important issues. On the other hand, limitations related to organ transplantation have made a serious need for advanced therapeutic strategies. In this respect, researchers have recognized the benefits of stem cells as a suitable tool. Accordingly, the application of stem cells for the treatment of various diseases has been considered in many countries around the world especially Iran.
Methods: A review of the history of stem cell studies in Iran and the world was conducted and the Cell Therapy and Reconstructive Medicine Research Center was introduced as one of the leading centers in this field and a review was conducted on the activities of this center.
Results: The history of studies related to cell-based therapy in Iran back to 1990. Subsequently, the Cell Therapy and Reconstructive Medicine Research Center, by providing services based on GMP principles, has provided clinical services in accordance with international standards and has conducted various researches in this field.
Conclusion: The purpose of the current review is to examine the strategies and challenges around the research and treatment opportunities using stem cells in mentioned center.

Abstract
Background: The objective of this experimental study was to determine the effect of 6 weeks of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on G6Pase expression in liver tissue, serum insulin and glucose and insulin resistance in obese rats with type 2 diabetic and compared with non-diabetic obese group.
Methods: 28 male Wistar rats aged 10 weeks (220 ± 10 g) were obesed by 6 weeks of high-fat diet (HFD). Then type 2 diabetes induced in 14 rats by intraperitoneal injection of STZ (30 mg/kg). Finally, the studied rats were divided into 4 same groups: 1) control obese, 2) interval obese, 3) control diabetic, 4) interval diabetic. Interval groups participated in an interval exercise program of 5 sessions per week for 6 weeks consists of 10 repetitions of a 40-second run on the treadmill with 2-minute rest (active rest) between repetitions. 48 hours after the lasting session, fasting levels of glucose, serum insulin and G6Pase expression in liver tissue in all 4 groups were measured and compared with 2 way ANOVA.
Results: Compared with diabetic control groups, HIIT in diabetic group resulted in significant decrease fasting glucose (p= 0.001). HIIT also led to an increase in serum insulin (p= 0.006) without change in G6Pase expression (p= 0.102) compared to the diabetic control group.
Conclusion: Improved glucose response to interval training in type 2 diabetic rats may be rooted in increase insulin without changes in hepatic G6Pase expression. Measurement of activity or expression of other liver enzymes is suggested for general conclusion.
