Abstract
Background: During recent decades, physical activity has become a key auxiliary tool in controlling many diseases, including diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of resistance training on the plasma levels of preptin and endothelin 1 in men with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: The current research is semi-experimental. The statistical sample of this study consisted of 38 men with type 2 diabetes, who were randomly divided into two groups of 19 experimental and control. Subjects in the experimental group performed 8 weeks of resistance training three sessions a week with moderate intensity. 24 hours before and after 8 weeks of training, plasma levels of preptin, endothelin 1, and indicators related to type 2 diabetes were measured by the ELISA method. Correlated t-tests and independent t-tests were used to examine intra-group changes. SPSS software was used to analyze the data (P≥ 0.05).
Results: Correlated t results showed that plasma levels of preptin and insulin resistance index (P= 0.001) as well as plasma endothelin 1 (P= 0.001) decreased significantly in the post-test compared to the pre-test of the experimental group. has been found Also, the independent t-test results showed that the plasma levels of preptin, insulin resistance index (P= 0.001) and endothelin 1 (P= 0.002) were significantly lower in the post-test of the experimental group compared to the control.
Conclusion: According to the obtained results, it seems that doing resistance exercises improves glucose sensitivity by reducing preptin and reducing the possibility of blood pressure by reducing endothelin 1 in preople with type 2 diabetes.
