Abstract
Background: Diabetes is a common endocrine disease in human kind. In most type II diabetic patients, obesity and overweight status account as the serious health problems worldwide and variety of endocrine factors well known that have regulatory role in weight balance and body composition including Leptin and IGF-I factor. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between Leptin and IGF-I in type II diabetics and controls.
Methods: As a case- control study, 38 type 2 diabetics (20 males and 18 female with mean age 49.22) and 46 healthy controls (16 males and 30 females with mean age 49.52) are recruited. We measured the concentrations of FPG, IGF-I, HbA1C and IGFBP-3 in both groups. FPG was measured by enzymatic glucose oxidase method and Hb Gold analyzer HPLC was used to measure HbA1C. Determination of Leptin, IGF-I, IGFBP-3 and Insulin concentrations were carried out using ELIZA method. P< 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
Results: The mean of BMI and age were not significantly different in both groups. The mean serum levels of IGF-I, Leptin, Insulin, FPG and HbA1c concentrations in type II diabetics were significantly higher than controls (P< 0.05). In males, the mean serum levels of Leptin were statistically lower than in females in both groups. There was a strong correlation between IGF-I and IGFBP-3, Leptin and insulin, IGF-I and age, and BMI with FPG in both patients and controls (P< 0.05). A reverse correlation was observed between IGF-I and HbA1c in patients and controls (P< 0.05).
Conclusion: It is speculated that based on this findings, Leptin and IGF-I system could have regulatory roles in body composition and fat content particularly in obese and overweight diabetic patients and have significant correlation with Insulin, glucose, BMI and age.

Abstract
Background: In recent years, dietary supplements play an important role in maintaining a healthy diet in most chronic diseases such as diabetes. Spirulina platensis as a food supplement has been raised and regulator effects on cholesterol and antioxidant and immune regulating effects of this supplement are also considered. It contains vitamin B, beta-carotene, vitamin E, high value proteins, minerals, gamma linolenic acid and antioxidants.
Methods: In this study 50 patients with type II diabetes were randomly selected and after taking patient's history they were divided into two equal groups including control. 8 grams of spirulina that was prepared in tablet (each 1 gram) form was administered daily to patient group for three months. Fasting blood sugar levels monthly and hemoglobin A1C levels at the beginning and end of the projects were measured in both groups and their results were compared with each other.
Results: Fasting plasma glucose in patient group after 3 months of treatment with spirulina powder gave a significant reduction from the 158.1± 44.2 mg/dl at the beginning of study to 127.8 ± 36.7 mg/dl but was not significant in the control group. Glycosylated hemoglobin in the both groups decreased but this decrease was not statistically significant.
Conclusion: Spirulina platensis as a supplement can be administered in type II diabetic patients that used oral anti-diabetic drugs. It is effective in reducing fasting blood glucose in the short term but its effect on hemoglobin A1C need to prescribe longer.

Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of 10 weeks of Intensity Interval Training and Supplementation green tea on serum level of irisin and insulin resistance in obese women with type 2 diabetes
Methods: In this semi-experimental study,48 women with type II diabetes (aged 49/55±3/04 years with Weight 76/72±5/78 kg, Height 153/33±5/06 Cm, BMI 31/75±1/41 Kg/m2, selected and grouped randomly into four groups the intensity interval training (n=12), combined (green tea extract along with intensity interval training) (n=12) green tea extract (n=12), and the control group(n=12). Training group performed training programs including 3sessions per week at maximum intensity of 75-85% heart rate and the supplement group consumed 3 tablets of green tea (500 mg) daily for 10 weeks high intensity interval training and the supplement group both underwent intervention. Blood samples were collected before and after the intervention in fasting state. The obtained data was analyzed using of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey post hoc test and paired t-test analysis. The significant level was P<0/05.
Results: The results showed that irisin levels and maximum oxygen consumption in all three groups increased significantly after 10 weeks compared to the control group (P≤0.05) Also, the results indicate a significant increase in irezin in the combined group compared with the green tea group. Serum insulin level, glucose, insulin resistance and weight, body mass index decreased significantly in all three groups compared to control group and green tea group and combination group (P≤0.05).No significant difference was found between the groups in the irisin levels)P>0.05).
Conclusion: Regarding the results of this study, it seems that performing periodic exercises along with supplementation of green tea due to increased irisin and glucose reduction can be helpful in improving insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes. Perhaps the desired results can be achieved by increasing the duration of exercise and supplementation with iyrosin and the maximum oxygen intake.

Abstract
Background: The hepatokines are now considered potential targets for the treatment of type 2 diabetes disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 12 weeks combined training with Canagliflozin on some hepatokines in type 2 diabetic men.
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 44 men with type 2 diabetes (Mean age 33.2 ± 4.5 years, body mass index 27.3±3.0) from Tehran city in 2019 were randomly divided into four groups (n=11) of control, drug, exercise and exercise-drug groups. Combined training was performed 3 sessions per week, 45 minutes for 12 weeks. Subjects were given 200 mg of canagliflozin for 12 weeks. Blood samples and anthropometric characteristics were obtained before and 24 hours after the intervention at 12-hour fasting. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA with repeated measures, t-test and Bonferroni post hoc test at P<0.05.
Results: The results showed that 12 weeks of exercise with Canagliflozin intervention significantly reduced angiopoietin-3 and angiopoietin-4, FGF-21 and HFREP-1 levels in type 2 diabetic men (P=0.001). Also, after the intervention of exercise with Canagliflozin, levels of angiopoietin-3, angiopoietin-4, FGF-21, and HFREP-1 were significantly lower than the pre-test (P<0.001).
Conclusion: According to the results of research, it is possible that intervention of exercise with Canagliflozin can help treat of disorders due to type 2 diabetes by reducing hepatokines.

Abstract
Background: Over the years type 2 diabetes, in addition to causing irreversible effects on various parts of the body, also causes liver dysfunction and increases the risk of heart failure, but due to the lack of physical symptoms, less attention has been paid. So, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of 8 weeks of endurance training on diabetic indexes and myocardial GLUT4 and liver enzymes of type 2 diabetic rats.
Methods: A total number of 24 rats (220±20) were divided randomly into three groups; 1-Non-diabetic Control group (NC, n=8). 2-Diabetic Control group (D, n=8) To induce type 2 diabetes, high-fat diets were given to rats for two weeks, then streptozotocin (Aldrich company) at a dose of 37 mg / kg in citrate buffer M0.1 (PH4.5) after 6 hours of intraperitoneal fasting was injected, For the healthy control group, the same amount of buffer was injected. Also, aerobic exercise groups ran 5 times a week and 8 weeks on a motorized treadmill. Diabetic index’s, myocardial GLUT4 (Western blotting) and liver enzymes (ELISA) of rats were measured.
Results: Endurance training significantly decreased fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance index (both P= 0.00). It also caused a significant increase in insulin (P= 0.01) and insulin sensitivity index (P= 0.00) compared to the diabetic control group. On the other hand, the amount of GLUT4 in the training group increased significantly (P= 0.01). The results also showed that in comparison with the diabetic control group, ALT and AST did not increase significantly in diabetics with endurance training (P= 0.30, P= 0.5, respectively).
Conclusion: Based on the results, it seems that endurance training significantly increases the level of GLUT4 in the heart and significantly decreased diabetic parameters such as fasting glucose, HOMA-IR index and liver enzymes.

Abstract
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease and a complex disorder with several micro and macro vascular complications in different parts of the body, which is associated with cardiac fibrosis. On the other hand, endurance training seems to prevent the development of cardiac fibrosis in diabetes by reducing fasting glucose levels and increasing antioxidant indices. Methods: 24 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: healthy control (NC, n=8), diabetes control (DC, n=8) and exercise diabetes (DT, n=8) after familiarization with the laboratory environment. Diabetes was induced to diabetic animals through streptozotocin injection. Training groups, performed 8 weeks of intermittent endurance training on a treadmill. Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson trichrome staining were used to check the level of fibrosis and cell disorder. Serum malondialdehyde (MDA) was measured by thiobarbituric acid spectrophotometry. Also, total serum antioxidants were measured by FRAP method.
Results: Compared to the diabetic control group, rats in the training group showed a decrease in fibrosis, fasting glucose, and also a decrease in triglyceride and total cholesterol (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results, it seems that Endurance training in diabetic Rats prevents the development of cardiac fibrosis caused by diabetes by reducing fasting blood sugar, lipid profile and increasing total antioxidants. However, more studies are needed.
