Effect of exercise on expression of protein kinase B in adipose tissue of rats / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo observe the effect of exercise on expression of protein kinase B (PKB) in adipose tissue of insulin resistant rats fed by high fat diet.Methods30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group (n=10),given basic diet; the model group (n=20), given fat diet. After 4 weeks, the model group was randomly divided into 2 subgroups, the insulin resistant group was continually given high fat diet, the exercise treated group accepted high fat food and swimming training. After 6 week intervention, the expression of PKB stimulated by insulin in adipose tissue was determined with Western blotting at the end of experiment.ResultsAfter long term high fat diet, expression of PKB in adipose tissue of the insulin resistant group decreased by 23.5% comparing with the control group (P<0.01). After 6 weeks swimming training, the expression of PKB of the exercise treated group was increased by 19.2% comparing with the insulin resistant group (P<0.01).ConclusionExercise treatment can significantly elevate the expression of PKB and ameliorate the state of insulin resistance.
