Effect of Exercise Training on Metabolic Homeostasis and Some Hemodynamics (Some Hepatic and Cardiovascular Functions) in Experimentally Induced Obesity

Abstract

Background: Obesity is associated with many chronic disorders such as type-2 diabetes mellitus, essential hypertension and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). High fat diet (HFD) induced obesity in rats is associated with altered adipocytes release of several adipocytokines. Physical exercise has also been shown to have positive effects in the prevention and attenuation of many of the obesity-related disorders, however; the mechanisms have not been fully elucidated.
