Muscle inflammation or myositis is a general description of chronic and progressive inflammation involving muscles. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of increased training with marjoram supplementation on muscle inflammatory indices in healthy rats.

In this study, 27 rats of about two months (200-250 g) were randomly divided into three groups: control, endurance training and endurance training + marjoram. They got rat were kept in groups of 9 in conditions of free access to water and food. The treadmill endurance training program was performed for eight weeks, five days a week, without slope, and for the first to third week of each session for 40 minutes, and in the eighth week for 60 minutes. Marjoram supplement was given to the rat in the supplement group using a mixture of water. Findings were analyzed spss at the significance level (p = 0.05).

The results showed that there was a significant difference between the three groups in the amount of TNFα, IL-6, CK. The results of Tukey post hoc test showed that the rate of inflammatory markers after exercise without supplementation increased significantly, which was significantly lower in the endurance + marjoram group than the control group. Also, the results showed that there was a difference between the endurance and endurance training groups with marjoram and the control group.

Increased endurance training with marjoram consumption probably increases the total oxidative capacity.

Prostatitis can occur at any age, after its enlargement, it puts pressure on the urinary tracts and causes urinary symptoms.  Factors influencing the prevalence of prostatitis include age, genetic, diet, cancer, hormonal factors, and environmental factors. A microbial infection often causes prostatitis. In this systematic review, we tried to report the most important herbal medicines that have been mentioned for prostate treatment in Iranian ethnobotanical documents.   Some keywords have been used, such as prostate, prostate inflammation, medicinal plants, ethnobotany, identification of medicinal plants. Also some Iranian Databases have been used, such as ISI Web Science, PubMed, Scopus, ISC, SID, and Google Scholar to review articles and resources. Ethnobotanical knowledge has a solution for treating this disease. Based on the results obtained in Iranian ethnobotanical documents, Lamium album L., Origanum vulgare, Silybum marianum (L.) Gaerth., Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers., Polygonum aviculare L., Urtica dioica L., Alhagi persarum Boiss. & Buhse., Eremurus persicus (Jaub. & Spach) Boiss., Gundelia tournefortii, Myrtus communis L., Tribulus Terrestris L., and Physalis divaricata D. Don are the most important herbal medicines used in Iranian ethnobotanical sources for prostate treatment. Aim of this systematic review, was to report the most important medicinal plants for prostatitis treatment mentioned in Iranian ethnobotanical documents.

Obesity is the biggest public health challenge of the current century, and the health departments of most countries in the world are involved in the problems and complications of increasing obesity and identifying the mechanisms involved. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two months aerobic training and olive extract supplementation on IL-1β and NLRP3 in obese male rats.

In experimental research, twenty-four male rats with two months of age were fed high fat diet for 8 weeks to reach a mean weight of 320±30. Then they were randomly divided into four groups (control group, endurance training group, olive oil supplementation group and endurance training and olive oil supplementation group). Olive oil supplementation (Oos) and aerobic training (AE) (at 80% of VO2max) were conducted for two months. The IL-1β and NLRP3 levels were measured by ELISA method. The data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA at 95% confidence level.

Both AE and Oos and their combination reduced IL-1β levels with greater changes observed in both training groups (P<0.05). The NLRP3 was only decreased in the combination of AE and Oos groups and the Oos and ET were failed to change this factor level.

Exercise training and Olive oil consumption could be beneficial in lowering inflammation in obese subject, however; more research remains to be done because of the lack of similar evidence and also limitations in the study.

Apoptosis plays an important role in the development of cardiovascular diseases, especially heart failure. Some evidences suggest that exercise training may alter apoptosis-related signaling in somatic tissues such as the myocardium. The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of 12 weeks of treadmill aerobic training on cytochrome c and caspase-9 gene expression in cardiac muscle of male rats.
This study was conducted as a two-group experimental design project (animal model) on 16 3-month-old male rats. Animals were randomly divided into two homogeneous groups of aerobic training and control (8 animals each). Animals of the training group underwent an aerobic training program for 12 weeks (75-80% VO2max). Forty-eight hours after the last training session, their hearts were extracted and cytochrome c and caspase-9 genes, were evaluated by RT-PCR. Data were analyzed using independent t-test at the significance level of p Cytochrome c gene expression in the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (140.62%, p Overall, it seems that 2-weeks of aerobic training on treadmill has a significant effect on the increased the expression of key genes of the cardiac mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. However, the underlying mechanisms of these effects are unclear and require further researches.

Related reviews reveal that the impact of obestatin (with or without exercise) on the level of ghrelin has not been investigated. The present study investigates the possible effect of intraperitoneally (IP)-administrated obestatin and short-term exercise on serum acyl-ghrelin and body weight in rats.
In present experimental study forty-five male rats weighing 100 ± 5 g were divided into five groups; Group 1: control group was normally reared, and did not receive any injections or exercise. Group 2 (placebo) was treated with basal solution (50 mL distilled water). Group 3 was referred to as obestatin group which was subjected to double-injection during the test with obestatin (10 μg obestatin/ rat). Group 4 was known as treadmill group which was subjected to treadmill exercise. Finally, group 5, known as obestatin /treadmill group (OT), was subjected to injection with obestatin and treadmill exercise. The exercise groups were trained for 3 weeks (run at 25 m/min for 60 minutes, 5 days/week).The data were analyzed with SPSS software version 16.
Two main parameters include body weight gain and serum acyl-ghrelin was assayed. The results indicate that body weight and ghrelin level in obestatin and OT groups did not significant changes compared with the control group (P It was found that whereas short-term treadmill exercise significantly reduces serum acyl-ghrelin, IP-administration of obestatin had no significant impact on serum acyl-ghrelin and final body weight. The short-term treadmill exercise reduced weight gain rate. The results of the study indicated that the combination of obestatin injection and treadmill exercise had no significant impact on the measured variables.
