Slow-type Interval Training and Ethanol Extract of Sarang Semut (Myrmecodia pendans) can Improve the Early Lesions of Atherosclerosis in Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus Rats
Abstract:BACKGROUND: Macrovascular complications in diabetes mellitus (DM) are the most common cause of death in DM patients. The formation of foam cells on the endothelium is an early marker of atherosclerotic lesions. Physical exercise and antidiabetic agents are an integral part of the management of DM.
AIM: The purpose of this study was to analyze the synergistic effect of slow-type interval training (STIT) and ethanol extract of Sarang Semut (EESS) on the number of foam cells in type-2 DM (T2DM) rats.
