Abstract

Background & Objectives: Prevalence of diabetes is increasing in worldwide and because of unfavorable effects of pharmaceutical drugs, there is a clear need to very few side effects therapeutic methods such as medicinal plants consumption and exercises. Aim of present study was to review the hypoglycemic interactional effects of saffron (crocus sativus) extract and swimming training in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Methods: In this experimental research from 50 sprague dawley diabetic rats which induced by 60 mg/kg streptozotocin, 32 rats with more than 300 mg/dL fasting glucose selected as statistical sample and base on their fasting glucose divided into four groups of 8 rats (1) saffron extract, (2) swimming training, (3) saffron extract with swimming training and (4) control. Groups 1 and 3 received four weeks intraperitoneal25 mg/kg saffron extract. Also, groups 2 and 3 swam four weeks, five sessions per week for 30 minutes per-session. For statistical analysis of data used Kolmogorov-Smirnov, dependent t test, one way ANOVA and tukey post hoc tests (p�0.05). Results: Four weeks swimming training has significant effect on reduction fasting glucose of diabetic rats (p=0.04). Four weeks saffron extract has significant effect on reduction fasting glucose (p=0.02), insulin (p=0.001) and insulin resistance (p=0.001) of diabetic rats. Four weeks saffron extract with swimming training has significant effect on reduction fasting glucose, insulin and insulin resistance of diabetic rats (p=0.001). Saffron extract with swimming training rather than swimming training has significant effect on reduction fasting glucose, insulin and insulin resistance of diabetic rats (p=0.001) also, four weeks saffron extract rather than swimming training has significant effect on reduction insulin and insulin resistance of diabetic rats (p=0.001). Conclusion: Regards to results of present study, it concluded that saffron aqua extract with swimming training has hypoglycemic interactional effects in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats.
