Background and Objectives: Caraway (Carum carvi) is one of the medicinal plants which is traditionally used for weight loss. The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of 6 weeks aerobic training and aqueous extract of caraway seed (carum carvi) on expression of CTRP12 gene, body weight changes and subcutaneous adipose tissue in obese male rats.
Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 24 fat male rats were provided a high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce obesity, following which they were divided randomly into four groups: 1. high-fat control diet, 2. high-fat diet+ exercise, 3. high-fat diet+caraway, 4. high-fat diet+exercise+caraway. The training groups performed aerobic exercise 5 days in week for 6 weeks (approximately 50-70% VO2max). Relative expression of CTRP12 mRNA was measured using real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR), body weight changes and subcutaneous adipose tissue. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post hoc test.
Results: Relative expression of CTRP12 mRNA significantly increased after 6 weeks of aerobic training and consumption of carum carvi extract in group 4 compared to groups 1 and 3, in group 1 compared to group 2, and animal weight and subcutaneous fat weight in groups 4, 3 and 2 significantly decreased compared to group 1.
Conclusions: Considering the results of the present study, it is recommended to use moderate aerobic exercise and carum carvi to reduce the risk of obesity and weight.
