Effects of PR and aerobic exercise on leptin and adiponectin gene expression the retroperitoneal fat of ovariectomized rats: (A) leptin and (B) adiponectin. SHAM, sham operated; PR0, ovariectomized control; PR200, ovariectomized with PR200 mg/kg B.W; PR400, ovariectomized with PR400 mg/kg B.W; EPR0, ovariectomized with exercise; EPR200, ovariectomized with exercise and PR200 mg/kg B.W; EPR400, ovariectomized with exercise and PR400 mg/kg B.W. *p < 0.05 SHAM vs. PR0. Values not sharing the same letter were significantly different in the OVX group at p < 0.05.

Effects of PR and aerobic exercise on IR gene expression in the organ of ovariectomized rats: (A) liver and (B) adipose tissue. SHAM, sham operated; PR0, ovariectomized control; PR200, ovariectomized with PR200 mg/kg B.W; PR400, ovariectomized with PR400 mg/kg B.W; EPR0, ovariectomized with exercise; EPR200, ovariectomized with exercise and PR200 mg/kg B.W; EPR400, ovariectomized with exercise and PR400 mg/kg B.W; IR, insulin receptor. *p < 0.05 SHAM vs. PR0. Values not sharing the same letter were significantly different in the OVX group at p < 0.05.

*p < 0.05 SHAM vs. PR0. Values not sharing the same letter were significantly different in the OVX group at p < 0.05.
