1. Introduction

Journal of Exercise&

actually a process that begins during ischemia or aging. Reactive fibrosis indicates an increase in ECM due to direct stimulation of cardiac fibroblasts without cell damage that occurs in high blood pressure (6). Previous studies have reported the positive role of cytokine transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) in the induction of fibrosis and the expression of genes involved in it both in vitro and in vivo (7). TGF-β and its signaling pathway is known to be the most important regulator of the fibrosis process, which shows increased expression in fibrotic tissues as well as with age (8). In response to activated TGF-β, 1) fibroblast cells, which make up 60-70% of heart cells, differentiate into myofibroblasts. Myofibroblast cells, which are responsible for the production of extracellular matrix components, cause the production of large amounts of matrix components and excessive deposition of matrix proteins. 2) Activated TGF-β binds to its cell surface receptor, transmits its message to the nucleus and up-regulates the expression of collagen genes. β does not only participate in fibrosis by strengthening ECM collagen synthesis, but also by inhibiting ECM decomposition through reducing the expression of matrix degrading enzymes or increasing the expression of MMPs inhibitors, and on the other hand, it increases oxidative stress and self-activity. It is found in tissue (9,10,11). In fact, cardiac fibrosis is an important process in the reconstruction of heart structures, and aging plays an important role in its formation. TGF- Today, exercise is considered as a main non-pharmacological strategy as a kind of rehabilitation and auxiliary treatment or prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Many studies have shown the beneficial effects of exercise on the primary and secondary causes of heart diseases and cellular-molecular changes in heart tissue and have reported its benefits (12).

Aging is known as an independent and important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and mortality. Compared to the young heart, the elderly heart shows different biological characteristics and cellular-molecular processes, which include: increased apoptosis, chronic inflammation, hemodynamic changes, and tissue fibrosis (1). Fibrosis is characterized by the excessive increase of collagen in the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the heart tissue, which occurs due to the stimulation of factors involved in the increase of collagen synthesis and causes the creation of fibrotic tissue in the heart. Cardiac fibrosis in old age may involve activation of fibro genic signaling and inhibition of antifibrotic signaling, which leads to an imbalance of ECM circulation, which are involved in age-related fibrotic cardiac remodeling. Fibrotic tissue is hard and has little elasticity, which leads to dysfunction of the heart (2, 3).

This excessive accumulation of collagen hardens the ventricles, which disrupts contraction, expansion (relaxation) and double electrical stimulation of cardiac myocytes and reduces capillary density. Tissue fibrosis and reduction of capillary density increases the oxygen diffusion distance and causes myocardial ischemia, which ends in heart failure (4). Fibrosis is a common feature of many heart diseases, including myocardial infarction, ischemia, hypertrophic cardiomyopathies and heart failure (5). Fibrosis is multifactorial and can be caused by processes and factors such as ischemia, aging, and inflammation. Two different types of cardiac fibrosis have been proposed: compensatory fibrosis and reactive fibrosis. Compensatory fibrosis refers to ECM deposition that occurs during scar formation due to heart tissue damage or cell death, and is

exercise program for rehabilitation or prevention of cardiac fibrosis in the elderly, the effect of eight weeks of low-intensity resistance training on TGF-β and its signaling pathway, which is the most important cause of cardiac fibrosis associated with old age, in the left ventricular tissue We examined the hearts of elderly rats.

Therefore, research on the effectiveness of appropriate sports activities in order to improve or slow down the process of creating fibrotic tissue in the heart, which is the basis of many cardiovascular diseases in the elderly, independent of the underlying diseases due to aging, from the point of view Cellular-molecular is required. Many experts in the field of health recommend aerobic sports to improve the performance and cardiovascular structure, but the College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association stated that in addition to aerobic activities, the elderly should take care of the reduction of muscle mass and the occurrence of sarcopenia in the aging process. also benefit from resistance activities (13). The question that arises is whether doing resistance exercises can affect the process of heart fibrosis in the elderly in the direction of improvement. Therefore, he reviewed the researches, but in relation to the effect of resistance training on cardiac fibrosis in elderly rats, only one study was found, in which Gazzouni et al. (2017) found the effect of high-intensity resistance training on collagen accumulation in the left ventricle They investigated the aged Wistar rats and reported that high-intensity resistance training has a protective effect on the accumulation of collagen in the heart tissue and maintaining myocardial function (14). Therefore, considering the few available and non-reliable information regarding the effect of resistance training on cardiac fibrosis caused by old age, it is necessary and necessary to carry out research in this field, to investigate and present the most effective method of resistance training program. The opinion of the intensity and duration of its implementation on the structural changes of the heart tissue in the elderly. Therefore, in order to find the most suitable

2. Materials and Methods

The current research, which is registered with the code of ethics in the Physical Education Research Institute, is of an experimental and fundamental type with a post-test design with a control group. The statistical population was Wistar male laboratory rats, from which a statistical sample including 18 Wistar laboratory rats with an average age of 24 months was prepared from Royan Research Institute in Tehran and according to the instructions for the care and use of laboratory animals in scientific affairs approved by the Vice The research and technology of the Ministry of Health, Treatment and Medical Education were transferred to the Animal Laboratory Animal House of the Laboratory Complex of Tehran University of Science and Research. They were randomly divided into two groups of control and resistance training in equal numbers (9 heads in each group) (15). All three rats were placed in transparent polyethylene cages that were coded. All groups were fed with the same type of food for rodents (standard pellet) so that they had free access to food and water. All groups were kept in the same place with average temperature conditions of 23±3, average humidity of 50±10 and light-dark cycle of 12-12. The animals were kept for two weeks after being transferred to the laboratory to adapt to the environment. After familiarizing the training group with how to

climb the ladder for rodent resistance training, the training protocol began. Each training session consisted of eight repetitions with 60-second rest intervals for each repetition. At the beginning of each week, the weight of the animal was measured and based on the body weight, the training weight was applied, so that the amount of training weight in the first week was 5% of the body weight, and after that, 5% was added to it at the beginning of each training week. In the eighth week, it reached 45% of the animal's body weight. (16). During the research period, the control group did not do any exercises. 48 hours after the last training session at 8 am, both groups were sacrificed after induction of complete anesthesia (by intraperitoneal injection of a combination of xylazine and ketamine). After making sure that the chest was completely anesthetized, the heart was removed and washed in physiological serum, then the heart was divided into two halves by means of a transverse cut, and half of it was transferred to a microtube and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for further measurements. They were transferred to 80-degree freezer and the other half was fixed in formalin for histological studies.

Measuring the activity of antioxidant enzymes

(SOD, CAT and GPX) and measuring the amount To observe the tissue changes in the amount of collagen in the extracellular matrix of the heart tissue, a specialized Trichrome-Masson staining method was used. In this staining method, purple nuclei, red muscle cytoplasm and red erythrocytes, and blue collagen strands are observed (17).

Statistical method

SPSS version 21 statistical analysis software was used to extract the results. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to determine the normality of the data distribution, and the independent t-test was used to check the research hypotheses. The significance level was considered to be α ≥ 0.05 in all tests.

3. Results

The results of the independent t test showed that eight weeks of aerobic training in the resistance training group increased the tissue amount of SOD (P=0.02) and GPX (P=0.046), which was statistically significant. The amount of CAT (P=0.124) and TGF-β (P=0.1) increased in the heart tissue of aged rats compared to the control group, but this increase did not reach a statistically significant level (Table 1).

After eight weeks of resistance training in the training group compared to the control group, the percentage of collagen in the heart tissue of elderly rats decreased so that the amount of collagen in the heart tissue of the training group reached (22.92) percent after eight weeks of training. Compared to the control group (40.18) percent (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Comparison of tissue collagen percentage between two groups

By binding to two polypeptides, TGF-β forms a large multiple protein complex (LLC), which is called latent TGF-β complex. Secreted TGF-β is secreted from the cell to the extracellular matrix and stored there. LLC binds with other components of the extracellular matrix such as fibronectin, fibrolin-1 and provides a pool of TGF-β hidden in the matrix (19,20). Recently, oxygen free radicals have been shown to play a major and upstream role in the activation of inactive TGF-β. After activation, TGF-β binds to its receptors on the surface of cells and sends its message into the cell and increases collagen gene expression (21,22). In our research, it was shown that TGF-β increased after exercise, but this increase did not increase collagen expression, which may be due to its inactivity. Because based on the results of the research and examination of the amount of antioxidant enzymes in the heart tissue, it was shown that resistance training has caused a significant increase in the activity level of the antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT and GPX in the heart tissue that this has caused the removal of oxygen free radicals in the heart tissue, and subsequently, the reduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can prevent the activation of TGF-β and its signaling pathway, despite the increase in tissue amounts inhibit that this will reduce the expression of target genes of this signaling pathway (collagen). Therefore, the increasing effect on the activity of the body's internal antioxidant defense can be recognized as a valuable non-pharmacological treatment solution for inhibiting or modulating the process of heart tissue fibrosis due to the reduction of collagen gene expression by not activating TGF-β and inhibiting its signaling pathway in the elderly. The results of the present study showed that low-intensity resistance exercise can reduce ROS by increasing the activity of heart tissue antioxidant enzymes, which plays an important

4. Discussion

In the present study, the effect of physical activity on the signaling pathway that causes cardiac fibrosis in the elderly without underlying disease was investigated and the beneficial results of performing eight weeks of low-intensity resistance training in reducing collagen and protecting the heart against fibrosis due to aging showed The results of Masson's trichrome staining showed that performing eight weeks of exercise reduces the accumulation of collagen in the extracellular matrix of the heart, which is in line with the results of Gazzoni et al., despite the difference in the type and intensity of exercise (14). As mentioned, TGF-β is a strong stimulus for collagen synthesis in the extracellular matrix of the heart, which causes the positive regulation of collagen expression in the ECM of the heart. Therefore, reducing the expression of TGF-β and inhibiting its signaling pathway can reduce the expression of genes involved in the production of extracellular matrix collagen (8,18). Gazzoni et al.'s studies also confirmed this and stated that resistance exercise decreases TGF-β gene expression and subsequently decreases the amount of tissue collagen in the extracellular matrix of the heart, which can be a protective mechanism against cardiac fibrosis due to Age increase. However, the results of our research were contrary to the results of Gazzoni and his colleagues and showed that eight weeks of low-intensity resistance training in the training group compared to the control group increased the tissue amount of TGF-β. On the other hand, despite this increase, we saw a decrease in tissue collagen percentage, which is in line with the results of the only research. In relation to this contradiction, it can probably be said that since TGF-β has a high affinity for its receptor, it needs to be in an inactive form.

role in the formation of fibrotic tissue due to the activation of the TGF-β signaling cascade. It plays a role in old age, and the increase in tissue amount of TGF-β, which has been introduced in previous researches as a key factor in increasing collagen in fibrotic tissue, cannot play a role in increasing collagen expression.

Conclusion

Author contributions

Because the results of our research showed that contrary to the increase in the amount of tissue TGF-β, the amount of tissue collagen decreased, which indicates that other important and necessary upstream and downstream factors are involved in the fibrotic process, which has a regulatory role on the activity of this key factor and messenger. It has, but due to the lack of sufficient research in this field, there is a need for more cellular-molecular research on this signaling pathway, as well as the effect of resistance training with different intensities and training times, in order to identify upstream and downstream factors affecting the path of heart tissue fibrosis. As a result of old age.
