Aerobic exercise attenuates high-fat diet-induced glycometabolism impairments in skeletal muscle of rat: role of EGR-1/PTP1B signaling pathway.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveImpaired skeletal muscle glycogen synthesis contributes to insulin resistance (IR). Aerobic exercise reported to ameliorate IR by augmenting insulin signaling, however the detailed mechanism behind this improvement remains unclear. This study investigated whether aerobic exercise enhances glycogen anabolism and insulin sensitivity via EGR-1/PTP1B signaling pathway in skeletal muscle of rats.
methodsSprague-Dawley rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD), and performed treadmill exercise training for 6-week. Oral glucose tolerance test was conducted to confirm the IR. Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS) staining and anthrone colorimetry were used to assess the skeletal muscle glycogen. RT-qPCR, western blot, and immunofluorescence were used to detect the EGR-1/PTP1B pathway and associated signaling molecules.
resultsWe found that exercise training significantly decreased blood glucose, insulin, and homeostasis model assessment for IR (HOMA-IR) against HFD-induced elevation. Decreased muscle glycogen content due to HFD was significantly restored after exercise training. Exercise training promoted mRNA expressions of Irs1, Akt, and Glut4, while inhibited Gsk-3β expression against HFD. Next, the decreased IRS1 (phosphorylated/total), AKT (phosphorylated/total), and GLUT4, and increased GSK-3β proteins with HFD were significantly reversed by exercise. Furthermore, HFD-induced overexpression of EGR-1 and PTP1B evidenced by mRNA, protein, and immunofluorescence intensity, were substantially inhibited by exercise, which may contribute to promote insulin sensitivity and glycogen anabolism.
conclusionsAerobic exercise training promotes insulin sensitivity and skeletal muscle glycogen synthesis in HFD-fed rats. The beneficial effects of exercise might be mediated by EGR-1/PTP1B signaling pathway in skeletal muscle, however further studies are necessary to confirm this mechanism.
