Effect of exercise and high-fat diet on plasma adiponectin and nesfatin levels in mice

Lifestyle-related diseases are associated with overeating and lack of exercise. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise and high-fat diet on plasma adiponectin and nesfatin levels. Mice were housed for 4 weeks in 4 groups, which included the non-exercise and normal diet (SN), exercise and normal diet (EN), non-exercise and high-fat diet (SF) and the exercise and high-fat diet (EF) group. The mice in the exercise groups were housed in cages with a running wheel and were subjected to voluntary exercise. The food intake (Kcal) of the mice in the exercise groups increased compared to that of the mice in the non-exercise groups (P
