Metabolic syndrome (MetS) clusters cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, along with hypogonadism (HG) and erectile dysfunction (ED). Lifestyle modifications, including physical exercise (PhyEx), are well-known treatments for this condition. We previously established a non-genomic, high-fat diet (HFD)-induced rabbit model of MetS that recapitulates the human phenotype, including HG and ED. We now report studies on the effect of PhyEx on hypothalamus-pituitary-testis (HPT) ...
