Aim:. The purpose of this study was to investigate The effect of eight weeks of increasing resistance training and BCAA nanoliposome supplementation on MiR-200a, HSP60, soleus muscle mitochondrial gene expression and serum IGF-1 in aged male rats.Methods: 32 old male were randomly divided into 4 groups: control, supplement (BCAA), combined (resistant training + BCAA) and exercise. Resistance training consisted of eight weeks of ladder training with moderate intensity (70% of MVCC) and five days a week. Rats in the supplement and combined groups received BCAA nanoliposome supplement at the rate of 600 mg per kilogram of body weight by gavage 5 days a week for 8 weeks. MiR200a and HSP60 were obtained using real-time PCR method and serum IGF-1 was obtained using ELISA method. Statistical analysis was performed with two-way, one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post hoc test.Finding: significant decrease in MiR-200a and a increase in the expression of the HSP60 gene and serum IGF-1 of rats in the combination and exercise group compared to the supplement and control groups (p=0.001)., No significant difference was observed between the control and supplement groups (p=0.105).Conclusion: The direct effect of miR-200a and HSP60 on IGF-1 signal has an important effect on muscle growth and atrophy. The increase of IGF-1 as a result of strength training and BCAA supplementation causes hypertrophy and creates an anabolic environment and can affect age-related muscle growth factors and can bring benefits in this regard for the elderly.Keywords: Resistance training, BCAA, micro RNA, HSP60.
