Intense physical exercise induces an anti-inflammatory change in IgG N-glycosylation profile.
PMID: Front Physiol. 2019 ;10:1522. Epub 2019 Dec 20. PMID: 31920720 Abstract Title: Intense Physical Exercise Induces an Anti-inflammatory Change in IgG N-Glycosylation Profile. Abstract: Exercise is known to improve many aspects of human health, including modulation of the immune system and inflammatory status. It is generally understood that exercise reduces inflammation, but there are …
The regular practice of physical activity exerts beneficial effects on body composition and the anti-inflammatory status of old people
PMID: Nutrients. 2018 Nov 16 ;10(11). Epub 2018 Nov 16. PMID: 30453505 Abstract Title: Regular Practice of Moderate Physical Activity by Older Adults Ameliorates Their Anti-Inflammatory Status. Abstract: A chronic inflammatory state is a major characteristic of the aging process, and physical activity is proposed as a key component for healthy aging. Our aim was …
Successfully improving walking time shifts innate immune function towards a less proinflammatory state.
PMID: J Am Heart Assoc. 2019 Nov 5 ;8(21):e013764. Epub 2019 Oct 18. PMID: 31623506 Abstract Title: Sixteen-Week Physical Activity Intervention in Subjects With Increased Cardiometabolic Risk Shifts Innate Immune Function Towards a Less Proinflammatory State. Abstract: Background Low-grade inflammation, largely mediated by monocyte-derived macrophages, contributes to atherosclerosis. Sedentary behavior is associated with atherosclerosis and …
Physical activity and diet shape the immune system during aging.
PMID: Nutrients. 2020 Feb 28 ;12(3). Epub 2020 Feb 28. PMID: 32121049 Abstract Title: Physical Activity and Diet Shape the Immune System during Aging. Abstract: With increasing age, the immune system undergoes a remodeling process, termed immunosenescence, which is accompanied by considerable shifts in leukocyte subpopulations and a decline in various immune cell functions. Clinically, …
