Deleterious effects of short-term, high-intensity exercise on immune function: evidence from leucocyte mitochondrial alterations and apoptosis

Abstract: Background: Although moderate exercise can benefit health, acute and vigorous exercise may have the opposite effect. Strenuous exercise can induce alterations in the physiology and viability of circulating leucocytes, which have a causal relationship with exercise-induced immune distress. Objectives: To investigate the use of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MTP), a functional marker of the energy and viability status of leucocytes, for monitoring the immunomodulating effects of short-term, high-intensit… Show more

“…Cytokines systemically released during physical training could influence the wounds locally. It is possible that the anti-inflammatory cytokine balance experienced by the animals trained at moderate intensity (27) would be able to reduce the amount of inflammatory cells in the granulation tissue. In fact, animals that trained at 80% VO 2max (H/E lesion and H/E euthan ) also presented a reduction of the inflammatory infiltrate in the granulation tissue.…”

“…In fact, animals that trained at 80% VO 2max (H/E lesion and H/E euthan ) also presented a reduction of the inflammatory infiltrate in the granulation tissue. On the other hand, strenuous physical training may induce inflammatory reactions and immune disturbances because of the increased concentrations of pro-inflammatory mediators (27).…”

“…However, the isolated CD95 measurement is not a marker of apoptotic cells. A few prior reports described that short-term high-intensity repeated exercise induced lymphocyte apoptosis assessed by Annexin V or DNA fragmentation (Hsu et al 2002;Tuan et al 2007). The alteration of apoptosis may depend on the exercise intensity and the trained status of subjects (Hsu et al 2002;Mooren et al 2002).…”

“…Previous reports have described that short-term high-intensity repeated exercise increased lymphocyte apoptosis indices (Hsu et al 2002;Tuan et al 2007). However, those studies did not examine lymphocyte count alteration.…”

“…Furthermore, high-intensity repeated exercise decreases lymphocyte counts (Malm et al 2004). Shortterm repeated exercise increases oxidative stress and lymphocyte-apoptosis indices (Hsu et al 2002;Shing et al 2007;Tuan et al 2007). Consequently, decreased lymphocyte counts after short-term repeated exercise might also result from increased oxidative DNA damage and/or lymphocyte apoptosis.…”
