“…inflammation, reactive oxygen species, hypoxia) have been shown to alter circulating MPs, but the extent to which these factors contribute to the rate of MP shedding or clearance is not completely understood (Ayers et al., ; Curtis et al., ; Dignat‐George & Boulanger, ; Hoyer et al., ). Generally, results have varied with regard to the magnitude and direction of exercise‐induced changes in MP concentrations, probably owing to the diversity among exercise protocols (Durrer et al., ; Guiraud et al., ; Lansford et al., ; Mobius‐Winkler et al., ; Serviente et al., ; Sossdorf, Otto, Claus, Gabriel, & Lösche, , ; Wilhelm, Gonzalez‐Alonso, Parris, & Rakobowchuk, ). As previous investigations have used a variety of exercise protocols, it seems plausible that exercise mode, intensity and duration all influence the degree of variation in MP concentrations (Durrer et al., ; Guiraud et al., ; Lansford et al., ; Mobius‐Winkler et al., ; Serviente et al., ; Sossdorf et al., , ; Wilhelm et al., ).…”
