Abstract

Both exhaustive physical exertion and starvation have been reported to induce depression of immune function. The aim of the present study was to investigate the inflammatory environment and state of activation and mediator-producing potential of circulating leukocytes during prolonged physical activity with concomitant energy and sleep deprivation. Eight well-trained males were studied during 7 days of semi-continuous physical activity. Sleep was restricted to about 1 h/24 h, energy intake to 1.5- 3.0 MJ/24 h. Blood was drawn at 07.00 A.M.: on days 0, 2, 4, and 7. Plasma levels of inflammation markers were measured. The response of circulating leukocytes to lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 1 microg mL(-1)), and the effect of added hydrocortisone (10 and 100 nmol L(-1)), were measured in the supernatant after 3 h of incubation in an ex vivo whole blood model. Activation of leukocytes steadily increased as measured by plasma matrix metalloproteinase-9, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interleukin-6. Inhibitors of systemic inflammation were either unaltered (tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1) or elevated (plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist). Cortisol levels increased on days 2 and 4, but thereafter r...Continue Reading

Anti-inflammatory Treatments

A drug or substance that reduces inflammation (redness, swelling, and pain) in the body. Anti-inflammatory agents block certain substances in the body that cause inflammation and swelling. Discover the latest research on anti-inflammatory treatments here
