Combined Aerobic and Resistance Exercise Training Reduces Acute Exercise‐Induced Platelet‐Monocyte Complex Formation in Overweight, Postmenopausal Women
Abstract:Inactivity‐related diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) involve a complex interplay among endothelial cells, leukocytes and activated platelets in response to vascular injury. Activated platelets are involved in atherogenesis and can promote an inflammatory phenotype of both the vasculature and leukocytes, particularly monocytes. Platelet‐monocyte complexes (PMCs) are markers of in vivo platelet activation and may be early indicators of subclinical inflammation.PURPOSETo examine the influence of combi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
