Effect of Acute Endurance Exercise on Circulating Angiogenic Cell and Microparticle Subpopulations

Short‐term exercise training reduces glycaemic variability and lowers circulating endothelial microparticles in overweight and obese women at elevated risk of type 2 diabetes

“…This further suggests that exercise training may alter EMPs, and highlight potential differences between acute exercise and short-term training in women. In the previously mentioned studies (Durrer et al, 2015;Lansford, 2016) and in agreement with our results, short bouts of exercise (from a single bout up to two weeks of exercise) had no effect on CD31+ EMPs in females. Whether there is a minimum threshold for exercise volume or intensity to affect EMPs, and the time course for changes, appears to warrant further investigation.…”

“…In one study, it was shown that six months of aerobic exercise training reduced CD62E+ EMPs by ∼38% and ∼59% in overweight/obese, sedentary and non-diabetic African Americans with low or high levels of inflammation, respectively (Kretzschmar et al, 2017). Landsford et al have shown that a short bout of continuous training increased CD62E+ EMPs up to 120 min post-exercise (with pronounced results in men but not women) compared to baseline levels (Lansford, 2016). Conversely, this same research group showed that acute continuous exercise, but not interval training, led to reductions in CD62E+ EMPs, with potential greater effects in women compared to men (Shill et al, 2018).…”
