“…Moreover, ET decreased MUFA in humans (22, 23) and in rodents (20, 24); however the findings are not consistent (21, 25). The antiinflammatory impact of regular physical exercise are well documented (5,17,18) and rely on several modulatory effects, such as decreased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and macrophage recruitment and infiltration (17, 26) independently of body weight reduction (4). In addition, an increased IL-10 expression was also observed in response to ET (18, 27, 28), strengthening the anti-inflammatory effects of physical exercise.…”
