: Old age is associated with a loss of motor functions and a general progressive decline in cognitive functions. Physical exercise is one of the ways in which inflammatory levels in general can be reduced, and therefore physical exercise can be considered a biological aging decelerator. In this article we examine the relationships between physical exercise and inflammatory markers reported for the different physical exercise protocols that have been used in studies with older individuals, as well as the effects of these regimens. The different types of exercises programmed, and methods used to implement them were very heterogeneous in the articles we analysed. Both, the aerobic exercise and resistance training protocols produced a decrease in plasma levels of IL-6, CRP and TNF-α, and an increase of IL10 plasma levels as a chronic effect. However, the acute-response of physical exercise appeared to be an initial increase in IL-6 expression and plasma IL-6 levels. Continuing with these exercise programs usually subsequently achieved a chronic response in which there was a decrease in both the basal levels of IL-6, CRP and TNF-α, and the IL-6 produced as acute responses. Regardless of the type of exercise performed, it seems that the exercise parameters, intensity, duration, subject variables, fitness, and level of inflammation are key factors in achieving the expected balance between pro-inflammatory and antiinflammatory cytokines.

Background:: Ursolic Acid (UA) is a pentacyclic triterpenoid carboxylic acid which is extracted from plants. UA may enhance the effect of Resistance Training (RT) in human. Objective: Current research was designed to show the effect of High-Intensity Resistance Training (HIRT) in the presence or absence of UA on the serum levels of irisin, CRP, IL-6 and TNF-α in the low activity men. Method:: The study included twenty-two healthy male HIRT with placebo, supplementation, and HIRT in the presence of UA supplementation. The two groups received eight-week intervention including 2 sets of 8 exercises, with 8~10 repetitions at 70~75% of 1 repetition maximum and a 2 min rest interval between sets, performed 3 times/week. Placebo or UA orally was evaluated as 1 capsule 3 times/day during 8 weeks. The subsequent factors were measured post- and preintervention: C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Irisin, Tumor Necrotic Factor (TNF-α) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6). Results:: UA supplementation significantly increased the plasma levels of irisin in the HIRT+UA group versus the HIRT+P group (p<0.05). UA treatment also dramatically decreased the plasma levels of CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α in the HIRT+UA group versus the HIRT+P group (p<0.05). Conclusion:: The current data showed that UA-induced an increase in serum irisin and reduction of CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α may have beneficial effects as a chemical for increasing of the effects of HIRT in low activity men.

Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is an inflammatory process that can be attenuated by lung protective ventilation strategies. Our objectives to further investigate the pathogenesis of ALI and VILI and the mechanism of lung protection in these syndromes were: 1) to determine if plasma measurements of soluble TNF receptor I (sTNFRI) and II (sTNFRII) would predict the development of ALI and mortality in a small single center trial; 2) to test the predictive value of these markers and of TNF-α in a larger, broader group of patients with ALI; 3) to test the hypothesis that low tidal volume ventilation (LTVV) would be associated with a decrease in plasma levels of TNF-α, sTNFRI, and sTNFRII. In the single center study, sTNFRI and II levels were higher in patients at risk for and with ALI, but they did not predict the development of the syndrome. In the multicenter trial sTNFRI and II were strongly associated with mortality (OR 5.76/1 log10 increment in receptor level; 95% CI 2.63–12.6 and OR 2.58; 95% CI 1.05–6.31, respectively) and morbidity measured as fewer nonpulmonary organ failure-free and ventilator-free days. The LTVV strategy was associated with an attenuation of plasma sTNFRI levels. In vitro, stimulated A549 cells release sTNFRI but not sTNRFII. In conclusion, plasma levels of sTNFRI and II can serve as biomarkers for morbidity and mortality in patients with ALI. Furthermore, LTVV is associated with a specific decrease in sTNFRI levels. This suggests that one beneficial effect of LTVV may be to attenuate alveolar epithelial injury.

Abstract The effect of selective block of α2-adrenoreceptors on plasma levels of tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and corticosterone induced by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was investigated in mice using ELISA and RIA. It was found that the LPS-induced TNF-α response was significantly blunted in mice pretreated with CH-38083, a novel and highly selective α2-adrenoreceptor antagonist (the α2/α1 ratio is >2000). In contrast, LPS-induced increases in both corticosterone and IL-6 plasma levels were further increased by CH-38083. Since it has recently been shown that the selective block of α2-adrenoreceptors located on noradrenergic axon terminals resulted in an increase in the release of noradrenaline (NA), both in the central and peripheral nervous systems, and, in our experiments, that propranolol prevented the effect of α2-adrenoreceptor blockade on TNF-α plasma levels induced by LPS, it seems likely that the excessive stimulation by NA of β-adrenoreceptors located on cytokine-secreting immune cells is responsible for this action. Since it is generally accepted that increased production of TNF-α is involved in the pathogenesis of inflammation and endotoxin shock on the one hand, and corticosterone and even IL-6 are known to possess anti-inflammatory properties on the other hand, it is suggested that the selective block of α2-adrenoreceptors might be beneficial in the treatment of inflammation and/or endotoxin shock.

IntroductionAbnormal vasopressin (VP) and oxytocin (OT) signaling may contribute to the altered activity of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in major depression; the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain.ObjectiveThis study characterized plasma levels and affinities of OT-and VP-reactive autoantibodies (autoAbs) with relation to disease severity and plasma cortisol response to physical exercise in patients with mild and moderate depression and healthy controls.MethodsPhysical exercise was used to elicit plasma cortisol response in 23 male depressive and 20 healthy subjects. All subjects were evaluated by the MADRS. Plasma levels VP-and OT-reactive IgG, IgA and IgM autoAbs were measured by ELISA, before and after the exercise, and affinity was measured by plasmon resonance.ResultsPlasma levels of OT-and VP-reactive total IgG autoAbs were lower in patients with moderate depression vs. controls and patients with mild depression. Both OT- and VP- free IgG autoAbs levels were negatively correlated with MADRS scores. Affinity values displayed 100 fold variability in both groups. Patients with moderate depression displayed blunted response of cortisol secretion to physical exercise. Baseline levels of VP total IgG and IgM autoAbs correlated negatively and of VP free IgG autoAbs correlated positively with plasma cortisol after physical exercise.ConclusionThese data show that changes of levels but not affinity of OT- and VP- reactive autoantibodies can be associated with the altered mood in subjects with moderate depression and that levels of VP-reactive autoAbs are associated with cortisol secretion.

Heart failure (HF) is a syndrome with multiple clinical phenotypes affecting around 1%–2% of adult population worldwide, and about 230 million Chinese are affected by cardiovascular diseases. The important role of pro-inflammatory plasma cytokines with HF has been demonstrated in different populations. The aim of this study was to investigate importance of pro-inflammatory cytokines in Chinese HF patients. In all, 134 HF patients were enrolled in this study and further classified in to four clinical distinct groups according to New York Heart Association classification criteria (NYHA-I: n = 34, NYHA-II: n = 35, NYHA-III: n = 22 and NYHA-IV: n = 43). Sixty-eight healthy Chinese were enrolled as controls. Plasma levels of tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), TNF-receptor 1 (TNFRI), TNF-receptor 2 (TNFRII), interleukin 6 (IL-6), soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R), C-reactive protein (CRP), soluble cluster of differentiation 14 (sCD14) and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Plasma levels of all parameters investigated in this study remained comparable among healthy controls and NYHA-I group. Plasma levels of TNF-α, TNFRI, TNFRII, IL-6, sIL-6R, CRP, sCD14 and IL-1β were significantly higher in NYHA-III and NYHA-IV clinical categories compared to other HF phenotype (NYHA-I and NYHA-II). Interestingly, TNFR-II levels were significantly higher in NYHA-II compared to NYHA-I. No significant difference of plasma sIL-6R was observed among various clinical categories. In conclusion, plasma levels of pro-inflammatory molecules are elevated in severe HF patients and may be used as possible biomarkers for accessing severity of HF.

The aim of the present study was to determine the rates of stroke in patients with chronic NVAF (non-valvular atrial fibrillation), evaluating the relationship between plasma levels of inflammatory variables at admission and the occurrence of stroke during a 3-year follow-up. A total of 373 consecutive patients with chronic NVAF were enrolled. Blood samples were drawn within 72 h of admission, and we evaluated plasma levels of IL (interleukin)-1β, TNF-α (tumour necrosis factor-α), IL-6, IL-10, E-selectin, P-selectin, ICAM-1 (intercellular adhesion molecule-1), VCAM-1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule-1) and vWF (von Willebrand Factor). Subsequent patient events (stroke at follow-up) were monitored over a 3 year period. By multivariate analysis, only age, hypertension and high levels of IL-6, TNF-α and vWF remained significant predictors of a higher risk of experiencing ischaemic stroke at follow-up. Moreover, plasma values of TNF-α, IL-6 and vWF had a significant area under the ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curve. In conclusion, baseline plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and vWF are predictors of new-onset ischaemic stroke at follow-up in patients with chronic NVAF.

Using an evaluative priming procedure, this study tested whether automatic evaluations of running differ among groups based on their amount of exercise and whether they were runners or not. Ninety-five participants (26 ± 5.06 years; 46% female) were divided into five groups: an inactive group, active exercisers, highly active exercisers, active runners, and highly active runners. A priming effect score was calculated based on the concept of response facilitation or inhibition: the reaction is faster when the target and prime are valence congruent and becomes slower if they are incongruent. The highly active runner group differed significantly from the inactive group (p < .01) and from the active exerciser group (p < .05). Furthermore, reflective evaluations were measured via questionnaires. The results show that priming effect scores can detect automatic evaluations of running, and they differ not only because of the amounts of physical exercise but also because of their preferred type of exercise.
