Inflammatory markers in response to interval and continuous exercise in obese women

Obesity is strongly associated with the degree of inflammation characterised by proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumour necrosis factor-? (TNF-?). Lifestyle modification exercise right strategy because it can stimulate interleukin 6 (IL-6) secretion which acts an anti-inflammatory. This study aimed to analyse response interval and continuous inflammatory markers in obese women. Twenty-four women participated this were randomly divided into 3 groups: CONG (n=8, control group without any intervention): MCEG group) MIEG group). ELISA was used measure levels IL-6 TNF-?, pre-exercise post-exercise. The data analysed using paired sample t-test. mean post-exercise, 19.35±2.73 vs 19.36±2.23 pg/ml (P=0.989) CONG, 19.42±2.79 16.63±0.82 (P=0.017) MCEG, 19.46±3.08 16.96±2.11 (P=0.079) MIEG. Mean IL-6, 7.56±2.88 7.66±4.12 (P=0.957) for 7.68±3.41 13.97±2.38 (P=0.001) 7.78±1.99 13.66±3.55 We concluded that decreased pro-inflammatory increased anti-inflammatory cytokines.
