In humans IL‐6 is released from the brain during and after exercise and paralleled by enhanced IL‐6 mRNA expression in the hippocampus of mice
16 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
AIM: Plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) increases during exercise by release from active muscles and during prolonged exercise also from the brain. The IL-6 release from muscles continues into recovery and we tested whether the brain also releases IL-6 in recovery from prolonged exercise in humans. Additionally, it was evaluated in mice whether brain release of IL-6 reflected enhanced IL-6 mRNA expression in the brain...
