Book Immune Function in Sport and Exercise

Download or read book Immune Function in Sport and Exercise written by Michael Gleeson and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. Designed to help readers understand and evaluate the relationship between exercise, immune function and infection risk, this book presents evidence for the "J-shaped" relationship between exercise load and infection risk. It also describes the components of the human immune system and key functions that protect the body from disease, the impact of acute and chronic psychological stress on immune function, and practical guidelines for minimizing the risk of immunodepression and infection in athletes. Further chapters explore different ways of measuring immune function, as well as the effects of heavy training on innate and specific (acquired) immunity, exercise in environmental extremes, and nutrition. Connections between exercise, infection risk, and immune function in special populations (elderly, obese, diabetic and HIV patients) are also addressed. Authored by a team of highly experienced experts. The "J-shaped" relationship between exercise load and infection risk is described, backed by current research and evidence. Components of the immune system and normal immune function are explained in detail, as well as methods for measuring immune function. The impact of acute and chronic psychological stress on immune function is presented, along with suggestions for minimizing the risk of immunodepression and infection in athletes. The effects of heavy training, exercise in environmental extremes, and nutrition are discussed with regard to their impact on innate and specific (acquired) immunity. Immune function in special populations (elderly, obese, diabetic and HIV patients) is also addressed, exploring links between exercise and infection risk in these groups. Evidence-based coverage includes a list of references in each chapter, as well as suggestions for further reading that direct readers to important texts and review articles. Information is presented in an easily accessible format, following a logical progression of material. LEach chapter begins with a list of learning objectives and ends with a list of key points to reinforce learning. A glossary at the end of the book defines all key terms and abbreviations.

Book Anti inflammatory Effects of Cardiovascular Exercise

Download or read book Anti inflammatory Effects of Cardiovascular Exercise written by Victoria Jeanne Vieira and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2009 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic consumption of a diet high in saturated fat (HFD) combined with a sedentary lifestyle has led to the obesity epidemic and its associated metabolic complications. At the heart of the metabolic aberrations that lead to obesity-associated diseases is inflammation that occurs in the visceral white adipose tissue (WAT). Reducing WAT inflammation, even in the absence of body weight changes, improves the metabolic consequences of obesity, highlighting the importance of the physiology of the WAT in the treatment of metabolic diseases. Exercise (EX) has been shown to reduce systemic inflammation, and this effect may be mediated by an EX-associated reduction in WAT inflammation. The overarching hypothesis of this work was that EX lowers inflammation in the visceral WAT as well as in the periphery, and that the mechanism involves, but is not fully explained by, a reduction in visceral WAT. This hypothesis was tested using one human intervention trial and two animal studies. In the first study, previously sedentary older adults participated in 10 months of cardiovascular (Cardio) or non-cardiovascular (Flex) EX. Cardio experienced significant improvements in fitness, systemic inflammation (as measured by serum C-reactive protein, CRP), as well as total and central (i.e., trunk) fat. Only the decrease in trunk fat was significantly related to the reduction in CRP, suggesting that the mechanism behind the anti-inflammatory effect of EX may involve a reduction in visceral WAT. In the second study, Balb/c mice were fed an HFD for 12 wks and then were randomized to 1 of 4 groups where they either remained on HFD and sedentary (HFSED), were exercise trained (HFEX), switched to an LFD (LFSED), or switched to an LFD and exercise trained (HFEX) for 12 wks. LFD and EX had differential effects on WAT gene transcription (MCP-1, F4/80, IL1ra), IR, and HS. In the final animal study, C57BL/6 mice were fed an HFD for 6 wks and then were randomized to HFSED, HFEX, LFSED, or LFEX for a 6 or a 12-wk intervention. EX and LFD both decreased weight gain and relative body fat, although LFD had a more robust effect than EX. Reductions in visceral WAT explained the decreases in WAT inflammation, IR, and HS seen at 6 wks. However, by 12 wks, unique independent effects of EX and LFD emerged such that both treatments reduced WAT inflammation and metabolic complications. WAT macrophage infiltration was the most important independent predictor of IR whereas visceral fat mass most strongly predicted HS. In summary, there are unique metabolic consequences of a sedentary lifestyle and chronic consumption of an HFD. Both LFD and EX are critically important behavioral strategies to improve WAT health and whole body metabolic function.

  • ISBN : 113645585X
  • Pages : 581 pages

Download or read book Exercise Immunology written by Michael Gleeson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercise immunology is an important, emerging sub-discipline within exercise physiology, concerned with the relationship between exercise, immune function and infection risk. This book offers a comprehensive, up-to-date and evidence-based introduction to exercise immunology, including the physiological and molecular mechanisms that determine immune function and the implications for health and performance in sport and everyday life. Written by a team of leading exercise physiologists, the book describes the characteristics of the immune system and how its components are organised to form an immune response. It explains the physiological basis of the relationship between stress, physical activity, immune function and infection risk, and identifies the ways in which exercise and nutrition interact with immune function in athletes and non-athletes. The book shows students how to evaluate the strengths and limitations of the evidence linking physical activity, immune system integrity and health, and explains why exercise is associated with anti-inflammatory effects that are potentially beneficial to long-term health. Every chapter includes useful features, such as clear summaries, definitions of key terms, discussions of seminal research studies and practical guidelines for athletes on ways to minimise infection risk, with additional learning resources available on a companion website. This is an essential textbook for any course on exercise immunology or advanced exercise physiology.

Book Global Action Plan on Physical Activity 2018 2030

Download or read book Global Action Plan on Physical Activity 2018 2030 written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2019-01-21 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regular physical activity is proven to help prevent and treat noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) such as heart disease stroke diabetes and breast and colon cancer. It also helps to prevent hypertension overweight and obesity and can improve mental health quality of life and well-being. In addition to the multiple health benefits of physical activity societies that are more active can generate additional returns on investment including a reduced use of fossil fuels cleaner air and less congested safer roads. These outcomes are interconnected with achieving the shared goals political priorities and ambition of the Sustainable Development Agenda 2030. The new WHO global action plan to promote physical activity responds to the requests by countries for updated guidance and a framework of effective and feasible policy actions to increase physical activity at all levels. It also responds to requests for global leadership and stronger regional and national coordination and the need for a whole-of-society response to achieve a paradigm shift in both supporting and valuing all people being regularly active according to ability and across the life course. The action plan was developed through a worldwide consultation process involving governments and key stakeholders across multiple sectors including health sports transport urban design civil society academia and the private sector.

  • Author : Michael Berk
  • Publisher : Springer Nature
  • Release : 2021-08-14
  • ISBN : 303071229X
  • Pages : 438 pages

Download or read book Immuno Psychiatry written by Michael Berk and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a thorough and critical review of current knowledge on the role of immunology in major psychiatric disorders and its potential applications. The opening chapters offer general information on the immune influence of the brain to provide readers with a better understanding of the end of immune privilege. The book then examines possible underlying mechanisms leading to psychiatric disorders, from early infections to pro-inflammatory markers, stress, and immune genetic background, linking etiology and psychiatry. The third section describes each disorder (ie autism, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression...) with an overview of underlying immune dysfunctions. Lastly, the authors discuss the innovative immune-therapies that may result from the discovery of immune system biomarkers and their associated mechanisms. A better understanding of the role of the immune system in psychiatric disorders makes it possible to identify stratification biomarkers, to explain underlying mechanisms, and to develop innovative, efficient, targeted treatment strategies and management. As such, the book is of value to clinicians, mental health professionals, mental health researchers, immunologists, industry practitioners, and various stakeholders in the mental health field.
