Muscle Trauma and Immune Activation after a Downhill Marathon (Tyrolean Speed Marathon)

Muscle Trauma and Immune Activation after a Downhill Marathon (Tyrolean Speed Marathon)

Prolonged physical exercise is associated with multiple changes in the immune status indicating an acute phase response and an activation of the immune system. Eccentric muscle activation (e.g. downhill running) induces micro-trauma of skeletal muscles thus inducing an inflammatory response. At pres...
