Exercise is fundamental to healthy aging, yet the degree to which it mitigates age-related molecular changes and how varying physical fitness levels influence the molecular response to exercise with age remain unclear. To address this, we performed transcriptomics, lipidomics, and metabolomics on...
Thoroughbred (TB) racehorses are subjected to rigorous conditioning programs involving exercise sessions of various types, distances and intensities. These programs aim to optimize both their physical and mental capabilities, which are essential to achieve maximal performance. Conventional invest...
Using untargeted metabolomics, we aimed to characterise the systemic impact of environmental heat stress during exercise. Twenty-three trained male triathletes completed a 30-min exercise test in hot (35°C) and temperate (21°C) conditions. Venous blood samples were collected immediately pre- and ...
Exercise enhances physical performance and reduces the risk of many disorders such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and cancer. Exercise characteristically incites an inflammatory response, notably in skeletal muscles. While some effector mechanisms have been identified, regul...
Healthy behavioral patterns could modulate organ functions to enhance the body’s immunity. However, whether exercise regulates antiviral innate immunity remains elusive. Here, we found that exercise promotes type-I IFN (IFN-I) production in the liver and enhances IFN-I immune activity of the body...
Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in resisting the invasion of pathogens, particularly multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, which pose a significant threat to public health. While exercise offers numerous health benefits, its impact on host colonization resistance remains largely unclear. In thi...
