| Résumé: | Cytokines are soluble glycoproteins that mediate cotntnunication between and within
imn1une and non-imtnune cells. An alteration of cytokine production will impair the
i1nrnune response and function. Previous studies on the itnpact of exercise on cytokines
have not been conclusive. Most studies were centered on adults and there is a lack of data
about the correlation between exercise and cytokines on adolescents. The purpose of this
investigation therefore, was to detennine the effect of tnoderate exercise on some
cytokine levels in adolescence. |
