Transplantations help to partially restore renal function, however there are a number of health-related co-morbidities associated with transplantation. Cardiovascular disease (CVD), malignancy and infections all limit patient and graft survival. Immunosuppressive medications alter innate and adaptive immunity and can result in immune dysfunction. Over suppression of the immune system can result in infections whereas under suppression can result in graft rejection. Exercise is a known therapeutic intervention with many physiological benefits. Its effects on immune function are not well characterised and may include both positive and negative influences depending on the type, intensity, and duration of the exercise bout. High intensity interval training (HIIT) has become more popular due to it resulting in improvements to tradional and inflammatory markers of cardiovascular (CV) risk in clinical and non-clinical populations. Though these improvements are similar to those seen with moderate intensity exercise, HIIT requires a shorter overall time commitment, whilst improvements can also be seen even with a reduced exercise volume. The purpose of this study was to explore the physiolocial and immunological impact of 8-weeks of HIIT and moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) in kidney transplan recipients (KTRs). In addition, the natural variations of immune and inflammatory cells in KTRs and non-CKD controls over a longitudinal period are explored. Newly developed multi-colour flow cytometry methods were devised to identify and characterise immune cell populations. Twenty-six KTRs were randomised into one of two HIIT protocols or MICT: HIIT A (n=8; 4-, 2-, and 1-min intervals; 80-90% VO2peak), HIIT B (n=8, 4x4 min intervals; 80-90% VO2peak), or MICT (n=8, ~40 min; 50-60% VO2peak) for 24 supervised sessions on a stationary bike (approx. 3x/week over 8 ± 2 weeks). Blood samples taken pre-training, mid training, post-training and 3 months later. Novel multi-colour flow cytometric panels were developed to characterise lymphoid and myeloid cell population from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. No changes were observed for circulating immune and inflammatory cells over the 8-week interventions. The feasibility study does not suggest that exercise programmes using HIIT and MICT protocols elicit adverse negative effects on immunity in KTRs. Therefore, such protocols may be immunologically safe for these patients. The inability of the participants to achieve the target exercise intensities may be due to physiological abnormalities in this population which warrants further investigation.</p>","PeriodicalId":50468,"journal":{"name":"Exercise Immunology Review","volume":"28 ","pages":"100-115"},"PeriodicalIF":7.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10852003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In vitro studies have identified a direct effect of exercise-conditioned human serum on cancer cell lines of the lung, breast, prostate, and colon. The aim of this systematic review with meta-analysis (SRM) was to estimate the magnitude of the effect that exercise-conditioned human serum produced on the viability of cancer cell cultures. The design followed the PRISMA guidelines and the TREND statement to assess the quality of information (QoI) in each study. Nine in vitro studies were included in the SRM, involving a total of nine cancer cell lines and serum from 244 individuals from different countries, including namely healthy sedentary individuals, at risk of prostate cancer individuals and cancer patients, with ages ranging from 18 to 73 years. The impact of exerciseconditioned human serum on the viability of cancer cell cultures was analysed by a variety of assays, using pre-exercise human serum for comparison purposes. Globally, cultures of cancer cell lines exposed to human serum conditioned by exercise of various intensities exhibited a reduced viability, when compared with control cultures, with an overall effect size of -1.126 (95% CI; -1.300 to -0.952; p < 0.001). When the analysis only included human serum conditioned by high intensity exercise, the effect became more pronounced (ES -1.350; -1.522 to -1.179 (95% CI); p < 0.001).

The restoration of immune homeostasis is context-dependent, meaning either to increase anti-inflammatory signaling to counteract disease progression of non-communicable (auto)inflammatory diseases or to enhance (local) activity of proinflammatory immune cells to slow down or inhibit cancer progression. Regulatory CD4+ T cells (Tregs) represent the main regulatory component of the adaptive immune system that fine-tunes inflammatory responses, keeps them in check and prevents long-lasting autoimmunity. Because often dysregulated in the context of various diseases, emerging treatment approaches aim to modulate their number or inherent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive function in a highly disease-specific way. Exercise represents a non-pharmacologic strategy in disease prevention and rehabilitation and may be an effective treatment with few to no side effects to counteract dysregulation of Tregs. To date, several studies have evaluated the effect of exercise on Treg-related outcomes. This review aims at providing a comprehensive overview on alterations of blood- or tissue-derived Treg counts, proportion and functionality following acute and chronic exercise in humans and animal models. From the 60 reviewed studies, an overall disease-specific beneficial effect of chronic exercise on Treg levels in animal models can be stated, while both acute and chronic effects in human studies are less definite. However, Treg phenotyping is less sufficient in the animal studies compared to human studies. Only a limited number of studies investigated Treg functionality. There is a large heterogeneity concerning study design, human population or animal model, exercise protocol, and Treg outcome measure specification which makes it difficult to compare results and draw clear conclusions.

An acute inflammatory response can be induced by exercise; this is characterised by the acute increase in proinflammatory markers that subsequently stimulate the production of anti-inflammatory proteins. This may help explain the reduction in basal concentrations of pro-inflammatory markers following chronic exercise training. For sedentary populations, such as people with a disability, wheelchair users, or the elderly, the prevalence of chronic low-grade inflammation- related disease is further increased above that of individuals with a greater capacity to be physically active. Performing regular exercise with its proposed anti-inflammatory potential may not be feasible for these individuals due to a low physical capacity or other barriers to exercise. Therefore, alternatives to exercise that induce a transient acute inflammatory response may benefit their health. Manipulating body temperature may be such an alternative. Indeed, exercising in the heat results in a larger acute increase in inflammatory markers such as interleukin-6 and heat shock protein 72 when compared with exercising in thermoneutral conditions. Moreover, similar to exercise, passive elevation of body temperature can induce acute increases and chronic reductions in inflammatory markers and positively affect markers of glycaemic control.
