Regular physical activity can enhance immune function and effectively prevents the spread of the cytokine response, thus reducing systemic low-grade inflammation and improving various immune markers. Moreover, regular exercise maintains redox homeostasis in skeletal muscle and other tissues, including immune cells, but the interconnection between the anti-inflammatory effects of exercise with the redox status of immune cells is still poorly understood. With the aim to verify the overall beneficial effect of regular training on the immune system, we have examined the acute and short-term effect of a 5-day exercise program on the modulation of protein and lipid oxidation, antioxidants (i.e., superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) and superoxide dismutase-2 (SOD2), glutathione peroxide 1 (GPx1), thioredoxin reductase-1 (TrxR1), and catalase (CAT)), and heat shock protein expression (i.e., heat shock protein-70 (HSP70) and heat shock protein-27 (HSP27)), at both mRNA and protein levels, as well as the activation of the nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NFB) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Moreover, plasmatic markers of oxidative stress, inflammation, and stress response (i.e., protein carbonyl content, interleukin-6 (IL6), interleukin-8 (IL8), interleukin-10 (IL10), interleukin-17E (IL17E), interleukin-17F (IL17F), interleukin-21 (IL21), interleukin-22 (IL22), and interleukin-23 (IL23)) were analyzed in active untrained young adult subjects. Even in the absence of an increased amount of protein or lipid oxidation, we confirmed a PBMC upregulation of SOD1 (1.26 ± 0.07 fold change, < 0.05), HSP70 (1.59 ± 0.28 fold change, < 0.05), and HSP27 gene expression (1.49 ± 0.09 fold change, < 0.05) after 3 hours from the first bout of exercise, followed by an increase in proteins' amount at 24 hours (SOD1, 1.80 ± 0.34 fold change; HSP70, 3.40 ± 0.58 fold change; and HSP27, 1.81 ± 0.20 fold change, < 0.05) and return to basal levels after the 5 days of aerobic training. Indeed, the posttraining basal levels of oxidized molecules in plasma and PBMCs were statistically lower than the pretraining levels (carbonyl content, 0.50 ± 0.05 fold change, < 0.01), paralleled by a lower expression of SOD2, Gpx1, and TrxR1, at mRNA (SOD2, 0.63 ± 0.06; GPx1, 0.69 ± 0.07; and TrxR1, 0.69 ± 0.12 fold change, < 0.05) and protein (TrxR1, 0.49 ± 0.11 fold change, < 0.05) levels. These results verified the existence of an early phase of redox adaptation to physical exercise already achievable after 5 days of moderate, regular aerobic training. More interestingly, this phenomenon was paralleled by the degree of NFB activation in PBMCs and the decrease of plasmatic proinflammatory cytokines IL8, IL21, and IL22 in the posttraining period, suggesting an interconnected, short-term efficacy of aerobic exercise towards systemic oxidative stress and inflammation.
定期进行体育锻炼可以增强免疫功能,有效阻止细胞因子反应的传播,从而降低全身低度炎症并改善各种免疫标志物。此外,定期运动可维持骨骼肌和其他组织(包括免疫细胞)中的氧化还原平衡,但运动的抗炎作用与免疫细胞的氧化还原状态之间的相互联系仍知之甚少。为了验证定期训练对免疫系统的整体有益效果,我们研究了为期 5 天的运动方案对蛋白质和脂质氧化、抗氧化剂(即超氧化物歧化酶-1(SOD1)和超氧化物歧化酶-2(SOD2)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 1(GPx1)、硫氧还蛋白还原酶-1(TrxR1)和过氧化氢酶(CAT))以及热休克蛋白表达(即热休克蛋白-70(HSP70)和热休克蛋白-27(HSP27))的调节作用,在 mRNA 和蛋白质水平上,以及外周血单核细胞(PBMCs)中核因子 kappa 轻链增强子活化 B 细胞(NFB)的激活作用。此外,还分析了血浆氧化应激、炎症和应激反应的标志物(即蛋白质羰基含量、白细胞介素-6(IL6)、白细胞介素-8(IL8)、白细胞介素-10(IL10)、白细胞介素-17E(IL17E)、白细胞介素-17F(IL17F)、白细胞介素-21(IL21)、白细胞介素-22(IL22)和白细胞介素-23(IL23))在活跃的未经训练的年轻成年受试者中的表达情况。即使在没有增加蛋白质或脂质氧化的情况下,我们也在运动后 3 小时确认了 PBMC 中 SOD1(1.26 ± 0.07 倍变化, < 0.05)、HSP70(1.59 ± 0.28 倍变化, < 0.05)和 HSP27 基因表达(1.49 ± 0.09 倍变化, < 0.05)的上调,随后在 24 小时时蛋白质的数量增加(SOD1,1.80 ± 0.34 倍变化;HSP70,3.40 ± 0.58 倍变化;和 HSP27,1.81 ± 0.20 倍变化, < 0.05),并在有氧训练 5 天后恢复到基础水平。实际上,运动后训练期间血浆和 PBMC 中氧化分子的基础水平比训练前水平统计学上降低(羰基含量,0.50 ± 0.05 倍变化, < 0.01),同时 SOD2、Gpx1 和 TrxR1 的表达水平降低,在 mRNA 水平(SOD2,0.63 ± 0.06;GPx1,0.69 ± 0.07;和 TrxR1,0.69 ± 0.12 倍变化, < 0.05)和蛋白质水平(TrxR1,0.49 ± 0.11 倍变化, < 0.05)。这些结果证实了即使在进行 5 天适度、有规律的有氧运动后,也存在氧化还原适应的早期阶段。更有趣的是,这种现象与 PBMC 中 NFB 的激活程度以及训练后血浆前炎性细胞因子 IL8、IL21 和 IL22 的减少平行,这表明有氧运动对全身氧化应激和炎症具有短期的相互关联的疗效。
