Exercise-Induced Skeletal Muscle Secretory Factors and Macrophage Functional Remodeling: Mechanistic Advances.
Regular exercise mediates inter-tissue communication between skeletal muscle and the immune system through skeletal muscle-derived secretory factors, providing an important molecular basis for the beneficial effects of exercise on chronic inflammation, metabolic dysregulation, and impaired tissue repair. As key effector cells of the innate immune system, macrophages do not simply conform to a dichotomous classification of classically activated M1 macrophages …
