Abstract

The article presents research which assessed the effect of adipose tissue interleukin-18 messenger ribonucleic acid (AT IL-18 mRNA) and plasma interleukin-18 on obesity and exercise. Researchers argued that the training-induced lowering of AT IL-18 mRNA content may contribute to the beneficial effects of regular physical activity with improved insulin sensitivity.
