Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) have a different site of interaction and modulate vascular tone and inflammatory response as well on exercise adaptation, which is modulated by exercise-induced cytokines. The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of ACE I/D and BDKRB2 +9/-9 polymorphism on exercise-induced cytokine response. Seventy-four male marathon finishers, aged 30 to 55 years, participated in this study.

- Endurance exercise like marathon running boosts specific peptides and cytokines that help repair and regenerate skeletal muscle after damage.
- The study analyzed blood samples from 57 male marathon runners at various times—before, immediately after, and up to 72 hours post-race—to track muscle damage and cytokine levels.
- Key findings showed significant increases in multiple cytokines like IL-6 and IL-10 after the marathon, along with a decrease in certain muscle-related proteins, suggesting that the body undergoes a complex repair process involving these inflammatory signals.
Article Synopsis
- The study explored the impact of whey protein (WP) and casein (CAS) combined in an 80:20 ratio on muscle recovery and blood amino acid levels after resistance exercise.
- Participants consumed various protein supplements, including different combinations of WP and CAS, and were assessed for factors like muscle soreness, nitrogen balance, and BCAA profiles.
- Results showed that while the combined protein did not enhance BCAA profiles compared to WP alone, it significantly reduced muscle soreness (DOMS) compared to casein and placebo treatments.
