Article Synopsis
- Physical activity leads to significant adaptations in both mental and physical health, particularly through the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) during exercise, which may play a role in systemic signaling.
- Researchers conducted a study on healthy male athletes who underwent an incremental cycling test, discovering various characteristics and subtypes of these exercise-associated extracellular vesicles (ExerVs) in their blood.
- Through various purification and analysis techniques, they found that ExerVs increased in number during exercise, with specific cell types like lymphocytes, monocytes, and endothelial cells identified as contributors to this process.
