Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how marathon running affects the balance of hormones and immune responses in athletes compared to sedentary individuals.
- The research involved 20 male marathon runners and 20 sedentary males, analyzing their serum levels of hormones and cytokines at different points: at rest, right after a marathon, and 72 hours post-race.
- Findings indicated that marathon runners had higher levels of growth hormone and certain cytokines, suggesting they have adaptations that prepare their bodies for intense physical activity, although some levels normalized after recovery.
