Article Synopsis
- Research from the 1950s to 1978 suggested that exercise could help reduce tumor growth, particularly in tumor-bearing rats that were exercised until fatigue.
- An extract called F-Substance was isolated from fatigued muscle tissues, which showed significant inhibition of tumor growth in experiments.
- Recent advancements in technology allowed for the identification of specific cytokines, like LIX, TIMP-1, and sICAM, that appear to have a strong correlation with the antitumor effects observed in the extracts from electrically stimulated muscles compared to unstimulated ones.
