Training effects in mice after long-term voluntary exercise

Article Abstract:

Mice are an important animal model in exercise studies on the immune system, cancer and aging and there is limited research about the training effects of long-term voluntary exercise in this species. The voluntary running wheel activity for 16 wk in female C57BL/6 mice resulted in longer run times to exhaustion and the findings suggest that wheel running in female C57BL/6 mice produces a measurable aerobic training effect and secondly it is an effective exercise modality for long-term training exercise.

Occupational physical activity and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma

Article Abstract:

Occupational physical activity may not be linked to the risk of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Although occupational activity and sedentary professions have been associated with breast cancer and colorectal cancer, the same cannot be said for NHL. Immune suppression and other environmental factors are probably contributing to the development of NHL. Further research on the immune protection of recreational and sports activities rather than occupational activities is needed.
