The objectives of this study include gaining an in-depth understanding of the molecular pathways and the regulatory elements of the inflammatory response that are altered following long-term exercise in mice. C57/Bl6 mice were randomly assigned into a control group and an exercise group. Various modes of exercise training programs were performed by the exercise group.

Our data from qPCR and Western Blotting demonstrate that NF-B mediated genes have been downregulated following moderate exercise and up-regulated following high intensity exercise. In addition, IRF3 mediated genes are differentially regulated following both modes of exercise.
