Introduction: Moderate aerobic exercise training accelerates the resolution of lung fibrosis in a model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. However, whether it can inhibit the development of lung fibrosis is unknown. Materials and methods: C57Bl/6 mice were distributed into four groups: Control (Co), Exercise (Exe), Bleomycin (Bleo), and Bl...

Air pollution is a growing problem worldwide, inducing and exacerbating several diseases. Among the several components of air pollutants, particulate matter (PM), especially thick (10–2.5 µm; PM 10) and thin (≤2.5 µm; PM 2.5), are breathable particles that easily can be deposited within the lungs, resulting in pulmonary and systemic inflammation. A...

Asthma is a chronic allergic airway inflammatory disease. Purinergic signaling, especially through the accumulation of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) activating P2X7 receptor (P2X7r) has a key role in asthma. Aerobic physical training (APT) improves allergic airway inflammation, but the role of purinergic signaling in its effects are un...
