| Abstract | ||
| Present work included the study of cellular and humoral immune response in athletes before and after running on treadmill. Results of cellular immune response related with differential white blood cell count indicated an increasing in mean number of neutrophils after exercise in comparison with their number before exercise but it is not significant, whearas the eosinophils and basophils did not show any significant differences in their numbers between the two intervals of study (before and after exercise). Also there is a significant elevation in numbers of monocytes after an exercise in comparison with athletes before an exercise and control group. The study also indicated that there is non significant increasing in lymphocytes after an exercise when compared with their number before an exercise. Moreover results of total white blood cell count indicated that there is an increasing in their numbers in athletes after an exercise. Other indicator of cellular immune response is the presence of an elevation in phagocytic activity of PMNs after an exercise in comparison with their activity before an exercise. In relation with results of humoral immune response, present results demonstrated the significant increasing in IgM and IgA in athletes after an exercise while IgG donot revealed any significant differences in their level among the studied groups. | ||
