| Summary |
Chemoattractive myokines are inflammatory molecules released from muscle that are important in muscle repair and recovery. Exercise increased these factors, enabling the infiltration of immune cells, while ageing blunted this response. This work provides new insights into the complex regulation of inflammatory responses that are important for growth and function |
