From: Moderate physical exercise improves lymphocyte function in melanoma-bearing mice on a high-fat diet
Evaluation of physical performance in mice maintained on either a high-fat or normolipidic diet and subjected to moderate physical exercise or allowed to remain sedentary. C57BL6 mice were maintained on a diet containing either 60% or 10% of energy from lipids and were either trained on a treadmill at moderate intensity for 8 weeks or were allowed to remain sedentary. Sedentary and exercised mice were subjected to the incremental load test on the treadmill during the first (week 0), fourth, and eighth weeks of the study. Subsequently, B16F10 tumor cells were injected, and physical performance was measured as described in the Methods. Data are presented as mean ± standard error of the mean. *P < 0.05 vs sedentary group. #P < 0.05 vs week 0. N group, n = 8; H group, n = 9; NE group, n = 8 and HE group, n = 9. Normolipidic control (N); High-fat control (H); Normolipidic control + physical exercise (NE); High-fat control + physical exercise (HE)
