Effect of oral glutamine supplementation on human neutrophil lipopolysaccharide-stimulated degranulation following prolonged exercise
Article Abstract:
Prolonged, high-intensity exercise can temporarily suppress human immune function. This study focuses on how the supplementation of glutamine, an amino acid used as fuel in the body, plays a minimal role in the functioning of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell that plays an active role in nonspecific host defense.

Effect of prolonged exercise and carbohydrate on total neutrophil elastase content
Article Abstract:
Research reveals that the total elastase content of neutrophils is not affected by exercise or carbohydrate-beverage intake. Data support that reduction in lipopolysacchardie-stimulated neutrophil elastase release following prolonged intense exercise cannot be attributed to changes in neutrophil elastase content.
