Abstract
Chronic and exhaustive exercise leads to a decline in mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation in-vitro and in-vivo. This is suggestive of decrease in cellular and humoral immunity. Majority of workers are of opinion that exercise-induced immunosuppression is related to the production of glucocorticoids in response to the stress associated with exercise.
