IL-6 is a type of cytokine that changes very significantly in the process of exercising; its changing magnitude is closely related to exercise time and exercise in-tensity. Via their study the authors revealed the following findings: IL-6 produced during exercising originates pri-marily from contracting skeletal muscle; free radicals produced by skeletal muscle in the process of exercising, es-pecially active oxygen, are a major cause for inducing the production of IL-6 during exercising.
