Abstract

Background: Many studies have reported that individuals with Down syndrome (DS) have been prone to develop infectious, malignant and abnormality of the immune function. Objective: This study was designed to measure response of selected innate immune system to aerobic exercise training among obese DS children. Materials and Methods: Forty DS obese male and female children participated in this study, the range of their age 12 to 16 years and were enrolled in 2 equal study groups; the first group practiced aerobic exercise training for 3 months, whereas the second group received no intervention. Results: The measured parameters of the first group who received aerobic exercise training revealed that mean values of C3, C4 and BMI has been reduced significantly, in the other hand, the changes in the parameters of the second group who received no intervention showed non-significant changes. In addition, the differences between both groups at the end of the study were significant. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise training improves innate immune system response in DS obese children.
