The Effect of Prolonged Aerobic Exercise on Salivary Secretion of Immunoglobulin a And serum Cortisol Ievel in Young Male Adult in Okada, Nigeria.

Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN BIOLOGY - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

This study was aim at determining the effect of prolonged aerobic exercise on salivary secretion of IgA and serum cortisol in young male adult in Okada, Nigeria. Two hundred and four male volunteers (age 20 + 2 years, body mass index 22 + 1.5 kg/m2) participated in the study. Salivary IgA and serum cortisol level was determined by enzyme linked immuno sorbent assay technique. Blood glucose was determined by glucose oxidase method. We observed that an endurance race using a treadmill ergometer significantly decrease blood glucose concentration and increased serum cortisol (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant effect on salivary secretion of IgA (P > 0.05). These findings suggested that a single bout of exhaustive aerobic exercise do not appear to acutely affect the mucosal immunity, even with the elevation of serum cortisol.
