IL-6 production during exercise is influenced by exercise intensity and duration and low volume of muscle glycogen stimulates its production. The purpose of this study is to determine the acute and delayed effect of 60 minutes running and CHO intake on IL-6 Serum. Nineteen male subjects with the average age of 24.89 ±2.37, BMI 72.25±6.97 kg, height 176.1 ± 4.60 cm, fat percentage, 5.80 ± 1.18 kg and Vo2max 56.40 ± 1.74 kg per liter/minute were placed in two CHO or PLA groups. Each of the subjects ran on the treadmill for 60 min with 80% MHR. 10 minutes before the exercise, immediately after the exercise and 24 hours after the exercise blood samples of were collected from the subjects. The subjects drank either of PLA or CHO drinks during exercise. Samples were analyzed by ELISA method. Data analysis was done in the form of descriptive and inferential statistical methods. To decide on affirmation or rejection of hypotheses, the significance level of 0.05 was considered. IL-6 Serum in both groups significantly increased under the influence of exercise and this increase was more sizable in PLA group CHO group and the difference was significant. 24 hours after exercise, IL- 6 serum concentrations in the two groups were different but the difference was not significant. The results of this study show that in exercises affecting IL-6 serum concentration, glucose-containing supplements can prevent the increase of the concentration of this cytokine.
