Effect of the physical activity on the markers of intestinal permeability and inflammation in the serum of participants. (A) Bacterial endotoxin, (B) i-FABP, (C) CD14 protein, and (D) IL-6 protein levels before (T0) and after (T2) the physical activity in the serum of participants. Values are means ± SEM; n = 17 except for (D), n = 3–7; *, p < 0.05. i-FABP = intestinal fatty acid-binding protein; CD14 = cluster of differentiation 14; IL-6 = interleukin 6. Results show that a moderate running intensity significantly increases serum markers for the functionality of the intestinal barrier.
