The aim of the present study was to examine whether IL-6 and TNF-{alpha} are expressed in, and released from human skeletal muscle during exercise. We hypothesised that the skeletal muscle will release IL-6, but not TNF-{alpha}, during exercise because of the previous observations that TNF-{alpha} negatively affects glucose uptake in skeletal muscle. Six healthy, male subjects performed 180 min of two-legged knee-extensor exercise. Muscle samples were obtained from the vastus lateralis of one limb. In addition, blood samples were obtained from a femoral artery and vein. Plasma was analysed for IL-6 and TNF-{alpha}. We detected both IL-6 and TNF-{alpha} mRNA in resting muscle samples and while IL-6 increased (P<0.05) ~100 fold throughout exercise, no significant increase in TNF-a mRNA was observed. Arterial plasma TNF-{alpha} did not increase during exercise. Furthermore, there was no net release of TNF-{alpha} either before or during exercise. In contrast, IL-6 increased throughout exercise in arterial plasma and a net IL-6 release from the contracting limb was observed after 120 min of exercise (P<0.05).
