Long-term endurance exercise decreases antiangiogenic endostatin signalling in overweight men aged 50–60 years

The first 100% of the full text of this article appears below.

Cardiovascular diseases are becoming more common, owing to the increasing number of patients with high body mass index (BMI). In addition these patients are often even <50 years old! This study gives information on the beneficial effect of training. On a long-term run, this not only reduces BMI but also may reduce the risk of cardiovascular death, probably due to beneficial effects on angiogenesis.
