title: Exercise regulates heat shock proteins and nitric oxide.
abstract: Heat shock proteins (HSP) produced during exercise have important roles in modulating the effects of oxidative stresses to preserve cellular function. The ability of HSP to regulate nitric oxide, which has both protective and detrimental effects on the airways and circulation, may have implications for exercise-induced asthma. Exercise regulates HSP and nitric oxide interactions and protects against organ dysfunction and oxidative stresses.
