Chronic inflammatory disease plays a role in muscle loss and weakness in many different diseases, including heart disease and stroke, cancer, diabetes and obesity. Biomedical engineers at Duke University have shown that human muscle has an innate ability to ward off the damaging effects of chronic inflammation when exercised.
