Tanya,

I was wondering if you might have access to this article, and if so, whether you could read it and discuss it with your counterparts and then give us your general impression of it and what it says:

Exercise, Inflammation, and Innate Immunity
Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, Volume 29, Issue 2, Pages 381-393
J. Woods, V. Vieira, K. Keylock

Abstract
Exercise has beneficial effects on chronic disease, and the drive to understand the mechanisms of these benefits is strong. This article presents several compelling potential mechanisms for the anti-inflammatory effect of exercise, including reduced percentage of body fat and macrophage accumulation in adipose tissue, muscle-released interleukin-6 inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-a, and the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway.
