Effect of sepsis and running exercise on concentrations of interleukin 6 (IL6) (a) and KC (b) in lung lavage of aged mice: n = 6, 5, 6, and 6 for bars, left to right, respectively (a and b). Sepsis (7 h post fecal injection into the peritoneum) increased lung IL6 and KC in both exercised and non-exercised mice. Running exercise reduced these increases. *Effect of sepsis versus control, #effect of running exercise versus non-exercise; P < 0.05
