Purpose Due to distinct immuno- and neuro-modulatory properties, growing research interest focuses on exercise-induced alterations of the kynurenine (KYN) pathway in healthy and clinical populations.

Therefore, we investigated the acute effects of hypertrophic (HYP) compared to maximal (MAX) strength loadings on th...
