Immunological benefits of only 10 minute exercise in breast cancer patients according to our recent study: "Total leukocyte count increased by 29%, CD8+ T cell count by 34%, CD19+ B cell count by 18%, CD56+CD16+ NK cell count by 130%" nature.com/articles/s4159…
Our first exercise oncology/immunology study: Acute exercise mobilizes CD8+ cytotoxic T cells and NK cells in lymphoma patients Grateful for the research group and support @SuomenAkatemia @TurkuPETCentre @UniTurku @TyksAUCS frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
Glad to have been part of amazing Lisa Heather's research team studying diabetic heart leading to this publication. FoxO1-zDHHC4-CD36 S-Acylation Axis Drives Metabolic Dysfunction in Diabetes | Circulation Research ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…
Our latest results suggest that while reduced sitting did not improve liver insulin sensitivity, a combination of reduced weight and increased physical activity did so. Interestingly liver fat did not improve, so liver health is not all about liver fat. journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.11…
We always want to have the toughest opponent we can imagine for the PhD defense. Today we did not need to ask from abroad as Satu Mustjoki came from Helsinki to challenge Tiia Koivula, who showed that she knows her topic which was immunological responses of exercise in cancer.
Tried to go beyond traditional approaches, by discussing the possible physiological limiting factors of the limiting factor(s) of (endurance) exercise performance. physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/EP…
This is how Finland used to be before Russia took over many of the eastern parts.

Result lists tell it all which country knows how to train for cross-country skiing.
No other bikes, yet, this morning 😅
I was wondering in the morning that where are all other cyclists, but there were many commuters riding their bikes when coming back from work. Still not so much snow that road bike was just fine.

Two papers. On the left, a non-randomized, non-crossover study showing that a one-off sauna exposure significantly decreased arterial stiffness, with implications on cardiovascular health. On the right, a randomized, crossover (more robust) study, showing no benefits on…
Last moments (hopefully) to enjoy forest trails in the highest region of South-West Finland before the snow season.
How does it go, is sitting really always bad for your blood pressure, especially during night time? Associations between Leisure and Work Time Activity... : Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise journals.lww.com/acsm-msse/abst…

. 23 authors have published more than one article every day in 2024. We have just clicked over to 01 Nov 2024. That is, we have done 10 months of this year, which is 305 days. At various points during the year, we have looked at who has published a lot of papers, or "hyper…

Should train left leg too 😅
Training started early x.com/visualfeastwan…
Reviewers and other decision makers almost every time whenever I have submitted my grant applications.
Evelyne de Leeuw: "It was very hard to work in Australia where you are part of rasist, colonial system". Colonialism and European slave trade was also touched upon in a symposium of physical activity in latine America which still contributes there to equality issues.
