In this study, Polish researchers evaluated changes in the gene expression associated with the cellular stress response in peripheral mononuclear blood cells (PMBC) in healthy women after qigong training. The results of their study were published in the journal Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine.
Based on these findings, the researchers concluded that qigong can reduce inflammatory gene expression, intensify anti-inflammatory gene expression, and increase HSF-1 and HSPA1A expression.
