Reviewer 3 Report

In the above-mentioned review article, the Authors aimed to summarize recent data in the field of exercise immunology, investigating the acute and chronic effects of exercise on myokines release and immune system function. The article is written clearly and only some minor corrections are suggested:

  • English editing for some minor corrections (i.e. typographical errors) is recommended.
  • Several abbreviations in the text should be explained, as well as the abbreviations below Figure 1.
  • Page 2 and Table 1-the units for BMI are missing (i.e. kg/m2).
