Abstract : Asthma is a significant global problem, estimated to affect over 300 million people worldwide. Obesity has adverse consequences on immune system, causing immunosuppression and thus, obese individuals have higher incidence of infections and certain types of cancer. The aim of this study was to compare changes in leptin and selected innate immune system response after mild and moderate intensity aerobic exercise training in obese asthmatic patients. Forty obese asthmatic male subjects, their age ranged between 25 to 43 years old. The subjects were included into 2 equal groups; group received moderate intensity aerobic exercise training. The second group (B) received mild intensity aerobic exercise training for 3 months. Plasma leptin level and the level of serum protein of the complement system were measured. The mean values of C3, C4, BMI and Leptin were significantly decreased in group (A) and group (B).Also; there was a significant difference between both groups after treatment. The results indicated that moderate intensity aerobic exercise training on treadmill is appropriate to improve innate immune system response asthmatic obese male patients.
