Depression poses a significant societal burden, necessitating effective treatment options. Conventional approaches often fall short, highlighting the need for alternatives. Exercise has emerged as promising nonpharmacological strategy improving mental health outcomes. promotes memory recall and alleviates depression by modulating BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) expression. The effects of exercise on are influenced circulatory metabolites known factors. Associative spatial were...
Exercise promotes learning and memory recall as well rescues cognitive decline associated with aging. The positive effects of exercise are mediated by circulatory factors that predominantly increase Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) signaling in the hippocampus. Identifying pathways regulate release various tissues during mediate hippocampal Mus musculus Bdnf expression will allow us to harness therapeutic potential exercise. Here, we report two weeks voluntary male mice activates...
