- The strength model of self-control revisited: Linking acute and chronic effects of exercise on executive functions (2015, background): “, angiogenesis, neurogenesis, and synaptogenesis), and improving brain integrity and efficiency of neural networks involved in executive functions.(20) However, a series of alternative more psychological hypotheses can also explain, at least in part, the positive effects of chronic exercise on self-”
- A meta-analytic review of the effects of exercise on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (2014, background): “Also, exercise-induced BDNF activity can reduce the threshold for successful encoding and memory (Intlekofer et al., 2013) and has been hypothesized to place the brain in a state of readiness for plasticity (Cotman et al., 2007).”
- Exercise promotes the expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) through the action of the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate (2016, background): “In animal models, exercise induces Bdnf mRNA expression in multiple brain regions (Cotman et al., 2007), most prominently in the hippocampus.”
- Physical activity and risk of neurodegenerative disease: a systematic review of prospective evidence (2008, background): “An emerging theory is that exercise enhances several growth factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor and insulin-like growth factor, which mediate the protective and therapeutic effects of exercise on brain function (Cotman et al. 2007).”
- Hippocampal plasticity in response to exercise in schizophrenia. (2010, background): “Exercise results in increased levels of neurotrophic factors in rodent hippocampus.(30) A similar mechanism occurring in humans might help to ameliorate a relatively atrophic hippocampus in schizophrenia.”
- Relationships of peripheral IGF-1, VEGF and BDNF levels to exercise-related changes in memory, hippocampal perfusion and volumes in older adults (2016, background): “Enhanced IGF-I is also thought to mediate the induction of hippocampal BDNF, and together they are considered as the key factors in the effects of exercise on learning and memory (Cotman et al., 2007).”
- Acute moderate exercise elicits increased dorsolateral prefrontal activation and improves cognitive performance with Stroop test (2010, background): “Accordingly, exercise is drawing increasing research attention as a possible lifestyle factor for improving neurocognitive functions, and preventing or delaying dementia (Cotman et al., 2007; Hillman et al., 2008).”
