Effect of aerobic exercise on hippocampal volume in humans: A systematic review and meta‐analysis (2018, positive): “Changes in hippocampal structure may be mediated by trophic factors, such as insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) (Ferris et al., 2007; Vaynman et al., 2004).”
Be smart, exercise your heart: exercise effects on brain and cognition (2008, background): “Even in humans, serum concentrations of BDNF are increased after acute exercise regimen”
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor: A Key Molecule for Memory in the Healthy and the Pathological Brain (2019, background): “Since these effects are accompanied by a concurrent increase in BDNF levels (Ding et al., 2006; Ferris et al., 2007), BDNF could be a potential mediator.”
The Effects of Acute Exercise on Mood, Cognition, Neurophysiology, and Neurochemical Pathways: A Review (2016, background): “Some reports show that the effect is intensity-dependent, with higher-intensity workouts producing larger increases in peripheral neurotrophin levels [137, 163].”
Positive effect of acute mild exercise on executive function via arousal-related prefrontal activations: An fNIRS study (2014, background): “Many studies have revealed facilitative effects of exercise on executive information processing (Ferris et al., 2007; Kamijo et al., 2004, 2007; Yanagisawa et al., 2010), and, uncommonly, that high-intensity but intermittent exercise has a beneficial impact on learning or attention in physically…”
Neuroplasticity — Exercise-Induced Response of Peripheral Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (2010, background): “[54,56,58,62-64,68,71] Acute aerobic exercise of low to moderate intensity is less effective to increase basal BDNF concentrations in healthy subjects (i.”
Embodied learning in the classroom: Effects on primary school children’s attention and foreign language vocabulary learning (2019, background): “, 2008), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (Ferris et al., 2007; Winter et al., 2007), glucocorticoids (Blair et al.”
Exercise is the real polypill. (2013, background): “Circulating BDNF increases with aerobic exercise (121, 147, 409, 437, 465, 510), especially with high-intensity exercise (121, 431, 510), and rapidly decreases to basal levels shortly after exertion (431), suggesting its clearance is mediated by target-tissue uptake (284).”
A primer on investigating the after effects of acute bouts of physical activity on cognition (2019, background): “(2014) observed any association between physical activity-induced changes in BDNF concentration and performance on an inhibitory control task (Ferris et al., 2007) or a visuospatial attention task (Tsai et al.”
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor is produced by skeletal muscle cells in response to contraction and enhances fat oxidation via activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (2009, background): “Recent studies have demonstrated that physical exercise can increase circulating BDNF levels in both healthy humans [19, 20] and patients with multiple sclerosis [21], although the cellular origin of this increase is unclear.”
