Astrocyte remodeling in the beneficial effects of long-term voluntary exercise in Alzheimer’s disease

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2020
Background Increased physical exercise improves cognitive function and reduces pathology associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of exercise in AD on the level of specific brain cell types ...

Genetic determinants of voluntary exercise

Trends in Genetics, 2013
Variation in voluntary exercise behavior is an important determinant of long-term human health. Increased physical activity is used as a preventative measure or therapeutic intervention for disease, and a sedentary lifestyle has generally been viewed as unhealthy.

Voluntary Exercise Can Ameliorate Insulin Resistance by Reducing iNOS-Mediated S-Nitrosylation of Akt in the Liver in Obese Rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Voluntary exercise can ameliorate insulin resistance. The underlying mechanism, however, remains to be elucidated. We previously demonstrated that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the liver plays an important role in hepatic insulin resistance ...

Early life stress reduces voluntary exercise and its prevention of diet-induced obesity and metabolic dysfunction in mice.

Physiology and Behavior, 2020
The development of obesity-related metabolic syndrome (MetS) involves a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors. One environmental factor found to be significantly associated with MetS is early life stress (ELS).

SEX STEROID HORMONES AND VOLUNTARY EXERCISE IN RATS [PDF]

Reproduction, 1962
Oestrogen pellets implanted in castrated or spayed rats cause both the males and females to take a considerable amount of voluntary exercise. Testosterone pellets cause implanted spayed females to take considerable exercise but their effect on the castrated male is much less.

The Effect of Voluntary Exercise on Gut Microbiota in Partially Hydrolyzed Guar Gum Intake Mice under High-Fat Diet Feeding

Nutrients, 2020
Although dietary fiber treatment alters the gut microbiota and its metabolite production, it is unclear whether or not exercise habits can have a supplemental effect on changes in gut microbiota in dietary fiber-treated mice.
