Effects of aerobic exercise on memory functions and serum levels of BDNF and TrkB in young adult and older adult male football players
Regular football training participation can maintain BDNF levels as a neurotrophin that can improve cognitive functions. Likewise, this neurotrophin and its receptor's response to aerobic exercise in old age suggests the effectiveness of exercise as a preventive strategy against age-related memory loss and neurodegeneration.
