The evolution of BDNF is defined by strict purifying selection and prodomain spatial coevolution, but what does it mean for human brain disease?Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is an essential mediator of brain assembly, development, and maturation. BDNF has been implicated in a variety ...
This suggests that NPY does, in fact, drive the increased weight gain associated with stress eating. Eating while stressed could mean extra weight gain In turn, these desensitised nerve cells boosted their NPY levels, which both promoted eating and reduced the bodies' normal response to burn ene...
What does this mean for you? An improved ability to think and reason, better concentration, enhanced memory, and a better mood! Preclinical studies have shown that curcumin crosses the blood-brain barrier where it works with the brain and exerts many brain-boosting benefits, including the release...
Does tendon neuroanatomy correlate to tendon pain? The nerve supply of intact healthy tendons is localized in the tendon sheath, whereas the tendon proper, i.e., intrafascicular matrix, is devoid of innervation (Figures 2, 3) [24]. This anatomical finding implicates that the tendon sheath is...
Most of us have heard the term "runner's high", but what exactly does this mean? Exercise creates chemical responses in the brain, which leads to both temporary and long-term mental health benefits. Here is how it works:What happens when we are stressed?Cortisol: This stress hormone (...
While giving up soda is good for your body in a myriad of ways, that doesn't mean that doing so is easy or without effort — it actually can be quite difficult, according toHealth. Additionally, some of the impacts of ditching your dew can be fairly unpleasant out of the gate, especia...

There is a minor caveat, however. The researchers also discovered that exercise does not affect the brains of all people in exactly the same way. Some people, about 30 percent of people of European Caucasian descent, have a BDNF gene variant that hinders post-exercise BDNF production. The peo...
