Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and the hemiplegic upper extremity is particularly resistant to rehabilitation intervention. Endurance exercise, outside of its beneficial effects on the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems, influences brain remodelling, learning, and memory. In our experiments, we determined the effects of exercise on critical mediators of neuroplasticity (brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I), synapsin-I, phosphorylated cyclic AMP response element binding protein (pCREB) and serum corticosterone) in a rat model of...
