Nardi & Sérgio Machado (2016): Exercise-induced neuroprotective effects on neurodegenerative diseases: the key role of trophic factors, Expert Review of Neurotherapeutics, DOI: 10.1080/14737175.2016.11795821473-7175http://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/18690Age-related neurodegenerative disorders, like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease, are becoming a major issue to public health care. Currently, there is no effective pharmacological treatment to address cognitive impairment in these patients. Here, we aim to explore the role of exercise-induced trophic factor enhancement in the prevention or delay of cognitive decline in patients with neurodegenerative diseases.engExerciseNeuroprotectiveNeurodegenerative diseaseAlzheimer’s diseaseParkinson’s diseaseNeurotrophinsBDNFIGF-INGFGDNFjournal article10.1080/14737175.2016.1179582
