Physical activity (PA) has been central in the life of our species for most of its history, and
thus shaped our physiology during evolution. However, only recently the health …

The hippocampus is critical for learning and memory, relying in part on pattern separation
processes supported by the dentate gyrus (DG) to prevent interference from overlapping …

Pattern separation, the ability to independently represent and store similar experiences, is a
crucial facet of episodic memory. Growing evidence suggests that the hippocampus …

Physical exercise has beneficial effects on neurocognitive function, including hippocampus-
dependent episodic memory. Exercise intensity level can be assessed according to whether …

Brain glycogen stored in astrocytes provides lactate as an energy source to neurons through
monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) to maintain neuronal functions such as hippocampus …

Background: Accumulating research demonstrates that the timing of exercise plays an
important role in influencing episodic memory. However, we have a limited understanding …

Exercise is a simple intervention that profoundly benefits cognition. In rodents, running
increases neurogenesis in the hippocampus, a brain area important for memory. We …

Purpose: Previous studies report memory and functional connectivity of memory systems
improve acutely after a single aerobic exercise session or with training, suggesting the acute …

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with heightened emotional responding,
avoidance of trauma related stimuli, and physical health concerns (eg, metabolic syndrome …

The proportion of elderly populations is rapidly booming, and human lifespan has
considerably increased in the past century because of scientific and medical advances …
