Abstract excerpt
AIM: Endurance exercise (EE) has been reported to confer neuroprotection against Parkinson's disease (PD); however, underlying molecular mechanisms of the protection remain still unclear. Since mitochondrial impairment is commonly observed in the brain of PD patients and animals, this study investigated whether EE-induced neuroprotection is associated with mitochondrial phenotypes, using a mouse model of PD...
