Late‐life physical activity relates to brain tissue synaptic integrity markers in older adults
7 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Physical activity (PA) is widely recommended for age-related brain health, yet its neurobiology is not well understood. Animal models indicate PA is synaptogenic. We examined the relationship between PA and synaptic integrity markers in older adults. METHODS: Four hundred four decedents from the Rush Memory and Aging Project completed annual actigraphy monitoring (Mean visits = 3.5±2.4) and post...
