How increasing physical activity can boost neuroplasticity and reduce depression
have been demonstrated numerous times over the years. The mechanisms behind this effect, however, have remained mysterious. A new study published insheds some fresh light on this mystery. It showed that exercise increased neuroplasticity in depressed subjects.
medications are believed to help depression by enhancing neuroplasticity, and the new brain-stimulation treatments for depression, like repetitive transcranial stimulation , appear to do the same by directly stimulating the cortex with tiny electrical impulses.The study was carried out on 41 subjects who had been hospitalized for depression. After they had recovered enough from their symptoms to participate in the research, they were divided into two groups.
Before and after their programs, the subjects’ level of depression was assessed using the self-rated Beck Depression Inventory-II and the clinician-administered Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. In both groups, there was a direct correlation between the PASeffect and the degree of depression at baseline. Subjects with a higher depression score had a lower PASeffect, i.e., the brain showed lower neuroplasticity.
