Depression is a common mental disorder in which patients often experience feelings of sadness, fatigue, loss interest, and pleasure. Exercise widely used intervention for managing depression, but the specific molecular mechanisms underlying its antidepressant effect are unclear. In this narrative review, we aim to synthesize current knowledge on molecular, neural, physiological through exercise exerts discuss various interventions depression. We conducted review literature topic Our suggests that impacts peripheral tryptophan metabolism, central inflammation, brain-derived neurotrophic factors peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ activating factor 1α (PGC-1α) skeletal muscles. The uncarboxylated osteocalcin facilitates "bone-brain crosstalk", corrects atypical expression brain-gut peptides, modulates cytokine production neurotransmitter release, regulates inflammatory pathways microRNA expression. Aerobic recommended at frequencies 3 5 times per week with medium high intensity. Here highlight significant potential therapy supported by effect.

Background Sleep quality has become a frequent and prominent public health problem in Chinese universities, which seriously hinders the healthy development of college students improvement higher education. Objective The purpose this study is to explore relationship between physical activity sleep among students, mechanism psychological resilience social adaptation, provide suggestions for improving students. Methods From August September 2022, cross-sectional survey was conducted by using convenience sampling method Guangdong Province. 1,622 were investigated with Physical Activity Scale , Pittsburgh Quality Index (PSQI), Psychological Resilience Social Adaptation Diagnostic 893 male 729 female. Use SPSS 23.0 PROCESS plug-ins analyze data. Results (1) There significant negative correlation ( r = −0.237), direct path (β −0.236, t −9.888, p &lt; 0.01); (2) can positively predict 0.215, 8.823, 0.01) adaptation 0.164, 7.773, negatively −0.337, −15.711, 0.01), positive prediction 0.504, 23.961, −0.405, −18.558, (3) play mediating role quality. mediation effect consists three paths: → (mediation value −0.0723), −0.0662), −0.0438). (4) no gender difference chain mediated effect. Conclusion significantly students’ quality, means that may help improve reduce problems; not only directly affect sleep, but also indirectly through independent intermediary both. This further explains reason why plays will some inspiration colleges universities problems formulate intervention plans.

This review aimed to elucidate the mechanisms through which (i) physical activity (PA) enhances neuroplasticity and cognitive function in neurodegenerative disorders, (ii) identify specific PA interventions for improving rehabilitation programs. We conducted a literature search PubMed, Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, PsycINFO, covering publications from January 1990 August 2024. The strategy employed key terms related neuroplasticity, exercise, function, personalized activity. Inclusion criteria included original research on relationship between while exclusion eliminated studies focusing solely pharmacological interventions. identified multiple pathways may enhance including releasing neurotrophic factors, modulation neuroinflammation, reduction oxidative stress, enhancement synaptic connectivity neurogenesis. Aerobic exercise was found increase hippocampal volume by 1–2% improve executive scores 5–10% older adults. Resistance training enhanced control memory performance 12–18% elderly individuals. Mind–body exercises, such as yoga tai-chi, improved gray matter density memory-related brain regions 3–5% emotional regulation 15–20%. Dual-task attention processing speed 8–14% individuals with disorders. also discuss potential role AI-based AI preventing rehabilitating illnesses, highlighting innovative approaches patient outcomes. significantly disorders various mechanisms. resistance training, mind–body practices, dual-task exercises each offer unique benefits.

This article offers an in-depth analysis of the neurobiological processes theories underpinning benefits PA which arise exercise-induced physiological changes that simultaneously benefit brain function. We discuss role growth factors, neurotransmitters biochemicals, well enhancements in mitochondrial biogenesis antioxidant activity, how they foster exercise performance health. Central our discussion are related depression: "neurotrophic," "neurogenesis," "inflammation," "oxidative stress," "monoamine" hypotheses. also introduce emergent "glutamate hypothesis" lactate release a potential precursor for glutamate. Additionally, we explore "endorphin" "endocannabinoid" hypotheses, underscoring their implications evoking feelings euphoria, pain relief diminished anxiety after exercise. In conclusion, exerts diverse influence on health wellbeing. The dynamic interplay between signals promising avenue future research, with innovative therapeutic strategies disorders.
