A recent experimental study shows how regular physical exercise modulates iron metabolism in both the brain and the muscles. The findings also help to better understand the benefits of exercise in Alzheimer’s disease. The study was published in a special issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences titled “Redox Active Metals in Neurodegenerative Diseases: Therapeutic Implications.”
Dysregulation of brain iron metabolism and iron accumulation is known to be associated with aging and AD, although underlying mechanisms remain unclear. It is known that iron load and inflammation…
