Blood particles from active rats change gene activity in older rats
Nine sedentary male rats received brain infusions for seven days; particles from exercised donors prompted molecular changes consistent with exercise adaptations.Nine sedentary male rats received brain infusions for seven days; particles from exercised donors prompted molecular changes consistent with exercise adaptations.
Rat studyInterventions
Who was studiedAged sedentary male rats, against rats receiving sedentary-donor exosomes
What changedBrain gene activity changed in 40 pathways with exercise-donor exosomes compared with sedentary-donor exosomes
The catchCo-isolated apoptotic bodies could contribute to the observed gene activity changes
