A molecule released during exercise (GPLD1) may help explain how physical activity protects the brain. When UCSF researchers increased GPLD1 in mice, memory improved even without exercise, opening the door for potential future therapies for those with physical limitations. https://ucsfh.org/4oBPcrZ
New research suggests that a molecule released into the bloodstream during exercise, called GPLD1, may be a key part of how exercise keeps the brain healthy.
