The Effects of Treadmill Exercise on the Recovery of Synaptic Plasticity in Septic Mice: A Focus on Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor/Tropomyosin-Related Kinase B Signaling

AUTHORS: Soejima, Takashi MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia ():10.1213/ANE.0000000000007572, May 23, 2025. BACKGROUND: Sepsis-associated encephalopathy causes irreversible cognitive dysfunction, yet no effective pharmacological treatments are available. The hippocampus is particularly vulnerable to sepsis-induced damage, and impairments in hippocampal synaptic plasticity, particularly late-phase long-term potentiation (L-LTP), are implicated in cognitive dysfunction. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and […]
