It has been speculated about the relationship of obesity and cognitive function decline. In this context, the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is a key component of metabolic dysregulation, and when combined with lower concentrations of brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), promoting cognitive decline. BDNF is involved in different cell functions, however it highlights its effect on th…
Several studies have suggested brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) as a key protein in adaptive responses of the nervous and immune system, metabolic and heart rate regulation. BDNF is a member of neurotrophin family of growth factors and it is present in two isoforms: pro-BDNF, with apoptotic character, and mature BDNF related to cell survival, and then a better neuronal function, a…
