Abstract Synopsis

  • Exercise has been shown to improve brain function through various mechanisms like reducing inflammation, increasing blood flow, and boosting neurotrophic factors and neurotransmitters.
  • The three main monoamine neurotransmitters affected by exercise are dopamine (DA), noradrenaline (NE), and serotonin (5HT), which play key roles in brain health.
  • Understanding how exercise influences these neurotransmitters may help in combating neurological disorders and enhancing cognitive performance.
