Figure 7. BDNF Protein Alteration is Restricted to the Sciatic Nerve.

Figure 7

Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) protein quantification in (A) sciatic nerve, (B) spinal cord, (C) dorsal root ganglia (DRG), (D) gastrocnemius, and (E) hindpaw skin. BDNF protein expression was altered only in the sciatic nerve (C) where exercise significantly increased expression in both exercise groups. HF-Ex mice had significantly decreased BDNF expression compared to Std-Ex mice. Other tissues did not display any alterations in BDNF protein expression. Data are presented as means±SEM where n=8-11 per group per tissue.
