Exercise and DHA supplementation provide protection against BDNF and p-TrkB reduction after FPI. (A) FPI reduced BDNF levels, which were counteracted by DHA, exercise, or combination of both. A greater increase was observed when exercise was combined with DHA. (B) FPI reduced p-TrkB levels, which were counteracted by DHA or exercise. A greater effect was observed when exercise was combined with DHA. *, p<0.05 vs CTL. #, p< 0.05. CTL, Sham-RGD-Sed. FPI, fluid percussion injury. Sed, Sedentary. Exc, Exercise.
