Extracellular vesicles contribute to the beneficial effects of exercise training in APP/PS1 mice by Oliver K. Fuller, Emma D. McLennan, Casey L. Egan, Nimna Perera, Lauren V. Terry, Jae Pyun, Mariana de Mendonca, Guilherme Defante Telles, Benoit Smeuninx, Emma L. Burrows, Ghizal Siddiqui, Darren J. Creek, John W. Scott, Michael A. Pearen, Pamali Fonseka, Joseph A. Nicolazzo, Suresh Mathivanan, Anthony J. Hannan, Grant A. Ramm, Martin Whitham, Mark A. Febbraio

“…Here, we first examined the effect of voluntary exercise training (VET) on energy metabolism and cognitive function in the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse (Tg) model of familial AD. Next, we profiled extracellular vesicles (EVs) and examined whether they may play a role in the protective effects of VET via intranasal administration of EVs, purified from the blood of sedentary (sEV) and/or acutely exercised (eEV) donor wild-type mice into APP/PS1Tg mice. …”
