High-Intensity Exercise can Reverse Neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s, study suggests

Dopamine Transporter Levels Pre- and Post-Exercise. A Average 18F-FE-PE2I DAT BPND images before and after six months of exercise. The red box including the midbrain and SN is enlarged. B 18F-FE-PE2I BPND in the SN pre- and post-exercise by study participant. Individual lines are red if an increase was observed, blue if a decrease was observed. The solid black line represents the mean of our cohort, the dashed black line represents the expected decrease from the pre-exercise average in the absence of intervention.
