Abstract:
Depression is an affective disorder caused by multiple factors,and its pathogenesis is still unclear.However,in recent years,studies have found an association between neuroinflammation and depression,which is mainly reflected in the interaction of their pathogeneses,such as abnormalities of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain,dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis,and dysfunction of neurogenesis.Currently,exercise as a therapy for depression has attracted widespread attention.By reviewing relevant research reports,this article summarizes that exercise alleviates neuroinflammation by playing an anti-inflammatory role,thus improving the mood-related pathway to treat depression.Furthermore,this article explores the effects of different exercise prescriptions on the anti-inflammatory role of exercise,aiming to provide new scientific ideas for the treatment of depression associated with neuroinflammation.
