Editorial: Physical exercise and brain health: functional mediators and therapeutic targets focusing on neuroendocrinology

It is now online the editorial: Editorial: Physical exercise and brain health: functional mediators and therapeutic targets focusing on neuroendocrinology by Weina Liu, Laura Piccardi, Howe Liu, Li Zhang, Chengyi Liu and Jie Xia published in Frontiers in Neuroscience.

The editorial introduces a research topic that addresses neuropsychiatric disorders, particularly in the context of the increasing prevalence of metabolic diseases and brain-related conditions; the significance of physical exercise as a valuable adjunct becomes apparent. By exploring the intricate dynamics of this relationship, we can gain a deeper understanding of how exercise revolutionizes our strategies for mental health care. This Research Topic includes six studies focusing on enhancing comprehension of the intersection between neuroendocrinology and physical exercise within the realm of brain diseases.
