# brain: short-term exercise enhances brain function

<< Exercise is cheap, and you don't necessarily need a fancy gym membership or have to run 10 miles a day, >> Gary Westbrook

AA << designed a study in mice that specifically measured the brain's response to single bouts of exercise in otherwise sedentary mice that were placed for short periods on running wheels. The mice ran a few kilometers in two hours. >>

<< short-term bursts of exercise- the human equivalent of a weekly game of pickup basketball, or 4,000 steps- promoted an increase in synapses in the hippocampus. Scientists made the key discovery by analyzing genes that were increased in single neurons activated during exercise. >>

<< One particular gene stood out: Mtss1L. This gene had been largely ignored in prior studies in the brain. >>

AA << results link short-term effects of exercise to activity-dependent expression of Mtss1L, which propose as a novel effector of activity- dependent rearrangement of synapses. >>
