Increased cerebellar volume and BDNF level following quadrato motor training

Abstract

Using whole-brain structural measures coupled to analysis of salivary brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), we demonstrate sensory motor training-induced plasticity, including cerebellar gray matter volume increment and increased BDNF level. The increase of cerebellar volume was positively correlated with the increase of BDNF level. Additional Supporting Information may be found in the online version of this article.
