Abstract

Exercise could improve the cognitive function in AD, and the effects of exercise on the white matter of AD might be one of the structural bases for the protective effect of exercise on the cognitive function of AD. The exercise-induced protection of the white matter in AD might be due to the fact that the exercise prevented the demyelination of the myelinated fibers in the white matter of AD.
