Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyse the density of astrocytes and neurons in the motor areas of the cortex, striatum and hippocampus of rats that performed exercise before or after cerebral ischemia. A total of 36 Wistar rats were separated into two groups: One that was subjected to Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO) and the other that underwent surgical access in the absence of ischemia. Both groups were subdivided into: Animals that underwent exercise prior to MCAO and sham surgery (AI and AC, n = 12);… Show more

“…The trained animals with cerebral ischemia presented a significant reduction in the number of errors committed during the false step test. These data may be associated with a substantial decrease in the cerebral infarction area, as reported by Damazio et al (14). According to Marin et al (24), in addition to reducing the area of cerebral infarction in animals that undergo OMCA, exercise training produces improvement in motor performance and coordination.…”

“…Furthermore, the advantages of physical exercise practiced before cerebral ischemia were indicated by several studies, denoting a neuroprotective effect on the brain, in addition to benefits on motor performance 6,7,8 . Angiogenesis in ischemic hearts is also improved when training is used as a treatment, on treadmills, for example, it was able to produce significant improvement in collateral vessel growth in patients with coronary artery disease.…”
