Figure 3. Schematic summarizing 2 major pathways involved in exercise-induced CNS remyelination. Physical exercise excites related neurons in the brain and promotes their myelination via axonal action potentials (white arrows). Physical exercise also stimulates secretion and increases serum levels of myelination-promoting factors that subsequently enter the CNS via blood circulation (gray arrows).
