Abstract
⺠Chronic use of nandrolone decanoate (ND) is associated with changes in cognitive functions. ⺠Voluntary exercise enhances cognitive functions via a BDNF-dependent mechanism. ⺠Voluntary exercise was unable to improve the disruption of cognitive functions by chronic ND. ⺠Voluntary exercise-induced increase in hippocampal BDNF levels was potentiated by ND. ⺠Increased levels of BDNF may play a role in ND-induced impairments in learning and memory.
