Prefrontal BDNF Levels After Anodal Epidural Direct Current Stimulation in Rats

Prefrontal BDNF Levels After Anodal Epidural Direct Current Stimulation in Rats

This study measured levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) after single (S) and repetitive (R) anodal epidural DC stimulation (eDCS) over the left medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Male Wistar rats (n = 4 per group) received single application of sham (S-sha...
