| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Low levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) potentially play a role in depression. Because depression is associated with increased risk of heart failure (HF), the pathogenic link between HF and depression has attracted clinical attention. We hypothesized that plasma BDNF levels might be decreased in patients with HF and cardiac rehabilitation might be increase BDNF levels in association with improvement of exercise tolerance and depressive symptom. Lower BDNF levels were associated with HF severity and higher incidences of all-cause mortality. After cardiac rehabilitation, plasma BDNF levels were significantly increased, which was associated with improvement of depressive symptom. However, we could not identify the relations between increase of BDNF level and improvement of exercise tolerance. These findings suggest that BDNF levels was decreased and cardiac rehabilitation can improve the depressive symptom with increase of BDNF levels in patients with HF.
