While a plethora of biological outcome measures are influenced by physical interventions in MS, including TNF-α, BDNF, IL-6, matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), soluble receptor of IL-6 (sIL-6R), nerve growth factor (NGF), and/or brain MRI measures (functional, gray matter) (Bansi et al., 2013; Leavitt et al., 2014; Deckx et al., 2015, 2016; Kierkegaard et al., 2016; Wens et al., 2016; Feys et al., 2017; Sandroff et al., 2017; Zimmer et al., 2017), research on the effects of mindfulness on biomarkers in MS remains elusive. The gene discussed is BDNF; the disease is myeloid sarcoma.
