The lack of physical activity can be secondary to PCS-related fatigue, which in turn lead to a reduced formation of serotonin, endorphin, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and vascular endothelial growth factor, leading to restricted neurogenesis, which in turn results in reduced neuronal plasticity with the consequence of increased depression, anxiety and reduced self-esteem [44]. This evidence concerns the gene VEGFA and depressive disorder.
