ABSTRACT
The competitive sports are beneficial to cardiovascular system and brain health. However, physical exercise is accompanied with risks. Severe trauma is possible in competitive sports that may impact on the head and body. In recent years, more interests are aroused in sports-related traumatic brain injury(TBI), especially the mild TBI(mTBI). Repetitive mTBI can cause persistent cognitive, behavioral and mental problems, leading to chronic traumatic encephalopathy(CTE) and eventually resulting in neurodegeneration. In this study, the authors summarize the pathological characteristics and mechanism of CTE induced by mTBI due to competitive exercise so as to reveal the pathogenesis of CTE and provide valuable information for early diagnosis, development of disease biomarkers and explore effective therapeutic targets.
