Quadrato motor training (QMT) influences IL-1β expression and creativity: Implications for inflammatory state reduction and cognitive enhancement.

Progress in Brain Research 2023 Loredana Verdone, Fabio Marson, Micaela Caserta et al.

Mind-body practices and meditation have been increasingly studied in recent years due to their beneficial effects on cognition, and physical and psychological health.

Quadrato Motor Training (QMT) is associated with DNA methylation changes at DNA repeats: A pilot study.

PLoS One 2023 Fabio Marson, Michele Zampieri, Loredana Verdone et al.

The control of non-coding repeated DNA by DNA methylation plays an important role in genomic stability, contributing to health and healthy aging. Mind-body practices can elicit psychophysical wellbeing via epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation. However, in this context the effects of movement meditations have rarely been examined. Consequently, the current study investigates the...
