PG - 1348-53 LID - S1388-2457(14)00533-1 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.clinph.2014.09.028 [doi] AB - OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether there is a relation between the plasticity induced by different intensities of facilitatory rTMS with different intensities and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) genotype. METHODS: Forty healthy volunteers (14 men, mean age 27.3years) were enrolled. All participants received three high-frequency rTMS applications in random order over the non-dominant primary motor cortex with more than a 24-h washout period: 1st condition, rTMS with sub-threshold intensity; 2nd condition, rTMS with supra-threshold intensity; and 3rd condition, sham rTMS. Cortical excitability was assessed before and after rTMS using motor-evoked potentials (MEPs). Data were analyzed using the BDNF genotype. RESULTS: Twelve, 19, and 9 participants were classified into Val/Val, Val/Met, and Met/Met groups, respectively. In each group, there were significant increases in the amplitude of MEPs after 1st and 2nd conditions (P<0.05), but not after 3rd condition. In Val/Val group, the increase ratio of MEPs' amplitude after 2nd condition was significantly higher than 1st condition (P<0.05). However, no significant amplitude differences in Val/Met and Met/Met groups were observed after 1st and 2nd conditions. CONCLUSIONS: High-frequency rTMS induces the facilitation of cortical excitability regardless of BDNF genotype. BDNF genotype might influence on different responses of plasticity based on the rTMS intensity. SIGNIFICANCE: BDNF genotype is one of influence factors on the plasticity after the facilitatory rTMS.
