BDNF and cognitive function in Alzheimer’s disease
Introduction Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative pathology that develops mainly in elderly and senile people. Disruption of BDNF transport or suppression of its production appears to be typical for people of old age.

Local BDNF Delivery to the Injured Cervical Spinal Cord using an Engineered Hydrogel Enhances Diaphragmatic Respiratory Function. [PDF]
We developed an innovative biomaterial-based approach to repair the critical neural circuitry that controls diaphragm activation by locally delivering brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to injured cervical spinal cord.

Examination of BDNF Treatment on BACE1 Activity and Acute Exercise on Brain BDNF Signaling [PDF]
Perturbations in metabolism results in the accumulation of beta-amyloid peptides, which is a pathological feature of Alzheimer’s disease. Beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is the rate limiting enzyme responsible for beta-amyloid production.

Imbalance of p75(NTR)/TrkB protein expression in Huntington's disease: Implication for neuroprotective therapies [PDF]
Neuroprotective therapies based on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) administration have been proposed for Huntington's disease (HD) treatment. However, our group has recently reported reduced levels of TrkB in HD mouse models and HD human brain ...

Relationship between BDNF and oxytocin
Converging, albeit scattered data mainly gathered in animals indicate that the neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the nonapeptide oxytocin (OT) interact in a cooperative way. Data in humans are really limited and indirect. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to explore the possible existence of a link between OT and BDNF ...

Background: Low brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been reported in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Resistance exercise improves levels of BDNF in T2DM; however, it is unknown what amount of exercise intensity will alter its ...

A network map of BDNF/TRKB and BDNF/p75NTR signaling system [PDF]
Neurotrophic factors are growth factors, which play an essential role in the development and maintenance of nervous system. These include members of the nerve growth factor (NGF) family, known as neurotrophins. Nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin 3 (NT-3), neurotrophin 4 (NT4/5) and neurotrophin 6 (NT-6 ...
