Effect of treadmill exercise on miR-191-5p expression in the hippocampus of sleep-deprived rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Epigenetics, 2023
The positive and protective effects of regular exercise on the learning and memory impairments induced by sleep deprivation (SD) have been demonstrated in previous studies, and recently, it was found that miR-191-5p by targeting BDNF as an essential ...

BDNF: an indicator of insomnia? [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2013
In the last decade, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has become increasingly accepted as a central mediator of the effects of stress on neuronal plasticity and its implication for psychopathology. Neurotrophic functions of BDNF are implicated with neuronal survival, learning, memory, appetite and sleep.1, 2 The neurotrophin hypothesis is based ...

The effect of morphine upon DNA methylation in ten regions of the rat brain

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2017
Morphine is one of the most effective analgesics in medicine. However, its use is associated with the development of tolerance and dependence. Recent studies demonstrating epigenetic changes in the brain after exposure to opiates have provided insight ...

Changes in serum brain derived neurotrophic factor following high intensity interval training among obese undergraduates

open access: yesThe Proceedings of the Nigerian Academy of Science, 2021
The study examined changes in Serum Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) following High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) programme among obese undergraduates. The pretest-posttest randomized experimental design was employed for the study.

Associations of BDNF/BDNF-AS SNPs with Depression, Schizophrenia, and Bipolar Disorder

open access: yesJournal of Personalized Medicine, 2023
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is crucial for various aspects of neuronal development and function, including synaptic plasticity, neurotransmitter release, and supporting neuronal differentiation, growth, and survival. It is involved in the formation and preservation of dopaminergic, serotonergic, GABAergic, and cholinergic neurons ...

Gene expression and DNA methylation changes in the hypothalamus and hippocampus of adult rats developmentally exposed to bisphenol A or ethinyl estradiol: a CLARITY-BPA consortium study

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2018
Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC), is a ubiquitous pollutant. As part of the Consortium Linking Academic and Regulatory Insights on BPA Toxicity (CLARITY-BPA), we sought to determine whether exposure of Sprague-Dawley rats to 2 ...

The BDNF rs6265 variant may interact with overweight and obesity to influence obesity-related physical, metabolic and behavioural traits in Pakistani individuals

open access: yesAnnals of Human Biology, 2018
Background: The association of the variant rs6265 (G>A) in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene with obesity and other obesity-related parameters is not known for the Pakistani population.

BDNF and memory processing [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropharmacology, 2014
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor has emerged as one of the most important molecules involved in memory. Its wide role in different types of memories that depend on different structures as well as its involvement in distinct memory stages points at BDNF as one likely target to treat cognitive impairments and anxiety-related memory disorders.

BDNF-DT and BDNF-AS-DT : Novel Genes in the BDNF locus

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry
Abstract Divergent transcription from bidirectional promoters is frequently observed in eukaryotic genomes, but the biological relevance of divergent RNA transcripts (DT) is unknown. We identified and characterized BDNF-DT , a novel DT gene, and BDNF-AS-DT
