Ras p21 protein promotes survival and fiber outgrowth of cultured embryonic neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Although evidence obtained with the PC12 cell line has suggested a role for the ras oncogene proteins in the signal transduction of nerve growth factor-mediated fiber outgrowth, little is known about the signal transduction mechanisms involved in the ...

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in megakaryocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The biosynthesis of endogenous BDNF has thus far been examined in neurons where it is expressed at very low levels, in an activity-dependent fashion. In humans, BDNF has long been known to accumulate in circulating platelets, at levels far higher than in

Nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and the chronobiology of mood: a new insight into the "neurotrophic hypothesis" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The light information pathways and their relationship with the body rhythms have generated a new insight into the neurobiology and the neurobehavioral sciences, as well as into the clinical approaches to human diseases associated with disruption of ...

Target-derived neurotrophic factors regulate the death of developing forebrain neurons after a change in their trophic requirements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Many neurons die as the normal brain develops. How this is regulated and whether the mechanism involves neurotrophic molecules from target cells are unknown.

Modulation of neurotrophic signaling pathways by polyphenols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Polyphenols are an important class of phytochemicals, and several lines of evidence have demonstrated their beneficial effects in the context of a number of pathologies including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. In

Long-term neuroprotection and neurorestoration by glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor microspheres for the treatment of parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor is a survival factor for dopaminergic neurons and a promising candidate for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. However, the delivery issue of the protein to the brain still remains unsolved.

Involvement of ras p2I in Neurotrophin-induced Response of Sensory, but Not Sympathetic Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Little is known about the signal transduction mechanisms involved in the response to neurotrophins and other neurotrophic factors in neurons, beyond the activation of the tyrosine kinase activity of the neurotrophin receptors belonging to the trk family.

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor Augments Neurotrophin Expression and Corticospinal Axon Growth after Adult CNS Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) modulates glial and neuronal function in development and after peripheral nerve injury, but little is known regarding its role in the injured adult CNS.

Genetically engineered mesenchymal stem cells as a proposed therapeutic for Huntington's disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
There is much interest in the use of mesenchymal stem cells/marrow stromal cells (MSC) to treat neurodegenerative disorders, in particular those that are fatal and difficult to treat, such as Huntington's disease.

Signaling pathways linking behavior to neurogenesis in healthy brain and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Self-repair of the adult brain is limited – most diseases lack effective therapy. In order to better understand how a regenerative response can be achieved, studying mechanisms shaping the neurogenic niche, from environmental factors to intrinsic ...
