Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in megakaryocytes [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 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

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in Chronic Periodontitis [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 2014 Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a member of the neurotrophic factor family. Outside the nervous system, BDNF has been shown to be expressed in various nonneural tissues, such as periodontal ligament, dental pulp, and odontoblasts.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor: a new adipokine [PDF]
Biomedical Reviews, 2007 Since leptin discovery in 1994, an extensive body of work has been demonstrating that adipose tissue (mainly its white phenotype) expresses not only metabolic, but also endocrine and paracrine phenotypes, particularly in adipobiology of disease. This new
