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

The impact of brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene polymorphisms on post-stroke naming in aphasia. [PDF]
PLoS ONEPost-stroke aphasia, or language deficits after stroke, afflicts 20-30% of survivors and often persists into the chronic phase. The protein brain-derived neurotrophic factor has been identified as important for neuroplasticity, and is regulated by the ...

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

Abnormal expression of cerebrospinal fluid cation chloride cotransporters in patients with Rett Syndrome [PDF]
, 2013 Objective: Rett Syndrome is a progressive neurodevelopmental disorder caused mainly by mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG-binding protein 2. The relevance of MeCP2 for GABAergic function was previously documented in animal models. In these models,
