Recent Advances on the Role of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Neurotrophins, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), are essential for neuronal survival and growth. The signaling cascades initiated by BDNF and its receptor are the key regulators of synaptic plasticity, which plays important role in ...

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in Alzheimer’s disease and its pharmaceutical potential

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration, 2022
Synaptic abnormalities are a cardinal feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) that are known to arise as the disease progresses. A growing body of evidence suggests that pathological alterations to neuronal circuits and synapses may provide a mechanistic ...

Acute effects of two different work-to-rest ratio of high-intensity interval training on brain-derived neurotrophic factor in untrained young men

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Aerobic exercise could produce a positive effect on the brain by releasing brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). In untrained healthy humans there seems to be a linear correlation between exercise duration and the positive effect of acute

The role of brain derived neurotrophic factor in central nervous system

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has multiple biological functions which are mediated by the activation of two receptors, tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) receptor and the p75 neurotrophin receptor, involving in physiological and pathological

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the airways [PDF]

open access: yesPharmacology & Therapeutics, 2014
In addition to their well-known roles in the nervous system, there is increasing recognition that neurotrophins such as brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) as well as their receptors are expressed in peripheral tissues including the lung, and can thus potentially contribute to both normal physiology and pathophysiology of several diseases.

Assessment of attention, memory, and salivary brain-derived neurotrophic factor in chronic smokers: A cross-sectional observational study

open access: yesMedical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, 2023
Objective: Chronic smoking leads to cognitive impairments and affects the peripheral brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels. BDNF is responsible for synaptic plasticity and memory.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in primary headaches [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2012
Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is associated with pain modulation and central sensitization. Recently, a role of BDNF in migraine and cluster headache pathophysiology has been suspected due to its known interaction with calcitonin gene-related peptide.

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 ...

Sedentary behavior, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and brain structure in midlife: A longitudinal brain MRI sub-study of the coronary artery risk development in young adults study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
BACKGROUND: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels are higher in those who are physically active and lower in people with cognitive dysfunction. This study investigated whether brain-derived neurotrophic factor mediated or modified the association of ...
