GDNF and alcohol use disorder [PDF]

open access: yesAddiction Biology, 2018
AbstractGlial cell line‐derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has been extensively studied for its role in the development and maintenance of the midbrain dopaminergic system, although evidence suggests that GDNF also plays a role in drug and alcohol addiction. This review focuses on the unique actions of GDNF in the mechanisms that prevent the transition

GDNF-based therapies, GDNF-producing interneurons, and trophic support of the dopaminergic nigrostriatal pathway. Implications for Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
The glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a well-established trophic agent for dopaminergic (DA) neurons in vitro and in vivo. GDNF is necessary for maintenance of neuronal morphological and neurochemical phenotype and protects DA neurons

Pre-α-pro-GDNF and Pre-β-pro-GDNF Isoforms Are Neuroprotective in the 6-hydroxydopamine Rat Model of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is one of the most studied neurotrophic factors. GDNF has two splice isoforms, full-length pre-α-pro-GDNF (α-GDNF) and pre-β-pro-GDNF (β-GDNF), which has a 26 amino acid deletion in the pro-region.

Selective injury to dopaminergic neurons up-regulates GDNF in substantia nigra postnatal cell cultures: Role of neuron–glia crosstalk

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2006
The effect of selective injury to dopaminergic neurons on the expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) was examined in substantia nigra cell cultures.

Functional Analysis of Zebrafish GDNF

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2001
We have identified zebrafish orthologues of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and the ligand-binding component of its receptor GFRalpha1. We examined the mRNA expression pattern of these genes in the developing spinal cord primary motor neurons (PMN), kidney, and enteric nervous systems (ENS) and have identified areas of correlated ...

GDNF and GFRα1 Are Required for Proper Integration of Adult-Born Hippocampal Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: The glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is required for the survival and differentiation of diverse neuronal populations during nervous system development.

Insight into the role of GDNF and the GDNF family of receptors in glioblastoma

open access: yes
Glioblastoma is the most aggressive and the most common type of primary brain cancer, and despite treatment consisting of surgical tumor removal, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, glioblastoma patients have a poor prognosis with a median survival of 15 months and a five-year survival of 5-7 %.

GDNF expression during Xenopus development

open access: yesGene Expression Patterns, 2007
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has multiple roles in kidney morphogenesis, spermatogenesis, and neurogenesis during development. In this study, we report the cloning and expression pattern of Xenopus laevis GDNF. The X. laevis GDNF cDNA sequence has a complete open reading frame of 684 bases, predicting 227 amino acid residues at ...

Aberrantly expressed GFRα-1/RET in patients with lacrimal adenoid cystic carcinoma is associated with high recurrence risk: a retrospective study of 51 LACC cases

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2021
Objective: Because of the poor prognosis of lacrimal adenoid cystic carcinoma (LACC), we aimed to investigate the effects of perineural invasion (PNI) and consequent aberrations in GDNF/GFRα-1/RET protein expression on LACC recurrence.

Review on significance of GDNF, PTCH1 and RNF213 in chromophobe renal cell carcinoma illustrated by the case of 71-years-old man

open access: yesPolish Journal of Pathology, 2020
Here we review the role of GDNF, PTCH1, RNF213 illustrated by a case of renal cell carcinoma, chromophobe type (pT2a 8th pTNM edition) of the left kidney of 71-year-old man.
