Absence of Ret signaling in mice causes progressive and late degeneration of the nigrostriatal system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Support of ageing neurons by endogenous neurotrophic factors such as glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may determine whether the neurons resist or succumb to neurodegeneration.

GDNF Overexpression from the Native Locus Reveals its Role in the Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic System Function.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Degeneration of nigrostriatal dopaminergic system is the principal lesion in Parkinson's disease. Because glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) promotes survival of dopamine neurons in vitro and in vivo, intracranial delivery of GDNF has ...

Low Levels of Adenosine and GDNF Are Potential Risk Factors for Parkinson’s Disease with Sleep Disorders

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Sleep disturbances are the most prevalent non-motor symptoms in the preclinical stage of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Adenosine, glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and associated neurotransmitters are crucial in the control of sleep arousal.

A Safe GDNF and GDNF/BDNF Controlled Delivery System Improves Migration in Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells and Survival in Retinal Ganglion Cells: Potential Usefulness in Degenerative Retinal Pathologies

open access: yes, 2021
We assessed the sustained delivery effect of poly (lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA)/vitamin E (VitE) microspheres (MSs) loaded with glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) alone (GDNF-MSs) or combined with brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF ...

SorLA Controls Neurotrophic Activity by Sorting of GDNF and Its Receptors GFRα1 and RET

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
Glial cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent neurotrophic factor that has reached clinical trials for Parkinson’s disease. GDNF binds to its coreceptor GFRα1 and signals through the transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase RET, or RET ...

Six month delivery of GDNF from PLGA/vitamin E biodegradable microspheres after intravitreal injection in rabbits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Local long-term delivery of glial cell line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) from vitamin E/poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid microspheres (MSs) protects retinal ganglion cells in an animal model of glaucoma for up to 11 weeks. However, the pharmacokinetics

The Noradrenergic System of Aged GDNF Heterozygous Mice

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2003
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a trophic factor for noradrenergic (NE) neurons of the pontine nucleus locus coeruleus (LC).

Benefits of putaminal GDNF infusion in Parkinson disease are maintained after GDNF cessation [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology, 2013
We previously reported clinical improvement, increase in putamen [(18)F]-dopa uptake on PET imaging, and neuropathologic evidence of sprouting of dopaminergic fibers following chronic intraputaminal delivery of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD).(1-3) We now provide clinical and PET evidence of ...

A regulatable adenovector system for GDNF and GFP delivery in the rat hippocampus

open access: yes, 2020
Spatial memory performance declines in both normal aging and Alzheimer's disease. This cognitive deficit is related to hippocampus dysfunction. Gene therapy using neurotrophic factors like Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) emerges as a ...
