Target-derived neurotrophic factors regulate the death of developing forebrain neurons after a change in their trophic requirements [PDF]
Many neurons die as the normal brain develops. How this is regulated and whether the mechanism involves neurotrophic molecules from target cells are unknown.

The impact of brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene polymorphisms on post-stroke naming in aphasia. [PDF]
Post-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 ...

Melatonin: A Neurotrophic Factor?
Melatonin, N-acetyl-5-hydroxytryptamine, is a hormone that synchronizes the internal environment with the photoperiod. It is synthesized in the pineal gland and greatly depends on the endogenous circadian clock located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and ...

Neurotrophic basis to the pathogenesis of depression and phytotherapy
Depression is a major neuropsychiatric disease that considerably impacts individuals’ psychosocial function and life quality. Neurotrophic factors are now connected to the pathogenesis of depression, while the definitive neurotrophic basis remains ...

Ciliary neurotrophic factor [PDF]
AbstractCiliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) was first identified and partially purified from embryonic chick eye tissues. Subsequently, it was shown that CNTF is also present in large amounts in sciatic nerves of adult rats and rabbits, which led to its final purification and cloning. CNTF is not secreted by the classical secretory pathway involving the
