The GDNF-GFRα1 complex promotes the development of hippocampal dendritic arbors and spines via NCAM [PDF]
The formation of synaptic connections during nervous system development requires the precise control of dendrite growth and synapse formation. Although glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and its receptor GFRα1 are expressed in the ...

The neurotrophic factor concept: a reexamination [PDF]
The neurotrophic factor concept in its basic form envisages that innervated tissues produce a signal for the innervating neurons for the selective limitation of neuronal death occurring during development (Purves, 1986; Oppenheim, 1991). This concept arose several decades ago on the basis of the observation that experimental manipulation of the amount ...

The chronic glutamate‐induced excitotoxicity hypothesis has profoundly informed the therapeutic strategies employed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study shows pigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF) regulates astrocytic glutamate transporter‐1 (GLT‐1)‐mediated glutamate homeostasis and cognition. Reduced PEDF correlates with lower Mini‐Mental State

The systemic environment: at the interface of aging and adult neurogenesis. [PDF]
Aging results in impaired neurogenesis in the two neurogenic niches of the adult mammalian brain, the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricle.

Potentiating Cerebral Perfusion Normalizes Glymphatic Dynamics in Systemic Inflammation
LPS‐induced systemic inflammation increases glymphatic influx but delays cervical lymphatic drainage, accompanied by AQP4 depolarization and impaired glymphatic clearance. Enhancing cerebral blood flow via the inotropic agent levosimendan effectively restored AQP4 polarization, improving glymphatic flux and amyloid‐β clearance.

Machine‐learning‐directed phytochemical pair ACT/FA, administered at BDD's orthodox ratio, synergistically modulates microglial polarization via dual Nrf2/RORγt targeting to attenuate neuroinflammation and depressive behaviors. This concentration‐dependent synergism replicates the parent formula's efficacy while providing a mechanistic basis for ...

The effect of neurotrophic factors in multiple sclerosis treatment: A review
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic and multiphasic autoimmune disease which affecting the nervous system. Recently, neurotrophic factor secreting cells have been proposed as one of the best sources for cell therapy in MS disease. Therefore, this review

NEUROTROPHIC EFFECTS OF ETIFOXINE
Higher anxiety results in the decreased levels of various neurotrophic factors and enkephalins and in impaired production of proinflammatory cytokines. The anxiolytic etifoxine is used to treat anxiety states and adjustment disorders. Etifoxine modulates
