Melatonin: A Neurotrophic Factor?

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
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 the retina’s exposure to different light intensities.

Antidepressant-like effects of trophic factor receptor signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
A significant body of research has demonstrated that antidepressants regulate neurotrophic factors and that neurotrophins themselves are capable of independently producing antidepressant-like effects.

Trophic and neurotrophic factors in human pituitary adenomas (Review) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The pituitary gland is an organ that functionally connects the hypothalamus with the peripheral organs. The pituitary gland is an important regulator of body homeostasis during development, stress, and other processes.

The Role of BDNF on Neural Plasticity in Depression

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Using behavioral, pharmacological, and molecular methods, lots of studies reveal that depression is closely related to the abnormal neural plasticity processes occurring in the prefrontal cortex and limbic system such as the hippocampus and amygdala ...

Neurotrophic Factors and Their Receptors [PDF]

open access: bronzeCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 1995
Several new members of the nerve growth factor family of neurotrophins, which comprises nerve growth factor itself, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophins-3, -4 (also known as neurotrophin-5) and -6, have been isolated in recent years.

Modulation of neurotrophic signaling pathways by polyphenols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Polyphenols are an important class of phytochemicals, and several lines of evidence have demonstrated their beneficial effects in the context of a number of pathologies including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. In

MANF: A New Player in the Control of Energy Homeostasis, and Beyond

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
All human behaviors, including the control of energy homeostasis, are ultimately mediated by neuronal activities in the brain. Neurotrophic factors represent a protein family that plays important roles in regulating neuronal development, function, and ...

Target-derived neurotrophic factors regulate the death of developing forebrain neurons after a change in their trophic requirements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Many neurons die as the normal brain develops. How this is regulated and whether the mechanism involves neurotrophic molecules from target cells are unknown.

Neurotrophic factors and neuroplasticity pathways in the pathophysiology and treatment of depression

open access: yesPsychopharmacology, 2018
Depression is a major health problem with a high prevalence and a heavy socioeconomic burden in western societies. It is associated with atrophy and impaired functioning of cortico-limbic regions involved in mood and emotion regulation.
