Review
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF): role in neuronal development and survival
Folia Morphol (Warsz).
1993.
Abstract
In 1989 Leitbrock et al. reported the full primary structure of brain-derived neurotrophic factor. The messenger RNA for BDNF was found predominantly in the central nervous system, and the sequence of protein indicated its structural relation to NGF. BDNF belongs to a larger family of neurotrophic molecules. It stimulates the neurite outgrowth and supports neuronal survival.
