Brain-derived neurotrophic factor as a potential risk locus for bipolar disorder: evidence, limitations, and implications.

Current psychiatry reports - 1 Dec 2003

Green Elaine, Craddock Nick

Abstract excerpt

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in promoting and modifying growth, development, and survival of neuronal populations, and, in the mature nervous system, is involved in activity-dependent neuronal plasticity. Based on several lines of evidence, BDNF has been hypoth...
