Abstract excerpt
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has many functions including regulation of kidney morphogenesis and of neuron growth and survival in the enteric, sensory and central nervous systems.

We recently showed that GDNF signalling requires cell surface heparan sulphate...
