Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, stress and depression: a minireview.

Brain research bulletin - 30 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a member of the nerve growth factor family, and is widely expressed in the adult mammalian brain. Besides its well known neuroprotective activity after traumatic brain injury the evidences regarding its activity dependent release by the pathophysiology of major depression are rapidly replicating. Considering the data that stress plays an important role by the...
