BDNF Genotype Interacts with Motor Function to Influence Rehabilitation Responsiveness Poststroke
17 May 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Persistent motor impairment is common but highly heterogeneous poststroke. Genetic polymorphisms, including those identified on the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) genes, may contribute to this variability by limiting the capacity for use-dependent neuroplasticity, and hence rehabilitation responsiveness. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether BDNF and APOE genotypes...
