Abstract excerpt
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily, is a potent neurotrophic factor for several neuron populations in the central and peripheral nervous system. Members of the neurotrophin, neurokine, and TGF-beta families of...
