A receptor-independent signaling pathway for BDNF
2022-08-23
Abstract excerpt
In addition to its well-known receptor-mediated function in cell survival, differentiation and growth, we report that the extracellular brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) also controls the intracellular KEAP1-NRF2 cytoprotective system by a receptor-independent pathway. Extracellular BDNF can cross the cell membrane as it possesses a protein-translocation domain, also known as cell-penetrating peptide. This...
