  4. Regulation of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in the Adult Mouse Brain

    Malkovska, Irena2010

    … adult central nervous system (CNS) brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been implicated in neuroprotection and synaptic plasticity among other functions. However, relatively little is known of its regulation. In this thesis, we attempted to learn more about BDNF regulation by means of: an …

    … disorder (ADHD), and depression is brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). As a trophic factor, BDNF role is to assist in the growth, survival, and differentiation of neurons. However, there is increasing evidence that BDNF may mediate neurotransmitter dynamics. Our goals were to understand how …

  7. The glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor family in the olfactory system and brain

    Kaplinovsky, TamilaUNSW, Sydney2015

    Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) family signaling has been implicated in development, survival and function of many different cell types, including neurons in the central nervous system. The family consists of four ligands [GDNF, neurturin (NTN), artemin and persephin] which bind …

    Smith, Alwyn Johannes2014

    Motivation - Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a protein complex, synthesised and secreted mainly by the central nervous system and is involved in neuronal maintenance. Research suggests that BDNF is implicated in various neurological and psychiatric diseases, while recent evidence …

  10. Identification and characterization of a novel neurotrophic factor secreted by a mouse Schwann cell line

    Xu, Ren Y.University of British Columbia1993

    During development, neurotrophic factors regulate morphologic and functional differentiation in addition to their role as regulators of neuronal survival. Schwann cells are the major glial elements in the peripheral nervous system and, therefore, could play a major functional role in supporting …

    LIM CHIAT KOO2006

    Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) signaling through its receptor GFRI?1 plays an important role in many biological processes including cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. The aim of this project was to isolate and characterize both Gdnf and GfrI?1 from the medaka fish …

  12. Ciliary neurotrophic factor signaling in the magnocellular neurosecretory system : mechanisms of neuronal survival and sprouting

    Askvig, Jason Michael

    <p>While it is well-known that ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) promotes the survival of a myriad of neuronal phenotypes, little is understood on the specific CNTF-induced neuroprotective mechanisms in the central nervous system (CNS). Elucidation of these mechanisms may provide insight that …
