The brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene is mapped to human chromosome 11p14.1. BDNF is a member of the neurotrophin family of growth factors. The gene encodes a precursor protein, proBDNF. Mature BDNF (mBDNF) is synthesized by post-translational cleavage of proBDNF. Both proBDNF and mBDNF play crucial roles in cellular signaling.

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas
Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is involved in hippocampal function and verbal episodic memory in humans. Hence, variation in the BDNF gene expression alters these neurological functions. BDNF also plays a vital role in vascular function and participates in angiogenesis via the specific receptor tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB). It is involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer′s disease. ProBDNF interacts with p75 neurotrophin receptor, leading to long-term depression in the hippocampus.

The canonical phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitors produce antidepressant-like effects in a variety of animal models. However, severe side effects, particularly vomiting and nausea, limit their clinical application. FCPR16 is a novel PDE4 inhibitor with less vomiting potential. However, whether it

Phosphodiesterase 4 is a promising target for developing novel antidepressants. However, prototype phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors show severe side effects, including nausea and vomiting. N-Isopropyl-3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-difluoromethoxy benzamide (FCPR03) is a novel phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor with little emetic potential. In the present study
