General description

Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) belongs to a family of secreted proteins called neurotrophins that includes, nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-3 (NT3) and NT4/5. BDNF is expressed in the developing and the mature brain. The influence of BDNF is mediated by its binding to TrkB receptor and sometimes the receptor p75NTR. The downstream pathways promoted by BDNF include PI3K, MAPK and JAK/STAT. The most important role of BDNF is the regulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity, protein synthesis and phosphorylation of local proteins. The secretion of BDNF is highly regulated at both transcriptional and translational levels since it is involved in the proper function of neuronal circuit and development of cognitive functions. The deficits in BDNF functions are implicated in a number of neurodegenerative disorders such as Huntington′s disease, schizophrenia and dementia

The prevalence of depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and drug and alcohol use disorders peaks during adolescence. Further, up to 50% of "adult" mental health disorders emerge in adolescence. During adolescence, the prefrontal cortex (PFC) undergoes dramatic structural reorganization, in which dendritic

Huntington's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the selective loss of striatal neurons and, to a lesser extent, cortical neurons. The neurodegenerative process is caused by the mutation of huntingtin gene. Recent studies have established a link between mutant

Specific corticostriatal structures and circuits are important for flexibly shifting between goal-oriented versus habitual behaviors. For example, the orbitofrontal cortex and dorsomedial striatum are critical for goal-directed action, while the dorsolateral striatum supports habits. To determine the role of neurotrophin

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) are known to regulate synaptic plasticity, neurogenesis and neuronal survival in the adult brain. These two signals co-regulate one another such that 5-HT stimulates the expression of BDNF, and BDNF enhances the

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most common psychiatric disorder, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Increasing evidence shows that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in the structural plasticity induced by depression. Considering the
