Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) promotes neuroprotection and neuroregeneration.
In animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD), BDNF enhances the survival of dopaminergic …

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is one of the most studied neurotrophins in the
healthy and diseased brain. As a result, there is a large body of evidence that associates …

It is well known that brain-derived neurotrophic factor, BDNF, has an important role in a
variety of neuronal aspects, such as differentiation, maturation, and synaptic function in the …

Neurotrophic factors comprise essential secreted proteins that have several functions in
neural and non-neural tissues, mediating the development, survival and maintenance of …

It has been demonstrated that physical training increases serum brain-derived neurotrophic
factor (BDNF) in healthy people. The aim of this study was to establish the effect of physical …

Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD),
and Huntington's disease (HD), are characterized by the progressive degeneration of …

Neuronal cell injury, as a consequence of acute or chronic neurological trauma, is a
significant cause of mortality around the world. On a molecular level, the condition is …

Background. Exercise may decrease the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) in humans and
reduce PD symptoms in animal models. The beneficial effects have been linked to increased …

Background Neurotrophic factors are endogenous proteins promoting the survival of
different neural cells. Therefore, they elicited great interest as a possible treatment for …

Results AD patients had significantly lower (p< 0.001) BDNF serum levels compared to MCI,
CN and ND controls. Age and education had significant influence on BDNF serum levels …
