| Core Tip |
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays essential roles in the central nervous system (CNS) through a specific tropomyosin-related kinase receptor B (TrkB), contributing to neuronal survival, neurite outgrowth, and synaptic function. It is critically required for normal development and functions of the brain. A number of reports have shown an importance of BDNF in the pathophysiology of brain-associated diseases. This review describes molecular mechanisms underlying gene expression, transport, and secretion of BDNF and its function in the CNS. We further introduce recent findings on the possible involvement of BDNF in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases, and the potential effectiveness of enhancing BDNF/TrkB system for therapeutic applications.
