文摘Discovered in pig brains in 1982,the brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)is one of the most studied and characterized neurotrophins in the central nervous system.In recent years,BDNF has received considerable attention for its importance in the development and maintenance of normal brain function.This is because BDNF plays an important role in crucial functions of the nervous system,such as the survival,differentiation,and maturation of neurons and glial cells as well as the actions of neuroprotection in adverse conditions,such as glutamatergic overstimulation,cerebral ischemia,hypoglycemia,and neurotoxicity(Kowiański et al.,2018).
