BDNF genotype interacts with motor-function to influence rehabilitation responsiveness post-stroke

BDNF genotype interacts with motor-function to influence rehabilitation responsiveness post-stroke

Background. Persistent motor impairment is common but highly heterogeneous post-stroke. Genetic polymorphisms, including those identified on the brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) genes, may contribute to this variability by limiting the capacity for use-dependent n...
