The Role of BDNF in Peripheral Nerve Regeneration: Activity-Dependent Treatments and Val66Met
Despite the ability of peripheral nerves to spontaneously regenerate after injury, recovery is generally very poor. The neurotrophins have emerged as an important modulator of axon regeneration, particularly brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). BDNF regulation and signaling, as well as its role...
