Brain derived neurotrophic factor/tropomyosin related kinase B signaling impacts diaphragm neuromuscular transmission in a novel rat chemogenetic model
The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) mediates neural control of skeletal muscle fibers. Neurotrophic signaling, specifically brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) acting through its high-affinity tropomyosin related kinase B (TrkB) receptor is known to improve neuromuscular transmission. BDNF/TrkB si...
