Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has been shown to exert neurotrophic effects on motor neurons as well as mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons. Because GDNF promotes survival of motor neurons in vivo and in vitro and rescues motor neurons from naturally occurring cell death, the pote
## Abstract Glial cell lineβderived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent neurotrophic factor for the substantia nigra (SN) dopamine (DA) neurons. The transmembrane signaling of GDNF is mediated by a unique receptor system, including the ligand binding receptor GDNF family receptor Ξ± (GFRΞ±) and th
## Abstract The physiological roles of glial cell lineβderived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) expressed in the microglia/macrophages of the injured spinal cord have not yet been clarified. mRNA expression of chemokines, including monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)β1, was evoked within 1 hr after tr
## Abstract ## Aims: Glial cellβline derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and related factors neurturin (NRTN), artemin, and persephin are members of the GDNF family of neurotrophic factors. GDNF and NRTN bind to the tyrosine kinase receptor Ret and the receptors GFRΞ±1 and GFRΞ±2. The objective was t
