## Abstract Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) are key components of HIV/AIDS treatment to reduce viral load. However, these drugs can induce chronic neuropathic pain, leading to increased morbidity in HIV patients. This study examines the role of brainβderived neurotrophic factor
The tyrosine kinase TrkB is a receptor for the neurotrophic factors brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4). Retinal ganglion cells are responsive to BDNF, and TrkB has been localized in ganglion cells as well as in a subpopulation of amacrine cells in the retina of the ch
The expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its receptor tyrosine kinase B are both increased after global ischemia. Therefore, a protective action of BDNF against the delayed degeneration of vulnerable neurons has been suggested. We have investigated the neuroprotective action of
