Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) was first discovered as a potent survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons and was then shown to rescue these neurons in animal models of Parkinson's disease. GDNF is a more potent survival factor for dopaminergic neurons and the noradrenerg
## Abstract Much attention has been paid to the ability of glial cell lineβderived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to protect neurons from neurotoxic insults in the central nervous system (CNS). However, little is known about GDNF action on CNS glia that also can express GDNF receptor systems. In this s
The c-ret protooncogene, RET, encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase. RET is activated by members of the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) family of ligands, which include GDNF, neurturin, artemin, and persephin. The ligands bind RET through GDNF family receptor alpha, termed GFRalpha1-
## Abstract To understand the characteristics of tsAM5D cells immortalized with the temperatureβsensitive simian virus 40 large Tβantigen, we first examined the responsiveness of the cells to ligands of the glial cell lineβderived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) family. tsAM5D cells proliferated at the
