Adult rat retinal ganglion cells (RGC) undergo degeneration after optic nerve transection. Studies have shown that exogenously applied neurotrophic factors such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) can attenuate axotomy-induced as well as developmental RGC death. Here, we examined whether gli
We used compartmented cultures into NGF plus NT3 compartments, while the combinato study the regulation of adult sensory neurite growth tion of BDNF plus NGF resulted in an inhibition of by neurotrophins. We examined the effects of the neuneurite extension compared with NGF alone. We then rotrophins
## Abstract A growing body of recent evidence indicates that ATP plays an important role in neuronalβglial communications. In this study, the authors demonstrated that extracellular ATP elicits the gene expression of brainβderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), especially __BDNF__ exon IV mRNA, in pri
