Target data

Function

The protein expressed by the BDNF gene is a critical signaling molecule that activates pathways downstream of NTRK2, as well as the heterodimeric receptor formed by NGFR and SORCS2. During development, it aids the survival and differentiation of specific neuronal populations in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. It is involved in axonal growth, pathfinding, and modulation of dendritic growth and morphology. In adult synapses, BDNF is a key regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity in various CNS regions, contributing to processes like long-term potentiation, long-term depression, some short-term synaptic plasticity forms, and the homeostatic regulation of intrinsic neuronal excitability. Signaling through NGFR and SORCS2 is linked to synaptic plasticity and long-term depression, while its binding to these receptors also promotes neuronal apoptosis.
