Abstract

Background: Neural plasticity depends not only on the abundance of neurotrophic factors but also on their molecular processing, receptor preference, cellular localization, and temporal pattern of release. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) represents a particularly important example because its precursor, proBDNF, and mature form can engage distinct receptor systems and promote functionally
