Expression:
P23560 BDNF_HUMAN:

Detected in blood plasma and in saliva (at protein level) (PubMed:11152678, PubMed:19467646). Brain. Highly expressed in hippocampus, amygdala, cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Also expressed in heart, lung, skeletal muscle, testis, prostate and placenta.

Description:
Neurotrophins function to regulate naturally occurring cell death of neurons during development. The prototype neurotrophin is nerve growth factor (NGF), originally discovered in the 1950s as a soluble peptide promoting the survival of, and neurite outgrowth from, sympathetic ganglia. Three additional structurally homologous neurotrophic factors have been identified. These include brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) (also designated NT-5). These various neurotrophins stimulate the in vitro survival of distinct, but partially overlapping, populations of neurons. The cell surface receptors through which neurotrophins mediate their activity have been identified. For instance, the Trk A receptor is the preferential receptor for NGF, but also binds NT-3 and NT-4. The Trk B receptor binds both BDNF and NT-4 equally well, and binds NT-3 to a lesser extent, while the Trk C receptor only binds NT-3.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Important signaling molecule that activates signaling cascades downstream of NTRK2. During development, promotes the survival and differentiation of selected neuronal populations of the peripheral and central nervous systems. Participates in axonal growth, pathfinding and in the modulation of dendritic growth and morphology. Major regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity at adult synapses in many regions of the CNS. The versatility of BDNF is emphasized by its contribution to a range of adaptive neuronal responses including long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), certain forms of short-term synaptic plasticity, as well as homeostatic regulation of intrinsic neuronal excitability.

Important signaling molecule that activates signaling cascades downstream of NTRK2. Activates signaling cascades via the heterodimeric receptor formed by NGFR and SORCS2. Signaling via NGFR and SORCS2 plays a role in synaptic plasticity and long-term depression (LTD). Binding to NGFR and SORCS2 promotes neuronal apoptosis. Promotes neuronal growth cone collapse (By similarity).

PTMs:

N-glycosylated and glycosulfated, contrary to mature BDNF.

Mature BDNF is produced by proteolytic removal of the propeptide, catalyzed by a FURIN family member. In addition, the precursor form is proteolytically cleaved within the propeptide, but this is not an obligatory intermediate for the production of mature BDNF. Can be converted into mature BDNF by plasmin (PLG).

Subcellular Location:

Secreted.

Secreted.
Note: A proportion of BDNF is secreted as immature precursor (proBDNF).

Tissue Specificity:

Detected in blood plasma and in saliva (at protein level). Brain. Highly expressed in hippocampus, amygdala, cerebral cortex and cerebellum. Also expressed in heart, lung, skeletal muscle, testis, prostate and placenta.

Subunit Structure:

Monomers and homodimers. Binds to NTRK2/TRKB. Can form heterodimers with other neurotrophin family members, such as NTF3 and NTF4 (in vitro), but the physiological relevance of this is not clear. BDNF precursor form: interacts with the heterodimer formed by NGFR and SORCS2.

Family&Domains:

Belongs to the NGF-beta family.

Application: WB    Species: mice    Sample: corneal epithelial cells

Figure 3—Exogenous MANF promoted corneal nerve regeneration and BDNF and NGF expression. Normal and diabetic corneas pretreated through subconjunctival injection with PBS (as the control) or rhMANF 24 h before, 0 h, and 24 h after removal of the corneal epithelium. At 48 h, corneal epithelial cells were collected for Western blotting. At 5 days postwounding, corneal whole-mount staining was performed to observe nerve regeneration. Corneal sensation was tested before epithelium debridement until 7 days postwounding. To observe nerve regeneration and corneal sensation, another injection was performed at 48 h postwounding. A: Staining for b-tubulin III was performed, and images of the entire cornea were captured as shown in the top panels, with central cornea images shown in the bottom panels. B: Nerve densities of entire corneas (A, top panels) were calculated from the areas staining positive for b-tubulin III using Image J software (n 5 3). C: Corneal sensation is represented with a line chart (n 5 5). The time immediately before epithelium debridement was defined as 0 h. D: Western blot bands observed with or without rhMANF. Two samples/lane represent each condition, three corneas as one sample. E: Western blot analysis of BDNF expression (n 5 4 samples).
