    trkB-Receptor Activation Contributes to the Kainate-Induced Increase in BDNF mRNA Synthesis

    1. The expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA is induced by neuronal activity through increased intracellular calcium. As BDNF also increases intracellular calcium levels through trkB acti...

    Expression of the naturally occurring truncated trkB neurotrophin receptor induces outgrowth of filopodia and processes in neuroblastoma cells

    We have investigated the effects of the truncated trkB receptor isoform T1 (trkB.T1) by transient transfection into mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells. We observed that expression of trkB.T1 leads to a striking cha...
