The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mediates the plasticity-related changes that
associate with memory processing during sleep. Sleep deprivation and chronic stress are …

The protein brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a member of the neurotrophin family
of growth factors involved in plasticity of neurons in several brain regions. There are …

Objective Preclinical and clinical studies support a role for brain-derived neurotrophic factor
(BDNF) in the pathophysiology of stress-related mood disorders. Furthermore, BDNF seems …

In the last decade, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has become increasingly
accepted as a central mediator of the effects of stress on neuronal plasticity and its …

Slow-wave activity (SWA), the EEG power between 0.5 and 4 Hz during non-rapid eye
movement (NREM) sleep, is one of the best characterized markers of sleep need, because it …

Major depressive disorder (MDD) affects millions of people worldwide and is a leading
cause of disability. Several theories have been proposed to explain its pathological …

Abstract The Brain-Derived Neurotrofic Factor (BDNF) is one of the most important
neurotrophins in the brain and it is suggested influences the activity of the serotonergic …

Background Brain-derived neurotrophic factor is implicated in the pathophysiology of major
depressive disorder and suicide. Both are partly caused by early life adversity, which …

Accumulating evidence suggests that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is
associated with the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). In this mini review …

The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is associated with emotional and cognitive
