Recent studies have implicated brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the
pathophysiology of depression and the activity of antidepressant drugs. Serum BDNF levels …

Recent evidence supports 'the neurotrophin hypothesis of depression'in its prediction that
brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is involved in depression. However, some key …

BACKGROUND: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been hypothesized to be
involved in the neurobiology of major depression. The aim of this study was to assess the …

Recent studies suggested a role of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in depression.
While BDNF levels are lower in depressed patients, antidepressant treatment increases …

BACKGROUND: Several studies demonstrated that depressed patients had low serum
BDNF levels which correlated with the severity of their depression, and antidepressant …

BACKGROUND: Converging lines of evidence implicate the neurotrophin brain-derived
neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the pathophysiology of major depression. Recent studies have …

Numerous studies have demonstrated that depression is associated with a decreased
expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). BDNF shows antidepressant-like …

OBJECTIVES: The “neurotrophin hypothesis” of depression posits a role of brain-derived
neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in depression, although it is unknown whether BDNF is more …

Consistent data coming from biochemical studies have evidenced a brain-derived
neurotrophic factor (BDNF) serum reduction in depressed patients compared to controls and …

Depression, stress and antidepressant treatment have been found to modulate the
expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Recent research suggests that …
