cellular response to brain-derived neurotrophic factor stimulus

Definition

Target type: biologicalprocess

A process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a brain-derived neurotrophic factor stimulus. [PMID:21958434]

Cellular response to brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) stimulus is a complex and multifaceted process that plays a crucial role in neuronal survival, growth, and plasticity. BDNF, a neurotrophic factor, binds to its receptors, TrkB and p75NTR, on the surface of neurons, triggering a cascade of intracellular signaling pathways that ultimately lead to changes in gene expression, protein synthesis, and neuronal function.

Upon BDNF binding to TrkB, the receptor undergoes dimerization and autophosphorylation, activating its intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. This phosphorylation event initiates a signaling cascade involving several downstream signaling molecules, including:

- **Phospholipase C-γ (PLC-γ):** Activated TrkB phosphorylates PLC-γ, leading to the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) into diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3). DAG activates protein kinase C (PKC), while IP3 triggers the release of calcium from intracellular stores.

- **Ras/MAPK pathway:** TrkB activates the Ras/MAPK pathway, leading to the phosphorylation and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as ERK1/2. Activated MAPKs translocate to the nucleus, where they phosphorylate transcription factors, including CREB, ultimately leading to changes in gene expression.

- **PI3K/Akt pathway:** TrkB also activates the PI3K/Akt pathway, leading to the phosphorylation and activation of Akt kinase. Akt promotes cell survival, growth, and protein synthesis by inhibiting pro-apoptotic proteins and activating downstream targets involved in these processes.

- **PLCγ/Ca2+ signaling:** BDNF also triggers calcium influx through voltage-gated calcium channels, further enhancing calcium signaling. Increased calcium levels activate calcium-dependent kinases, such as calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), which contribute to downstream signaling pathways.

These signaling pathways converge to regulate gene expression, protein synthesis, and neuronal function. BDNF-induced changes in gene expression include the upregulation of genes involved in neuronal survival, growth, synapse formation, and plasticity. These changes contribute to the following effects:

- **Neuroprotection:** BDNF promotes neuronal survival by inhibiting apoptosis and enhancing the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins.
- **Neurotrophic support:** BDNF supports neuronal growth and development by promoting axonal and dendritic outgrowth.
- **Synaptic plasticity:** BDNF enhances synaptic plasticity, the ability of synapses to strengthen or weaken in response to activity, contributing to learning and memory.
- **Neurogenesis:** BDNF promotes the generation of new neurons in specific brain regions.

Overall, the cellular response to BDNF stimulus is a complex and precisely regulated process that plays a critical role in neuronal function, survival, and plasticity. Disruptions in BDNF signaling are implicated in various neurological disorders, highlighting the importance of this pathway in maintaining brain health.'
