Unveiling paracrine dissemination and toxicity of neuronal TrkB-ICD via secretome signalling in Alzheimer’s disease

The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophin that binds to the TrkB full-length receptor (TrkB-FL), triggering cascades responsible for neuroprotection. This BDNF/TrkB-FL system is known to be impaired in Alzheimer’s disease (AD)due to an amyloid-β-mediated TrkB-FL cleavage, leadin...
