Altered Balance of Proteolytic Isoforms of Pro–Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in Autism

ABSTRACTDefects in synaptic development and plasticity may lead to autism. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a critical role in synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity. BDNF is synthesized as a precursor, pro-BDNF, which can be processed into either a truncated form or into mature BDNF....
