Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) Acts Primarily via the JAK/STAT Pathway to Promote Neurite Growth in the Major Pelvic Ganglion of the Rat: Part 2

In rat MPG, TrkB and TrkC were expressed in neurons, whereas p75 in SGC. Optimal BDNF dosage for promoting MPG neurite growth was between 25 and 50 ng/mL. BDNF promotes MPG neurite growth primarily by activating the JAK/STAT pathway. Lin G, Bella AJ, Lue TF, and Lin C‐S.
