Purification of a new neurotrophic factor from mammalian brain.
Open accessAbstract
We report the purification from pig brain of a factor supporting the survival of, and fibre outgrowth from, cultured embryonic chick sensory neurons. The purified factor migrates as one single band, mol. wt. 12 300, on gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS) and is a basic molecule (pI greater than or equal to 10.1). Approximately 1 microgram factor was isolated from 1.5 kg brain. The final degree of purification was estimated to be 1.4 X 10(6)-fold, and the specific activity 0.4 ng/ml/unit, which is similar to that of nerve growth factor (NGF) using the same assay system. This factor is the first neurotrophic factor to be purified since NGF, from which it is clearly distinguished because it has different antigenic and functional properties.

BDNF protein is a highly conserved protein of 247 amino acids, synthesized and folded in the endoplasmic reticulum as preproBDNF (32-35 kDa).
“The BDNF protein, discovered in 1982 [66], is a highly conserved protein of 247 amino acids, synthesized and folded in the endoplasmic reticulum as preproBDNF (32–35 kDa).”
From Neurotrophic Factor BDNF, Physiological Functions and Therapeutic Potential in Depression, Neurodegeneration and Brain Cancer (2020) · cites this paper as [66]
NGF and BDNF were discovered because they support the survival of neurons and neurites during development.
“The first neurotrophic factors, nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were discovered through their ability to support the survival of neurons and neurites during development15–17; other members of the neurotrophin family, neurotrophin-3 (NT-3)18–20 and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4)21–23 were then identified through sequence similarity to NGF and BDNF.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
