Effect of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on dendritic growth in neurons. Neurotrophic factors are proteins that provide for growth and protection of nerve cells. Dendrites are the branched projections of a neuron that act to conduct the electrical stimulation received from other neural cells to the cell body of the neuron. Studies have shown dendrite loss in individuals with depression. | |
