Neurotrophin-3 Promotes Cell Death Induced in Cerebral Ischemia, Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation, and Oxidative Stress: Possible Involvement of Oxygen Free Radicals

To explore the role of neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) during cerebral ischemia, NT-3-deficient brains were subjected to transient focal ischemia. Conditional mutant brains produced undetectable amounts of NT-3 mRNA, whereas the expression of the neurotrophin, BDNF, the NT-3 receptor, TrkC, and the nonselecti...
