Background Information

Glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-α family and exhibits potent neuroprotective activity. GDNF is a potent promoter of neuronal survival in the CNS and peripheral nervous system (PNS). It has a relatively high speciicity for dopaminergic neurons and thus become an efective treatment for Parkinson's diseases (PD), with clinical trials currently in progress. Protein dimers of GDNF have a reported molecular weight of 32-40 kDa(PMID: 17982417, PMID: 23251488, PMID: 11429269).
