Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) belongs to the neurotrophin family and has been shown to be a potent and effective trophic factor for motor neurons and other neurons of the peripheral and central nervous. Little is known, however, about the relationship between the efficacy and pharmacokinetics of s.c. administered BDNF. In this study, the efficacy of BDNF on motor neuron protection in sciatic or facial nerve axotomy models was examined and compared with the concommitant concentrations of BDNF in plasma. Delayed treatment (started at I week after surgery) of BDNF was also shown to retard choline acetyltransferase reduction in sciatic nerve axotomy models.
