Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Modulates Intestinal Barrier by Inhibiting Intestinal Epithelial Cells Apoptosis in Mice.
We aimed to investigate the effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) on apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and alterations of intestinal barrier integrity using BDNF knock-out mice model. Colonic tissues from BDNF+/+ mice and BDNF+/- mice were prepared for this study. The int...
