The present study investigates the expression of a tyrosine kinase receptor (trkB), its specific ligands brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) mRNAs in the striatum after seizures. The result showed an increase of trkB mRNA expression, both with and without tyrosine kinase domain, in the caudate-putamen and nucleus accumbens, but not in the globus pallidus. This increase peaked 3 h after treatment, and returned to normal levels by 12 h. The BDNF and NT-4 mRNAs showed no change at any time. In conclusion, the widespread and massive trkB mRNA induction after abnormal neuronal activity suggests local trophic support for this receptor, and a potential role in basal ganglia diseases involving non-dopaminergic components.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
