Abstract
Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a potent neurotrophic factor that enhances survival of midbrain doparminergic neuron and is a member of the transforming growth factor-b superfamily. GDNF and its receptors are widely distributed in brain and are believed to be involved in the control of neuron survival, proliferation and differentiation.(omitted)
