Abstract

The present data support the concept of an involvement of neurotrophins in cortical plasticity. However, our observations suggest for both neurotrophins, NGF and BDNF, a more complex role in the developing neocortex than serving simply as the substrate of an activity dependent competition process within the visual cortex. Moreover, the outcome of our study indicaties strong differences between BDNF and NGF concerning their involvement and locus of action in developmental plasticity.
