Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a growth factor derived from the brain that binds to TrkB receptors, regulating neuronal growth, survival, and synaptic function. PG-003, an alternative peptide to BDNF, is a chemically-synthesized homodimeric cyclic peptide with specific binding ability against the TrkB receptor.
Upon binding, PG-003 induces dimerization of the TrkB receptor, triggering subsequent signaling events in cells as a TrkB agonist. It should be noted that PG-003 is believed to have no binding or agonistic activity towards the p75 receptor, which is a low-affinity nerve growth...
