RESUMEN
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a neurodegenerative disorder that has critical impact on patient's life expectance and life span, and this disorder also leads to negative socioeconomic features. SCI is defined as a firm collision to the spinal cord which leads to the fracture and the dislocation of vertebrae. The current available treatment is surgery. However, it cannot fully treat SCI, and many consequences remain after the surgery. Accordingly, finding new therapeutics is critical. BDNF-TrkB signaling is a vital signaling in neuronal differentiation, survival, overgrowth, synaptic plasticity, etc. Hence, many studies evaluate its impact on various neurodegenerative disorders. There are several studies evaluating this signaling in SCI, and they show promising outcomes. It was shown that various exercises, chemical interventions, etc. had significant positive impact on SCI by affecting BDNF-TrkB signaling pathway. This study aims to accumulate and evaluate these data and inspect whether this signaling is effective or not.
