The BDNF/TrkB system has been implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia (Autry and Monteggia, 2012), depression (Autry and Monteggia, 2012), and PTSD (Grassi-Oliveira et al., 2008; Angelucci et al., 2014; Dretsch et al., 2016). Here, BDNF is linked to schizophrenia.
