BDNF and retinal degeneration: Resveratrol has neuroprotective effects through suppressing apoptosis-related molecule activator protein 1 (AP-1) [75] and elevating neuroprotective factors such as leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), oncostatin M (OSM), cardiotrophin 1 (CT-1), and cardiotrophin-like cytokine (CLC) [76] in light-induced retinal degeneration mouse models.
