脑源性神经营养因子

脑源性神经营养因子（brain-derived neurotrophic factor，BDNF，abrineurin）是人脑中的一种蛋白质，由脑源性神经营养因子基因生成。脑源性神经营养因子是神经营养因子中的一种，这种因子存在于人的神经系统中。

BDNF是大腦中含量最豐富的蛋白質，在腦部可以促進神經元 (神經細胞) 的生長，也促進大腦神經細胞突觸的成形。簡單來說，就是大腦非常需要的營養蛋白質。 研究顯示，在大腦中掌管記憶的海馬迴中含有特別豐富的 BDNF ，對於突觸的生長以及長期記憶也非常重要。已經有許多國際研究顯示，缺乏 BDNF 將可能造成一些認知障礙，例如阿茲海默症，此為常見的退化性失智症之一。

另外，若長期處於壓力大或憂鬱的狀態，也可能會抑制大腦 BDNF 的分泌，影響記憶及認知功能，甚至於導致自律神經失調或海馬迴萎縮等更嚴重的問題。
