Schematic representation of different proteins involved in the cleavage of BDNF through extracellular (left panels) and intracellular (right panels) mechanisms. ProBDNF can be cleaved intracellularly within the endoplasmic reticulum by furin and in regulated secretory vesicles by proconvertase enzymes (PC1/3). ProBDNF can also be cleaved extracellularly by MMPs (−3/−7/−9) or by components of the tPA/plasmin proteolytic cascade. The activity of these proteases is tightly regulated by a number of inhibitors, including PAI-1, which inhibits both extracellular and intracellular cleavage; TIMPs, which inhibit MMPs; and neuroserpin and A2AP, which inhibit the tPA/plasmin proteolytic cascade. Red bars indicate inhibition, and green bars indicate activation.
