| Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is a cytokine whose neurotrophic and differentiating effects over cells in the central nervous system
(CNS) have been clearly demonstrated. This article summarizes the general characteristics of CNTF, its receptor and the signaling pathway
that it activates and focuses on its effects over skeletal muscle, one of its major target tissues outside the central nervous system. The evidence
for the existence of other molecules that signal through the same complex as CNTF is also reviewed. | en |
