Abstract

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its precursor proBDNF contribute to brain plasticity and neuronal remodeling. Recently, the ratio between proBDNF and BDNF (RpB) has been proposed as a possible marker in major psychiatric disorders. Convergent lines of evidence suggest neurotrophins alterations could be involved into the pathophysiology of Cocaine Use Disorder (CUD) and insomnia. The aims of the present study are to evaluate the correlations between neurotrophins levels, insomnia and clinical features among CUD patients.
