Annotation. Acute disorder of cerebral circulation (ADCC) occupies leading positions in mortality and disability in Ukraine, despite new treatments and modern medical care. Current data suggest that the problem of treatment and rehabilitation of patients after ADCC can be solved with the help of neurotrophins – a family of proteins that regulate the processes of plasticity in the brain. Due to the similarity of their structure, they are able to act as a holistic system, helping to repair damaged areas of the brain. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to collect information on the structure and function of neurotrophins BDNF, NGF, NT-3 and NT-4, their role in neuroplasticity after stroke in order to develop modern methods of influencing them for further implementation in practice. For this purpose, 50 sources from the main databases (Elsevier, Pubmed, Web of Science, Google Scholar) were used. The systematic review describes the structure of neurotrophins and their function, mechanisms of neuroplasticity and methods of influencing it, in particular exercise and diet. Since these methods have a general therapeutic effect and require a long time for its onset, the prospects for further development are the creation of drugs targeted to the neurotrophin system for effective rehabilitation of patients after stroke.
