To test this hypothesis and provide a mechanistic basis to the HSAN V phenotype, we generated transgenic mice harboring the human 661C>T mutation in the <i>Ngf</i> gene and studied both males and females.
The physiological function of NGF as a pain mediator is altered in patients with Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy type V (HSAN V), caused by the 661C>T transition in the <i>Ngf</i> gene, resulting in the R100W missense mutation in mature NGF.
Recently, a missense point mutation was found in the NGFB gene (C661T, leading to the aminoacid substitution R100W) of individuals affected by a form of hereditary loss of pain perception (hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type V, HSAN V).
We report first evidence that children with one or more copies of the T allele of NGF rs6330 were significantly more likely to be free of their primary anxiety diagnosis at follow-up (OR = 0.60 (0.42-0.85), P = 0.005).

The self-ratable State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, which enables anxiety to be quantified as a comparatively stable personality trait was applied and a recently described non-synonymous NGF SNP (rs6330,c.104C > T,p.Ala35Val) was examined.

In addition, gene-gene interaction analysis revealed a significant epistatic interaction between MAPK (rs889312) and NGF (rs11102930) variants in asthma susceptibility.
In the present study, we evaluated the association of the functional polymorphisms in NGF (rs6330) and NGFR (rs2072446 and rs734194) genes with ischemic stroke in an Armenian population.
The results obtained indicate that the minor allele of rs6330 (P <sub>corr</sub> = 2.4E-10) and rs2072446 (P <sub>corr</sub> = 0.02) are significantly overrepresented in stroke group, while the minor allele of rs734194 (P <sub>corr</sub> = 8.5E-10) was underrepresented in diseased subjects.
In family-based analysis, one single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; rs1143629, interleukin ( IL1B) 1β) was associated with observed child distress at Bonferroni-corrected levels of significance ( p = .00013), while two approached significance for association with high state anxiety (rs6330 Nerve Growth Factor, Beta Subunit, [ NGFB]) and high trait anxiety (rs6265 brain-derived neurotrophic factor [ BDNF]).

None of the other following polymorphisms was observed to be a potential risk factor of CKD in T2DM and DF population: rs6330, rs759853, rs1553005, rs1799983, rs1801133, rs1800469, rs8192678, rs11466112, rs121917832.
