Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The cross-talk between NGF and insulin pathways downstream the insulin receptor suggests novel potential therapeutic targets to slow cognitive decline in AD and diabetes-related brain insulin resistance. 29736736 2019
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The NGF pathway may also have potential as a biomarker of cognitive decline in AD, as its changes can predict future cognitive decline in patients with Down syndrome as they develop preclinical Alzheimer's pathology. 30809111 2019
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE To determine whether stereotactically guided intracerebral injections of adeno-associated viral vector (serotype 2)-nerve growth factor (AAV2-NGF) are well tolerated and exhibit preliminary evidence of impact on cognitive decline in mild to moderate AD-associated dementia. 29582053 2018
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE According to much research, neurodegeneration and cognitive decline in Alzheimer disease (AD) are correlated with alternations of neurotrophic factors such as nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor. 29114922 2018
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Dysfunction of nerve growth factor (NGF) and its high-affinity Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) receptor has been suggested to contribute to the selective degeneration of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons (BFCN) associated with the progressive cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). 28632177 2017
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE To test whether encapsulation of this cell line provides a relevant dose escalation step in delivering NGF for treatment of the cognitive decline in AD patients, we have validated the bioactivity of devices with NGC0211 and NGC-0295 cells in normal rat striatum as well as in the quinolinic acid striatal lesion model. 22113314 2012
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The therapeutic potential of using human NGF to provide a long-lasting cholinergic trophic support, thereby preventing or slowing cognitive decline in AD patients, has therefore a strong rationale. 19355851 2009
Entrez Id: 4803
Gene Symbol: NGF
NGF
0.080 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE A NGF gene therapy trial reduced cognitive decline and stimulated cholinergic fiber growth in humans with mild AD. 18986241 2008
