Nerve growth factor promotes in vitro proliferation of neural stem cells from tree shrews

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Neural stem cells promote neuronal regeneration and repair of brain tissue after injury, but have limited resources and proliferative ability in vivo.

Expression and Function of Nerve Growth Factor and Nerve Growth Factor Receptor on Cultured Keratinocytes

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1994
Keratinocytes, a key cellular component both for homeostasis and pathophysiologic processes of the skin, secrete a number of cytokines and are stimulated by several growth factors. Nerve growth factor (NGF) is synthesized in the skin and basal keratinocytes express the low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (NGF-R).

Local administration of icariin contributes to peripheral nerve regeneration and functional recovery

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Our previous study showed that systemic administration of the traditional Chinese medicine Epimedium extract promotes peripheral nerve regeneration. Here, we sought to explore the therapeutic effects of local administration of icariin, a major component ...

Enhancement of sciatic nerve regeneration with dual delivery of vascular endothelial growth factor and nerve growth factor genes

open access: yesJournal of Nanobiotechnology, 2020
Background Peripheral nerve injury is one common clinical disease worldwide, in which sciatic nerve is anatomically the most challenging to regenerate given its length and large cross-sectional area.

Effcacy and safety of nerve growth factor for the treatment of neurological diseases: a meta-analysis of 64 randomized controlled trials involving 6,297 patients

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
OBJECTIVE: China is the only country where nerve growth factor is approved for large-scale use as a clinical medicine. More than 10 years ago, in 2003, nerve growth factor injection was listed as a national drug.

Targeting the Nerve Growth Factor Signaling Impairs the Proliferative and Migratory Phenotype of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Triple-negative breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that still lacks specific therapeutic approaches. The identification of new biomarkers, predictive of the disease’s aggressiveness and pharmacological response, is a challenge for a more tailored ...

Exogenous nerve growth factor protects the hypoglossal nerve against crush injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
Studies have shown that sensory nerve damage can activate the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, but whether the same type of nerve injury after exercise activates the p38MAPK pathway remains unclear.

Nerve growth factors.

open access: yesNihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1992
神経成長因子(nerve growth factor; NGF)は,知覚神経二ューロン,交感神経ニューロン,中枢の一部のコリン系ニューロンの分化・成熟を促し,生存・機能を維持し,突起伸展を引き起こす,分子量約26000の蛋白質である. NGFは,神経科学,発生学の分野において最も古くから実体の明らかにされていた分子のひとつで, NGFの研究で得られた膨大な知見から神経回路の形成過程や調節機構の概要が窺い知ることができるようになった.最近では, NGFを投与すると,末梢神経の軸索再生が促進されること,遅発性ニューロン死が抑制されること,老化による学習記憶能力低下が抑制されること,などが報告され,臨床応用への期待も高まってきている.

Transforming growth factor-β stimulates nerve growth factor production in osteoarthritic synovium

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Nerve growth factor (NGF) contributes to pain in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) stimulates NGF expression in chondrocytes from KOA patients.
