ELISA‐based quantification of neurotrophic growth factors in urine from prostate cancer patients

FASEB BioAdvances, 2021
Non‐invasive procedures are needed for prostate cancer management, and urine represents a potential source of new biomarkers with translational value. Recent evidence has shown that the growth of new nerves in the tumor microenvironment is essential to ...

Static Magnetic Field Stimulation Enhances Oligodendrocyte Differentiation and Secretion of Neurotrophic Factors

Scientific Reports, 2017
The cellular-level effects of low/high frequency oscillating magnetic field on excitable cells such as neurons are well established. In contrast, the effects of a homogeneous, static magnetic field (SMF) on Central Nervous System (CNS) glial cells are ...

Grafts of Fibroblasts Genetically Modified to Secrete Ngf, Bdnf, Nt-3, or Basic Fgf Elicit Differential Responses in the Adult Spinal Cord

Cell Transplantation, 1996
Neuronal and axonal responses to neurotrophic factors in the developing spinal cord have been relatively well characterized, but little is known about adult spinal responses to neurotrophic factors.

Alzheimer’s Disease: Challenges and a Therapeutic Opportunity to Treat It with a Neurotrophic Compound

Biomolecules, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with an insidious onset and multifactorial nature. A deficit in neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity are considered the early pathological features associated with neurofibrillary tau ...

Comparative Analysis of the Effects of Neurotrophic Factors CDNF and GDNF in a Nonhuman Primate Model of Parkinson’s Disease

PLoS ONE, 2016
Cerebral dopamine neurotrophic factor (CDNF) belongs to a newly discovered family of evolutionarily conserved neurotrophic factors. We demonstrate for the first time a therapeutic effect of CDNF in a unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesion model of ...

The simulation of the activity dependent neural network growth [PDF]

, 2009
It is currently accepted that cortical maps are dynamic constructions that are altered in response to external input. Experience-dependent structural changes in cortical microcurcuts lead to changes of activity, i.e. to changes in information encoded.

Photoacoustic Silk Scaffolds for Neural stimulation and Regeneration [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Neural interfaces using biocompatible scaffolds provide crucial properties for the functional repair of nerve injuries and neurodegenerative diseases, including cell adhesion, structural support, and mass transport. Neural stimulation has also been found to be effective in promoting neural regeneration.

Serum Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factors in Taiwanese Patients with Drug-Naïve First-Episode Major Depressive Disorder: Effects of Antidepressants

International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2016
Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factors are known to be related to the psychopathology of major depressive disorder. However, studies focusing on drug-naïve first-episode patients are still rare.

EFFECT OF GLYPROLINES ON THE LEVEL OF APOPTOTIC AND NEUROTROPHIC FACTORS UNDER CONDITIONS OF “SOCIAL” STRESS

Фармация и фармакология (Пятигорск), 2021
The aim of the article was to study the effect of glyproline neuropeptide compounds Thr–Lys–Pro–Arg–Pro–Gly–Pro (Selank), Pro–Gly–Pro and Pro–Gly–Pro–Leu, on the level of apoptotic factors (caspase-3, caspase-8, the tumor necrosis factor) and ...
