Breaking boundaries in neural-immune interactions.

abstract：:In recent years, nerve growth factor (NGF) has gained attention as a potential therapeutic agent for Alzheimer's disease (AD). To study the expression of NGF and its homologs, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin 3 (NT-3), postmortem samples of hippocampus from AD and control donors were examined ...
