Disease relevance of Ngfb

  • In C6-2B astrocytoma cells the Beta NGF content and secretion rate are increased by isoproterenol activation of beta-adrenergic receptors (Schwartz and Costa, 1977) [1].
 

High impact information on Ngfb

  • These results are consistent with the hypothesis that regulation of Beta NGF synthesis in neuroglial cells may be modulated by beta-adrenergic receptor activation [1].
  • Furthermore, addition of dibutyryl-cAMP induces an increase of Beta NGF mRNA content similar to that obtained with isoproterenol [1].
  • Developmental profiles of growth-associated protein (Gap43), Ngfb, Bndf and Ntf4 mRNA levels in the rat forebrain after exposure to 60 Hz magnetic fields [2].
