Cytokines regulate nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis during inflammatory processes. Since cytokmes are also involved in the inflammatory processes of autoimmune rheumatic diseases, we examined levels of NGF in patients with rheumatoid or other types of chronic arthritis. NGF was present in the syn

Neurotrophins, including nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), are critical for the maintenance and plasticity of central nervous system (CNS) neurons. We tested the hypothesis that cortical neurons participate in redundant autocrine/paracrin
## Abstract In the present study, we investigated the serum BDNF levels and plasma ILβ6 levels in patients with dysthymic disorder, major depressive disorder and control subjects. Eighteen patients who met the DSMβIV criteria (American Psychiatric Association, 1994) for dysthymic disorder (male/fem
