Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of chronic olanzapine treatment on nerve growth factor and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in the rat brain.
TL;DR: A heuristic hypothesis is that olanzapine's clinical effects and a favorable side effect profile are in part mediated by neurotrophins.
Journal Article

Giuseppe Bersani,Angela Iannitelli,Paolo Maselli,Paolo Pancheri,L. Aloe,Francesco Angelucci,E. Alleva +6 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Data and hypotheses on the role of nerve growth factor and other neurotrophins in psychiatric disorders.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that NGF is implicated in neurobehavioral response including cerebral alterations associated with psychiatric disorders and ongoing and emerging data are presented and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies in animal models and humans suggesting a role of nerve growth factor in schizophrenia-like disorders.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that neurotrophins of the NGF family can be implicated in some maldevelopmental aspects of schizophrenia is supported by findings indicating that the constitutive levels of NGF and BDNF are affected in schizophrenic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Haloperidol Administration in Humans Lowers Plasma Nerve Growth Factor Level: Evidence that Sedation Induces Opposite Effects to Arousal
Luigi Aloe,Angela Iannitelli,Giuseppe Bersani,Enrico Alleva,Francesco Angelucci,Paolo Maselli,Luigi Manni +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that HA reduced the basal NGF plasma levels in 8 neuroleptic-free schizophrenic patients, strengthening the hypothesis that NGF may play a functional role in stress-coping responses.
