Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of Apoptosis by the Low-Affinity NGF Receptor
Shahrooz Rabizadeh,Justin D. Oh,Li-tao Zhong,Jie Yang,Catherine M. Bitler,Larry L. Butcher,Dale E. Bredesen +6 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that p75NGFR has some functional similarities to other members of a superfamily of receptors that include tumor necrosis factor receptors, Fas (Apo-1), and CD40, and that it may explain the dependence of some neural cells on NGF for survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural-targeted gene therapy for rodent and primate hemiparkinsonism.
Rein Anton,Jeffrey H. Kordower,Nigel T. Maidment,Jacob S. Manaster,Darci J. Kane,Shahrooz Rabizadeh,Sherry B. Schueller,Jie Yang,Shervin Rabizadeh,Robert H. Edwards,Charles H. Markham,Dale E. Bredesen +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that temperature-sensitive immortalized neural cells may be genetically engineered successfully to improve their efficacy for the treatment of parkinsonism and a change in L-DOPA production, as opposed to growth factor production or other factors, is likely to account for the observed improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increasing the proliferative capacity of muscular dystrophy myoblasts.
TL;DR: Temperature‐sensitive immortalized neural cells may be utilized to produce genetically engineered neural transplants and may be useful for the proliferation, modification, and reimplantation of autologous cells from patients with degenerative and dystrophic disorders such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
