Ninjinyoeito reduces β‐amyloid25–35‐induced axon damage via nerve growth factor

ConclusionWe propose a new model of neurodegeneration in which dendrite and axon outgrowth in autaptic neuronal cultures is inhibited by A β25 –35. Our results indicate that NYT protects against A β25 –35-induced neuronal injury through induction of nerve growth factor expression. These findings provide a mechanistic basis for treating AD with NYT.
