NGF and P75NTR gene expression is associated with the hepatic fibrosis stage due to viral and non-viral causes.

NGF and P75NTR gene expression is associated with the hepatic fibrosis stage due to viral and non-viral causes.

This study evaluated the relative mRNA expression levels of nerve growth factor (NGF) and the p75 neurothrophin receptor (p75NTR) in different histological stages of human liver disease. Fifty-one liver biopsy specimens obtained from patients with hepatitis B virus (n = 6), hepatitis C virus (n = 28...
