Thus, the concomitant reduction of TrkA and accumulation of proNGF in the cortex may be an early pathobiological marker for the onset of AD (Figure 1A). In fact, significantly increased cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of NGF are detectable in AD [65], demonstrating the potential utility of NGF as a diagnostic biomarker.
