ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a complex comprising nerve growth factor (NGF) and trk-proto-oncogene protein. The present invention also relates to methods for detecting the presence of NGF and trk-proto-oncogene receptor. The present invention further relates to methods that can be used in diagnostics and therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's by detecting NGF-trk receptor pairs and the phosphorylation of trk protein.
