Nerve growth factor: From neuron development to neurology offers a complete guide to nerve growth factor (NGF) across health and disease. It provides a well-rounded discussion of NGF and the key properties, latest advances, and biomedical applications of this neuropeptide. The book begins with an introduction and historical overview of the discovery of NGF before exploring its molecular characteristics. It then covers NGF in organ function, with chapters ranging across the brain, immune system, blood vessels, heart, reproductive organs, teeth and lungs. NGF pharmacology is then considered in detail, with a focus on NGF as a therapeutic agent. The final section of the book covers NGF across disease, which includes Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, diseases of the eye, chronic pain and visceral disfunctions. Throughout the book, NGF is considered in the context of both mammalian and non-mammalian biology.

Microbial tryptamine as a causative cofactor of incurable cell death diseases of unknown etiology: The cost of related healthcare in the US and worldwide investigates microbial tryptamine and its role in a range of diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, while also examining the economic burden of these conditions on healthcare systems globally. The book begins with an examination of microbial tryptamine’s significance across neurodegenerative diseases, cancers and gastrointestinal conditions. It covers the implications of tryptamine in cell and organ transplantation, as well as the roles of diet and environment in tryptamine-induced disease progression. Additionally, the latest advances in treatment and prevention are considered. It then provides a critical analysis of expenditure on diseases related to tryptamine-induced cell toxicity and neurodegeneration, alongside an evaluation of current funding and market analysis. Following this, the author delves into research-related issues that may hinder biomedical progress, such as competition, plagiarism, and retractions of funded peer-reviewed articles. Collaboration between researchers and medical doctors is also examined. The book concludes with the author’s own personal narrative and recommendations, emphasizing the need for open discussions to drive urgent changes in biomedical research funding and review processes. This book is suitable for biomedical experts and advanced students working with microbial tryptamine, as well as relevant funding agencies, aiming to spark discussion concerning the necessary reforms in funding priorities and practices related to research on microbial tryptamine and its significance for disease.
