Administration of FGF-1 through transfected cells alleviates MPTP toxicity in mice.

R N McLay1, S M Freeman, J E Zadina.   

Abstract

The use of genetically modified cells to deliver growth factors has been proposed as a possible treatment for neurodegeneration, including Parkinson's disease. Here we demonstrate that the implantation of fibroblasts genetically modified to secrete fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF) increased striatal dopamine concentrations in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-treated mouse model of Parkinson's disease.
