PET before and after the treatment with hr-NGF. a, b: Brain 18F-FDG PET axial slices performed before (a) and after b intranasal hr-NGF treatment. A mild global reduction in 18F-FDG uptake was observed in all cortical regions, whereas a more marked reduction was detected in all subcortical regions (a). After hr-NGF administration, an increase in radiotracer uptake was found in the bilateral temporal cortex (right: + 7%; left: + 7%), right and left thalamus (+ 6% and + 4%, respectively) and the left caudate nucleus (+ 9%) (b)
