We explore the routes of administration, how the invasive intracranial administration is the challenge, and different ways to deliver the therapeutic proteins, for example, gene therapy and protein therapy. This therapy concept has been developed to mostly work on the restoration of the lost nigrostriatal dopaminergic neuronal connectivity in the brain. However, in recent years, the center of attention of neurotrophic factors has been on maintaining proteostasis and dissolving and preventing protein inclusions called Lewy bodies. We describe the most studied neurotrophic factor families and compare different preclinical experiments that have been carried out. We also analyze several clinical trials and describe their challenges and breakthroughs and discuss the prospects and challenges of neurotrophic support as a therapy for neurodegenerative diseases.

Broadly speaking, I argue that early in their development, the justification of risk in trials of gene and cell therapies derives from the social and scientific value of a trial and not the therapeutic value for trial participation. This generates strong imperatives to justify, design, and report trials appropriately and select patient populations that incur the least burden and opportunity cost for trial participation.

In its classic form, AGS has very characteristic clinical and neuroimaging features which will be discussed here. LCC is a purely neurologic disorder caused by mutations in the SNORD118 gene, whereas CP is a multisystem disorder of telomere function that may result from mutations in the CTC1, POT1, or STN genes. In spite of the different pathogenetic basis for LCC and CP, they share remarkably similar neuroimaging and neuropathologic features.
