FGF2 and Alzheimer disease: On quantitative real time PCR analysis for Nestin, NF, TUJ1 and MAP2, it was found that fold change in the expression of these genes was much higher in induced DP-MSC (18.2 ± 0.434, 14.45 ± 0.328, 11.53 ± 0.96 and 15.38 ± 0.35 change folds with FGF2 and 15.2 ± 0.1906, 36.04 ± 0.4385, 36.71 ± 0.9258 and 34.82 ± 0.495 change folds with both FGF2 and BDNF, respectively) than that observed in case of induced BM-MSC or AD-MSC (Fig. 3i and ii).
