The Wechsler Test of Adult Reading (WTAR) is a neuropsychological assessment tool used to provide a measure of premorbid intelligence, the degree of Intellectual function prior to the onset of illness or disease. [1]
Most neurotrophic factors belong to one of three families: (1) neurotrophins, (2) glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor family ligands (GFLs), and (3) neuropoietic cytokines. [4] Each family has its own distinct cell signaling mechanisms, although the cellular responses elicited often do overlap. [4]
Neurotrophin-3, or NT-3, is a neurotrophic factor, in the NGF-family of neurotrophins. It is a protein growth factor that has activity on certain neurons of the peripheral and central nervous system ; it helps to support the survival and differentiation of existing neurons, and encourages the growth and differentiation of new neurons and synapses .
Neurotrophin-4 (NT-4), [5] also known as neurotrophin-5 (NT-5), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NTF4 gene. [6] It is a neurotrophic factor that signals predominantly through the TrkB receptor tyrosine kinase. [7] [8] NT-4 was first discovered and isolated from xenopus and viper in the year 1991 by Finn Hallbook et.al [9]
The Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking, formerly the Minnesota Tests of Creative Thinking, is a test of creativity built on J. P. Guilford's work and created by Ellis Paul Torrance, the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking originally involved simple tests of divergent thinking and other problem-solving skills, which were scored on four scales ...
The common ligands of trk receptors are neurotrophins, a family of growth factors critical to the functioning of the nervous system. [3] The binding of these molecules is highly specific. Each type of neurotrophin has different binding affinity toward its corresponding Trk receptor. The activation of Trk receptors by neurotrophin binding may ...

Recent research has suggested a number of roles for the LNGFR, including in development of the eyes and sensory neurons, [20] [21] and in repair of muscle and nerve damage in adults. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] [ 24 ] Two distinct subpopulations of Olfactory ensheathing glia have been identified [ 25 ] with high or low cell surface expression of low-affinity ...
