NT-4 is essential for neuron survival and proliferation throughout ones life span so maintaining proper amounts in the body is needed to stay healthy. Knowing the cause of variance in these levels is key for prevention of certain neurological disorders.

NT-4 is essential for neuron survival and proliferation throughout ones life span so maintaining proper amounts in the body is needed to stay healthy. Neuron growth factors are currently being used as biomarkers to study the relationship between them and various mental disease states including depression, schizophrenia, autism, Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease. Knowing the cause of variance in these levels is key for prevention of certain neurological disorders.

Depletion and/or unavailable receptor binding sites are also being studied to further understand these mechanisms.

NT-4 is a homodimer; Its structure includes 2 Neurotrophin-4 factors bound with a chloride ion. This chloride ion is a ligand that binds to nerve growth factor receptors. NT-4 is 130 amino acids in length.
