NGF, TrkA-P and neuroprotection after a hypoxic event in the developing central nervous system [PDF]
, 2018 A decrease in the concentration of oxygen in the blood and tissues (hypoxia) produces important, sometimes irreversible, damages in the central nervous system (CNS) both during development and also postnatally.

Neurotrophins and hyperalgesia [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 Nerve growth factor (NGF), a member of the neurotrophin family, is crucial for survival of nociceptive neurons during development. Recently, it has been shown to play an important role in nociceptive function in adults. NGF is up-regulated after inflammatory injury of the skin.

Neuroplasticity and depression
Psychiatry and Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2021 The monoamine hypothesis claims that depression is a result of deficiency of serotonin and/or noradrenaline in the neuronal synapses of the central nervous system.

Inducers of epithelial mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cells in malignant pleural effusions [PDF]
, 2016 The Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) plays a role not only in tumor metastasis but also in tumor recurrence. This process is believed to be tightly linked to the presence of Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) however, it is still not clear which ...

Transactivation of TrkB Receptors by Oxytocin and Its G Protein-Coupled Receptor
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022 Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) binds to the TrkB tyrosine kinase receptor, which dictates the sensitivity of neurons to BDNF. A unique feature of TrkB is the ability to be activated by small molecules in a process called transactivation.

Preclinical Models: Boosting Synergies for Improved Translation [PDF]
, 2020 The field of preclinical models is a very vast arena, in which finding connections among groups acting in apparently very distant research areas can sometimes prove challenging [...

Activation of Trk neurotrophin receptors in the absence of neurotrophins [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 Neurotrophins regulate neuronal cell survival and synaptic plasticity through activation of Trk receptor tyrosine kinases. Binding of neurotrophins to Trk receptors results in receptor autophosphorylation and downstream phosphorylation cascades.

The pharmacological perturbation of brain zinc impairs BDNF-related signaling and the cognitive performances of young mice. [PDF]
, 2018 Zinc (Zn2+) is a pleiotropic modulator of the neuronal and brain activity. The disruption of intraneuronal Zn2+ levels triggers neurotoxic processes and affects neuronal functioning.

The gut-brain axis, BDNF, NMDA and CNS disorders [PDF]
, 2016 Gastro-intestinal (GI) microbiota and the ‘gut-brain axis’ are proving to be increasingly relevant to early brain development and the emergence of psychiatric disorders.

Biomedicines, 2022 Neurotrophins are growth factors that exert important neuroprotective effects by preventing neuronal death and synaptic loss. Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) acts through the activation of its high-affinity, pro-survival TrkA and low-affinity, pro-apoptotic ...
