Neurotrophins and Neurotrophin Receptors in Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

PLoS ONE, 2013
Neurotrophins (NTs) are emerging as important mediators of angiogenesis and fibrosis. We investigated the expression of the NTs nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) and their receptors TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).

Disrupting CSPG‐Driven Microglia–Astrocyte Crosstalk Enables Scar‐Free Repair in Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies CSPGs as key drivers of glial scar maturation after spinal cord injury by reprogramming microglial metabolism and inducing astrocyte fibrosis. To address this, a reactive oxygen species‐responsive, reactive astrocyte‐targeted ChABC gene delivery system is designed to locally degrade CSPGs, precisely disrupt maladaptive glial ...

Crossing the Blood–Brain Barrier with Molecularly Imprinted Polymeric Nanocarriers: An Emerging Frontier in Brain Disease Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Molecularly imprinted polymeric nanocarriers (nanoMIPs) offer robust, antibody‐mimetic platforms to overcome the blood‐brain barrier. The article surveys nanoMIP design and ligand‐directed surface engineering that harness receptor‐mediated transcytosis, and highlights therapeutic and diagnostic applications in neurodegeneration, brain tumors and ...

Neuroprotection: Pro-survival and Anti-neurotoxic Mechanisms as Therapeutic Strategies in Neurodegeneration

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Neurotrophins (NTs) are a subset of the neurotrophic factor family. These growth factors were originally named based on the nerve growth functional assays used to identify them. NTs act as paracrine or autocrine factors for cells expressing NT receptors.

Plasma Levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and S100B in Relation to Antidepressant Response to Ketamine

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
BackgroundEvidence demonstrates that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B) have a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and they are proposed as predictors of antidepressant ...

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.

Cidea Targeting Protects Cochlear Hair Cells and Hearing Function From Drug‐ and Noise‐Induced Damage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Acquired sensorineural hearing loss is primarily caused by the damage or loss of cochlear hair cells, induced by factors such as noise exposure and ototoxic drugs. The deficiency of apoptosis‐inducing gene Cidea in Cidea KO mice or by delivering CRISPR/SlugCas9‐HF via AAV to edit Cidea effectively alleviated hair cell damage and hearing loss caused by ...
