Neurotrophin‐3 receptors in the developing chicken retina [PDF]
Neurotrophin 3 (NT‐3) had specific high‐affinity receptors (HNT‐3R) in the developing chick retina at all ages between embryonic day (E) 4 and E14. The affinity of HNT‐3R for 125I‐NT‐3 did not change with the developmental state. A dissociation constant (kd) of 13 pM was obtained.

Serum neurotrophin-3 and neurotrophin-4 levels are associated with asthma severity in children [PDF]
To the Editors: Asthma is the most common chronic disease in childhood and is characterised by chronic airway inflammation, reversible airflow obstruction and hyperresponsiveness of the airways. Among the substantial pathophysiological aspects of asthma are neuroimmune interaction mechanisms; neurotrophins are mediators of the interactions providing ...

Production and characterization of recombinant mouse neurotrophin‐3 [PDF]
Neurotrophin‐3 (NT‐3) is a neurotrophic factor that has recently been cloned on the basis of its structural similarity to other members of the nerve growth factor (NGF) gene family. In order to produce this protein, a recombinant vaccinia virus containing the coding region for mouse NT‐3 was constructed. Conditioned medium harvested from cells infected

Crystallization and preliminary structural studies of neurotrophin‐3 [PDF]
AbstractNeurotrophin‐3 (NT‐3) has been crystallized in 2 forms. Orthorhombic crystals, space group P21212, diffracted to 2.8 Å and have cell dimensions a = 39.1 Å, b = 54.0 Å, and c = 65.5 Å. The second form is space group P43212, with cell dimensions a = b = 67.1 Å, and c = 107.9 Å. The tetragonal crystals diffract to 2.8 Å at room temperature and 2.5

The Neurotrophin Receptor p75 Binds Neurotrophin-3 on Sympathetic Neurons with High Affinity and Specificity [PDF]
High-affinity neurotrophin-3 (NT3) receptors have been identified on nerve growth factor (NGF)-dependent sympathetic neurons, but their occupancy by NT3 does not lead to neuronal survival. The molecular nature of these NT3 binding sites was investigated in this study.
