A novel anti-NGF PEGylated Fab’ provides analgesia with lower risk of adverse effects
Nerve growth factor (NGF) has emerged as a key driver of pain perception in several chronic pain conditions, including osteoarthritis (OA), and plays an important role in the generation and survival of neurons.

Cdk5 activation promotes Cos-7 cells transition towards neuronal-like cells
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) activity is specifically active in neurogenesis, and Cdk5 and neocortical neurons migration related biomarker are expressed in Cos-7 cells.

The strategic uses of collagen in adherent cell cultures
Abstract The culture of adherent mammalian cells involves adhesion to the tissue culture vessel. This requires attachment factors from serum and/or a suitable substrate on the vessel surface. Some cells require collagen or other substrates to promote neurite outgrowth, differentiation or growth.

One at a time, live tracking of NGF axonal transport using quantum dots [PDF]
Retrograde axonal transport of nerve growth factor (NGF) signals is critical for the survival, differentiation, and maintenance of peripheral sympathetic and sensory neurons and basal forebrain cholinergic neurons.

A method to investigate muscle target‐specific transcriptional signatures of single motor neurons
Abstract Background Motor neurons in the vertebrate spinal cord have long served as a paradigm to study the transcriptional logic of cell type specification and differentiation. At limb levels, pool‐specific transcriptional signatures first restrict innervation to only one particular muscle in the periphery, and get refined, once muscle connection has ...

Wiring the senses: Factors that regulate peripheral axon pathfinding in sensory systems
Abstract Sensory neurons of the head are the ones that transmit the information about the external world to our brain for its processing. Axons from cranial sensory neurons sense different chemoattractant and chemorepulsive molecules during the journey and in the target tissue to establish the precise innervation with brain neurons and/or receptor ...

Interplay between hysteresis and nonlocality during onset and arrest of flow in granular materials [PDF]
The jamming transition in granular materials is well-known for exhibiting hysteresis, wherein the level of shear stress required to trigger flow is larger than that below which flow stops. Although such behavior is typically modeled as a simple non-monotonic flow rule, the rheology of granular materials is also nonlocal due to cooperativity at the ...

The Transcriptional Corepressor NAB2 Inhibits NGF-induced Differentiation of PC12 Cells [PDF]
The PC12 pheochromocytoma cell line responds to NGF by undergoing growth arrest and proceeding to differentiate toward a neuronal phenotype. Among the early genetic events triggered by NGF in PC12 cells are the rapid activation of the zinc finger ...
