Contributions of Cell-extrinsic and Cell-intrinsic Factors to the Differentiation of a Neural-crest-derived Neuroendocrine Progenitor Cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A central question in developmental neurobiology concerns the mechanisms that generate cellular diversity in the vertebrate nervous system. Cell lineage analyses have established that many progenitor cells in the developing nervous system are multipotent

Combinatorial expression of glial transcription factors induces Schwann cell‐specific gene expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Schwann cells provide peripheral nerve trophic support, myelinate axons, and assist in repair. However, Schwann cell repair capacity is limited by chronic injury, disease, and aging. Schwann cell reprogramming is a cellular conversion strategy that could provide a renewable cell supply to repair injured nerves.

Loss of YY1, a Regulator of Metabolism in Melanoma, Drives Melanoma Cell Invasiveness and Metastasis Formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Deregulation of cellular metabolism through metabolic rewiring and translational reprogramming are considered hallmark traits of tumor development and malignant progression.

NGF, TrkA-P and neuroprotection after a hypoxic event in the developing central nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Tumor Organoids: Breakthroughs in Clinical Decision Making, Drug Development, and Translational Advances Beyond Conventional Models

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tumor organoid models are revolutionizing cancer research by bridging the translational gap between conventional two‐dimensional cell cultures and animal models. This Editorial thoroughly explores the fundamental innovations of patient‐derived organoid technology.

Involvement of polymorphisms of the nerve growth factor and its receptor encoding genes in the etiopathogenesis of ischemic stroke

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2018
Background Despite the important role of the nerve growth factor in the survival and maintenance of neurons in ischemic stroke, data regarding the relationships between variations in the encoding gene and stroke are lacking.

Nerve growth factor receptors in dementia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background/aim: Nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes the survival and differentiation of sensory and sympathetic neurons. Several studies have found that certain neuropathological factors stimulate NGF receptor expression and release the truncated nerve ...

The sensory penis: A comprehensive immunohistological and ontogenetic exploration of human penile innervation

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Penile sexual sensation relies on intricate neural structures that remain incompletely characterized. Immunohistological insights into their development and organization can enhance understanding of penile neuroanatomy and function, while optimizing surgical outcomes.

Effect of amisulpride on the expression of serotonin receptors, neurotrophic factor BDNF and its receptors in mice with overexpression of the aggregation-prone [R406W] mutant tau protein

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции
Serotonin 5-HT7 receptors (5-HT7R) are attracting increasing attention as important participants in the mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease and as a possible target for the treatment of various tau pathologies. In this study, we investigated the effects of
