Neurotrophic Factor Changes in the Rat Thick Skin following Chronic Constriction Injury of the Sciatic Nerve [PDF]
Background: Cutaneous peripheral neuropathies have been associated with changes of the sensory fiber innervation in the dermis and epidermis. These changes are mediated in part by the increase in local expression of trophic factors.

Sphingolipids in Emotional Well‐Being
Sphingolipids are essential constituents of neuronal membranes and are increasingly recognized as contributors to the key behavioral manifestations associated with emotional well‐being. ABSTRACT Emotional well‐being is a multifactorial concept, which comprises not only life quality of human individuals, but also their mental and physical health.

Synaptic membrane rafts: traffic lights for local neurotrophin signalling?
Lipid rafts, cholesterol and lipid rich microdomains, are believed to play important roles as platforms for the partitioning of transmembrane and synaptic proteins involved in synaptic signalling, plasticity and maintenance.

Observations at the CNS–PNS Border of Ventral Roots Connected to a Neuroma [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that numerous sprouts originating from a neuroma, after nerve injury in neonatal animals, can invade spinal nerve roots. In this study the border between the central and peripheral nervous system (CNS-PNS border) of ventral ...

Urinary Extracellular Domain of Neurotrophin Receptor p75 as a Biomarker for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in a Chinese cohort [PDF]
To comprehensively assess whether p75ECD in urine could be a candidate biomarker for ALS evaluation. Urine samples were collected from 101 ALS patients, 108 patients with other neurological disease (OND) and 97 healthy controls.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) rapidly penetrates into the brain and establishes a persistent infection of macrophages/microglia. Activation of these cells by HIV results in the secretion of soluble factors that destabilize neuronal calcium ...

Involvement of ras p2I in Neurotrophin-induced Response of Sensory, but Not Sympathetic Neurons [PDF]
Little is known about the signal transduction mechanisms involved in the response to neurotrophins and other neurotrophic factors in neurons, beyond the activation of the tyrosine kinase activity of the neurotrophin receptors belonging to the trk family.

Genetically-induced cholinergic hyper-innervation enhances taste learning
Acute inhibition of acetylcholine (ACh) has been shown to impair many forms of simple learning, and notably conditioned taste aversion (CTA). The most adhered-to theory that has emerged as a result of this work—that ACh increases a taste’s perceived ...

The invasive nature of glioblastoma renders them incurable by current therapeutic interventions. Using a novel invasive human glioma model, we previously identified the neurotrophin receptor p75NTR (aka CD271) as a mediator of glioma invasion. Herein, we
