The potential role of the p75 receptor in schizophrenia: neuroimmunomodulation and making life or death decisions

open access: yesBrain, Behavior, & Immunity - Health
The nerve growth factor receptor, also referred to as tumour necrosis factor II and the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75), serves pleiotropic functions in both the peripheral and central nervous system, involving modulation of immune responses, cell ...

Etiological Roles of p75NTR in a Mouse Model of Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration

open access: yesCells, 2023
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a pathological angiogenesis of the choroidal plexus of the retina and is a key feature in the wet form of age-related macular degeneration.

Fine-tuning roles of endogenous brain-derived neurotrophic factor, TrkB and sortilin in colorectal cancer cell survival.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundNeurotrophin receptors were initially identified in neural cells. They were recently detected in some cancers in association with invasiveness, but the function of these tyrosine kinase receptors was not previously investigated in colorectal ...

p75 neurotrophin receptor and fenretinide-induced signaling in neuroblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology, 2013
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood. The retinoic acid analogue, fenretinide (4-hydroxyphenyl retinamide; 4-HPR), induces apoptosis in neuroblastoma cells in vitro and is currently in clinical trials for children with refractory neuroblastoma.

Mapping of the interaction site between sortilin and the p75 neurotrophin receptor reveals a regulatory role for the sortilin intracellular domain in p75 neurotrophin receptor shedding and apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Neurotrophins comprise a group of neuronal growth factors that are essential for the development and maintenance of the nervous system. However, the immature pro-neurotrophins promote apoptosis by engaging in a complex with sortilin and the p75 ...

Sortilin participates in light-dependent photoreceptor degeneration in vivo.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Both proNGF and the neurotrophin receptor p75 (p75(NTR)) are known to regulate photoreceptor cell death caused by exposure of albino mice to intense illumination.

p75 Is Required for the Establishment of Postnatal Sensory Neuron Diversity by Potentiating Ret Signaling

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Producing the neuronal diversity required to adequately discriminate all elements of somatosensation is a complex task during organogenesis. The mechanisms guiding this process during dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neuron specification remain poorly ...

Regulating Cells Fate and Function to Facilitate Bone Regeneration via Designing Programmable Bio‐Interactive Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This article aims to elucidate the biological mechanisms of bone repair and the evolution of material design, highlighting key cellular and molecular processes. It further proposes strategies and prospects for programmable bio‐interactive materials, which enable precisely guided bone tissue regeneration by dynamically regulating cell behavior and the ...
