Imbalance of p75(NTR)/TrkB protein expression in Huntington's disease: Implication for neuroprotective therapies [PDF]
Neuroprotective therapies based on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) administration have been proposed for Huntington's disease (HD) treatment. However, our group has recently reported reduced levels of TrkB in HD mouse models and HD human brain ...

p75NTR Is Positively Promiscuous [PDF]
Although identified almost 20 years ago, the precise physiological role of the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) has remained elusive. Recent studies have revealed that p75NTR is a component of three distinct receptor platforms that bind different ligands and that, under differing circumstances, facilitate cell survival, cell death, or growth ...

Introduction: The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) is known as an efficient marker for the prospective isolation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and neural crest-derived stem cells (NCSCs). To date, there is quite limited information concerning p75NTR-

Reduced anxiety-like behavior and altered hippocampal morphology in female p75NTR exon IV-/- mice.
The presence of the neurotrophin receptor p75NTR in adult basal forebrain cholinergic neurons, precursor cells in the subventricular cell layer and the subgranular cell layer of the hippocampus has been linked to alterations in learning as well as ...

Subconjunctival delivery of p75NTR antagonists reduces the inflammatory, vascular, and neurodegenerative pathologies of diabetic retinopathy [PDF]
The p75NTR is a novel therapeutic target validated in a streptozotocin mouse model of diabetic retinopathy. Intravitreal (IVT) injection of small molecule p75NTR antagonist THX-B was therapeutic and resolved the inflammatory, vascular, and ...

Muscle Progenitors Derived from Extraocular Muscles Express Higher Levels of Neurotrophins and their Receptors than other Cranial and Limb Muscles [PDF]
Extraocular muscles (EOMs) show resistance to muscle dystrophies and sarcopenia. It has been recently demonstrated that they are endowed with different types of myogenic cells, all of which present an outstanding regenerative potential. Neurotrophins are

Phenotypic characterization of human prostatic stromal cells in primary cultures derived from human tissue samples [PDF]
Emerging evidence has shown that the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in prostate cancer (PCa) development and progression. However, the mechanism(s) through which stromal cells regulate epithelial cells and the differences among prostatic ...
