p75NTR Is Positively Promiscuous [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2004
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 ...

Nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and the chronobiology of mood: a new insight into the "neurotrophic hypothesis" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The light information pathways and their relationship with the body rhythms have generated a new insight into the neurobiology and the neurobehavioral sciences, as well as into the clinical approaches to human diseases associated with disruption of ...

Reversal of Cognitive Impairment in gp120 Transgenic Mice by the Removal of the p75 Neurotrophin Receptor

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Activation of the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR), by the proneurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (proBDNF), triggers loss of synapses and promotes neuronal death.

The pharmacological perturbation of brain zinc impairs BDNF-related signaling and the cognitive performances of young mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Zinc (Zn2+) is a pleiotropic modulator of the neuronal and brain activity. The disruption of intraneuronal Zn2+ levels triggers neurotoxic processes and affects neuronal functioning.

Phenotypic characterization of human prostatic stromal cells in primary cultures derived from human tissue samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

A novel inhibitor of p75-neurotrophin receptor improves functional outcomes in two models of traumatic brain injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important in multiple physiological actions including neuronal survival and neurite outgrowth during development, and after central nervous system injury.

AraC interacts with p75NTR transmembrane domain to induce cell death of mature neurons

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Cytosine arabinoside (AraC) is one of the main therapeutic treatments for several types of cancer, including acute myeloid leukaemia. However, after a high-dose AraC chemotherapy regime, patients develop severe neurotoxicity and cell death in the central

Trophic and neurotrophic factors in human pituitary adenomas (Review) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The pituitary gland is an organ that functionally connects the hypothalamus with the peripheral organs. The pituitary gland is an important regulator of body homeostasis during development, stress, and other processes.

Muscle Progenitors Derived from Extraocular Muscles Express Higher Levels of Neurotrophins and their Receptors than other Cranial and Limb Muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
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

Functional interaction between p75NTR and TrkA: the endocytic trafficking of p75NTR is driven by TrkA and regulates TrkA-mediated signalling [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2004
The topology and trafficking of receptors play a key role in their signalling capability. Indeed, receptor function is related to the microenvironment inside the cell, where specific signalling molecules are compartmentalized. The response to NGF (nerve growth factor) is strongly dependent on the trafficking of its receptor, TrkA.
