Role of Serum Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor as a Biomarker of Chronic Pain in Older Adults
ABSTRACT Background Serum brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has emerged as a promising biomarker for chronic pain (CP) research and treatment. Yet, most human studies have been limited by small sample sizes, inadequate control of confounders and a lack of focus on sex and mental health differences.

A p75NTR Pivoting Paradigm Propels Perspicacity [PDF]
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)) is involved in numerous neuronal signaling paths but its fundamental signaling mechanisms are unknown. In this issue of Neuron, Vilar et al. show that p75NTR functions as a covalently crosslinked dimer to transduce NGF-induced signaling events.

Sexual Dimorphism in Balance and Coordination in p75NTRexonIII Knock-Out Mice
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) is implicated in various biological functions during development and adulthood. Several animal models have been developed to identify the roles of p75NTR in vivo and in vitro. P75NTRExonIII knock-out mice are widely

Nogo receptor antagonizes p75NTR-dependent motor neuron death [PDF]
The Nogo-66 receptor (NgR) plays a critical role in restricting axon regeneration in the central nervous system. This inhibitory action is in part mediated by a neuronal receptor complex containing p75NTR, a multifunctional receptor also well known to trigger cell death upon binding to neurotrophins such as NGF.

Escherichia coli in the production of biopharmaceuticals
Abstract Escherichia coli has shouldered a massive workload with the discovery of recombinant DNA technology. A new era began in the biopharmaceutical industry with the production of insulin, the first recombinant protein, in E. coli and its use in treating diabetes. After insulin, many biopharmaceuticals produced from E. coli have been approved by the

Biochanin A Reduces Drug-Induced p75NTR Expression and Enhances Cell Survival: A NewIn VitroAssay for Screening Inhibitors of p75NTR Expression [PDF]
Following spinal cord injury (SCI) or peripheral neuropathy, increased levels of the p75(NTR) death receptor initiate the signal transduction cascade leading to cell death. Investigations of compounds that may ameliorate neuronal cell death have largely used rodent models, which are time consuming, expensive, and cumbersome to perform. Previous studies

Ligand Fingerprinting in the Membrane Dynamics of Single TrkA and P75NTR Neurotrophin Receptors [PDF]
We have sought to investigate the responses of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) receptors TrkA and P75NTR at the plasma membrane of living neuronal cells by single-molecule imaging and tracking. To this purpose we exploit the acyl carrier peptide and some of its shortened versions (A1 and S6 tags, labeled selectively by two different PPTases) to tag human ...
