The expression system affects the binding affinity between p75NTR and proNGF
ProNGF (nerve growth factor) is a precursor of NGF and a signaling peptide exerting opposite effects on neuronal cells, i.e., apoptotic or neuritogenic.

Neural crest stem cells and their potential therapeutic applications [PDF]
The neural crest (NC) is a remarkable transient structure generated during early vertebrate development. The neural crest progenitors have extensive migratory capacity and multipotency, harboring stem cell-like characteristics such as self-renewal.

This study investigates four Chinese families with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA). Through next‐generation sequencing, we identified seven NTRK1 variants, including two novel mutations. Functional characterization of five identified missense and indel variants revealed distinct disruptions in the NGF‐TrkA pathway, ranging from ...

The p75NTR extracellular domain [PDF]
Senile plaques composed of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the brain are one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer disease (AD). Removal of Aβ from the brain is the most important therapeutic strategy for AD. The solubility of Aβ is critical for its endocytosis, transcytosis and removal from the brain.

Accumulation of the nerve growth factor precursor (proNGF) and its receptor p75NTR have been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases in both brain and retina. However, whether proNGF contributes to microvascular degeneration remain unexplored.

Gamma and theta brain rhythms play important roles in cognition and their interaction can affect gamma oscillation features. Hippocampal theta oscillations depend on cholinergic and GABAergic input from the medial septum-diagonal band of Broca.

Characterisation of ERK distribution and activity in rat pheochromocytoma cells : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Molecular Biology at Massey University [PDF]
Nerve growth factor (NGF) binds to the NGF receptor, TrkA, at the tips of nerve cell axons, sending a signal that prevents programmed cell death and causes survival, growth, and differentiation of the nerve cell.

Nerve growth factor/p75 neurotrophin receptor–mediated sensitization of rat sensory neurons depends on membrane cholesterol [PDF]
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is an important mediator in the initiation of the inflammatory response and NGF via activation of the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)) and downstream sphingomyelin signaling leads to significant enhancement of the ...

This research identified cardiac amyloid pathology, neurotrophic factor depletion, and reduced myocardial nerve function in a transgenic model of cerebral amyloidosis (Tg2576), Aβ‐challenged cardiomyocytes, and in human AD heart tissue. These findings carry significant diagnostic and therapeutic implications, emphasizing the role of neuro‐signaling ...

Organotypic culture of normal, dysplastic and squamous cell carcinoma-derived oral cell lines reveals loss of spatial regulation of CD44 and p75NTR in malignancy [PDF]
Oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) often arise from dysplastic lesions. The role of cancer stem cells in tumour initiation is widely accepted, yet the potential existence of pre-cancerous stem cells in dysplastic tissue has received little attention ...
