Targeting the PTN/PTPRZ1-ROS Pathway to Promote Bone Regeneration

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: Osteoporosis is a global health problem that significantly decreases patients’ quality of life and causes tremendous medical burdens. Therefore, exploring effective targeting strategies for osteoporosis treatment is crucial.

The Drosophila midkine/pleiotrophin homologues Miple1 and Miple2 affect adult lifespan but are dispensable for alk signaling during embryonic gut formation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Midkine (MDK) and Pleiotrophin (PTN) are small heparin-binding cytokines with closely related structures. The Drosophila genome harbours two genes encoding members of the MDK/PTN family of proteins, known as miple1 and miple2.

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

On the role of pleiotrophin and its receptors in development and angiogenesis

open access: yesThe International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2022
The secreted growth factor pleiotrophin (PTN) is expressed in all species and is evolutionarily highly conserved, suggesting that it plays a significant role in the regulation of important processes. The observation that it is highly expressed at early stages during development and in embryonic progenitor cells highlights a potentially important ...

Microglia Mitochondria Support Neuronal Maturation via Metabolic and Transcriptional Reprogramming in Human 3D In Vitro Brain Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
xx xx. ABSTRACT Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by disrupted neuronal circuit maturation. Emerging evidence implicates microglial function and mitochondrial regulation as contributors to ASD‐associated biology, yet the mechanisms linking these processes to neuronal development remain poorly defined ...

The pro-angiogenic cytokine pleiotrophin potentiates cardiomyocyte apoptosis through inhibition of endogenous AKT/PKB activity

open access: yes, 2007
Pleiotrophin is a development-regulated cytokine and growth factor that can promote angiogenesis, cell proliferation, or differentiation, and it has been reported to have neovasculogenic effects in damaged heart.

A Tac1‐Expressing Brainstem Pathway Underlies the Pathogenesis of Trigeminal Neuralgia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.
A critical TG‐Sp5CTac1‐PBNTac1 pathway drives trigeminal neuropathic pain (TNP). Tac1‐expressing parabrachial nucleus (PBNTac1) neurons exhibit heightened responses to innocuous stimuli in TNP, and chemogenetic inhibition of these neurons effectively prevents TNP development.
