Targeting the Nerve Growth Factor Signaling Impairs the Proliferative and Migratory Phenotype of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells [PDF]
Triple-negative breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that still lacks specific therapeutic approaches. The identification of new biomarkers, predictive of the disease’s aggressiveness and pharmacological response, is a challenge for a more tailored ...

Nerve growth factor receptors in dementia [PDF]
Nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes the survival and differentiation of sensory and sympathetic neurons. Several studies have found that certain neuropathological factors stimulate NGF receptor expression and release the truncated nerve growth factor receptor (TNGFR) to biological fluids.

Nerve growth factor and its receptor in schizophrenia
Promising studies suggest that defects in synaptic plasticity detected in schizophrenia may be linked to neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative abnormalities and contribute to disease-associated cognitive impairment. We aimed to clarify the role of the synaptic plasticity regulatory proteins, nerve growth factor (NGF) and its receptor (NGFR) in the ...

Nerve growth factor receptor negates the tumor suppressor p53 as a feedback regulator
Cancer develops and progresses often by inactivating p53. Here, we unveil nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR, p75NTR or CD271) as a novel p53 inactivator.

Human Melanoma Initiating Cells Express Neural Crest Nerve Growth Factor Receptor CD271 [PDF]
The question of whether tumorigenic cancer stem cells exist in human melanomas has arisen in the last few years. Here we show that in melanomas, tumour stem cells (MTSCs, for melanoma tumour stem cells) can be isolated prospectively as a highly enriched ...

Norepinephrine regulates epithelial-derived neurotrophins expression and sensory nerve regeneration through ADRB2 receptor [PDF]
Norepinephrine (NE) is mainly released by sympathetic nerve terminals to act on organs and tissues. After corneal epithelial debridement, we found that the sympathetic nerve fibers penetrated the limbus and regenerated toward the cornea within 24 h post ...

Administration of a tropomyosin receptor kinase inhibitor attenuates sarcoma-induced nerve sprouting, neuroma formation and bone cancer pain [PDF]
Pain often accompanies cancer and most current therapies for treating cancer pain have significant unwanted side effects. Targeting nerve growth factor (NGF) or its cognate receptor tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) has become an attractive target for
