High-affinity TrkA and p75 neurotrophin receptor complexes: A twisted affair [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2022
Neurotrophin signaling is essential for normal nervous system development and adult function. Neurotrophins are secreted proteins that signal via interacting with two neurotrophin receptor types: the multifaceted p75 neurotrophin receptor and the tropomyosin receptor kinase receptors. In vivo, neurons compete for the limited quantities of neurotrophins,

β-Hydroxybutyrate Ameliorates Aβ-Induced Downregulation of TrkA Expression by Inhibiting HDAC1/3 in SH-SY5Y Cells

American Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias, 2020
Tyrosine kinase receptor A (TrkA) plays an important role in the protection of cholinergic neurons in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study was designed to investigate whether β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), an endogenous histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor ...

Mechanisms of Action and Cell Death Associated with Clostridium perfringens Toxins. [PDF]

, 2018
Clostridium perfringens uses its large arsenal of protein toxins to produce histotoxic, neurologic and intestinal infections in humans and animals. The major toxins involved in diseases are alpha (CPA), beta (CPB), epsilon (ETX), iota (ITX), enterotoxin (

CCM2 Mediates Death Signaling by the TrkA Receptor Tyrosine Kinase [PDF]

Neuron, 2009
The TrkA receptor tyrosine kinase is crucial for differentiation and survival of nerve-growth-factor-dependent neurons. Paradoxically, TrkA also induces cell death in pediatric tumor cells of neural origin, via an unknown mechanism. Here, we show that CCM2, a gene product associated with cerebral cavernous malformations, interacts with the ...

The Trk Potassium Transporter Is Required for RsmB-Mediated Activation of Virulence in the Phytopathogen Pectobacterium wasabiae [PDF]

, 2015
Pectobacterium wasabiae (previously known as Erwinia carotovora) is an important plant pathogen that regulates the production of plant cell wall-degrading enzymes through an N-acyl homoserine lactone-based quorum sensing system and through the GacS/GacA ...

TrkA neutrophin receptor protein in the rat and human thymus [PDF]

The Anatomical Record, 1997
Increasing evidence suggests that nerve growth factor (NGF), and probably other neurotrophins, are involved in the control of lymphoid organs and immunocompetent cells that express neurotrophins and/or their receptors. In the rat thymus, mRNA for TrkA (an essential component of the NGF signal transducing receptor) has been found primarily in stromal ...

Perspectives on the Trypanosoma cruzi-host cell receptor interaction [PDF]

, 2009
Chagas disease is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. The critical initial event is the interaction of the trypomastigote form of the parasite with host receptors. This review highlights recent observations concerning these interactions.

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

, 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

Nerve growth factor and Tropomyosin receptor kinase A are increased in the gastric mucosa of patients with functional dyspepsia

BMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background Nerve growth factor (NGF) and enteric glial cells (EGCs) are associated with visceral hypersensitivity and gastrointestinal motility disorder, which may represent the pathogenesis of functional dyspepsia (FD).

Endosomal pH in Neuronal Signaling and Synaptic Transmission: Role of Na+/H+ Exchangers

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
Neuronal precursor cells extend multiple neurites during development, one of which extends to form an axon whereas others develop into dendrites. Chemical stimulation of N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in fully-differentiated neurons induces ...
