Clinical scenario Canine osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease and is one of the most common chronic conditions in dogs and other species. The management of OA remains a longstanding focus in veterinary medicine. Traditionally, nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been the first‐line treatment option for canine OA. Recently,

TrkA abundance is increased in cutaneous nerves in bortezomib‐induced neuropathy
Cutaneous nerves in bortezomib‐induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN) show reduced nerve fiber density, increased TrkA expression, and enhanced dermal angiogenesis, highlighting a pathological switch in NGF/TrkA signaling that may contribute to nerve damage and pain. Abstract Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA), a high‐affinity receptor for nerve growth

Chronic nerve growth factor exposure increases apoptosis in a model of in vitro induced conjunctival myofibroblasts. [PDF]
In the conjunctiva, repeated or prolonged exposure to injury leads to tissue remodeling and fibrosis associated with dryness, lost of corneal transparency and defect of ocular function.

Tyrosine kinase A, C and fibroblast growth factor-2 receptors in bovine embryos cultured in vitro [PDF]
Neurotrophins and basic fibroblast growth factor are ligands of tyrosine kinase receptors, though they bind to different tyrosine kinase receptor classes.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

An ancient neurotrophin receptor code; a single Runx/Cbfβ complex determines somatosensory neuron fate specification in zebrafish. [PDF]
In terrestrial vertebrates such as birds and mammals, neurotrophin receptor expression is considered fundamental for the specification of distinct somatosensory neuron types where TrkA, TrkB and TrkC specify nociceptors, mechanoceptors and proprioceptors/

Role of nerve growth factor and its TRKA receptor in normal ovarian and epithelial ovarian cancer angiogenesis [PDF]
In normal ovarian function a controlled angiogenesis is essential. Several growth factors are involved in this process, such as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nerve growth factor (NGF). The angiogenesis process in the normal ovary is a

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Brn3a regulation of TrkA/NGF receptor expression in developing sensory neurons [PDF]
The TrkA/NGF receptor is essential for the survival and differentiation of sensory neurons. The molecular mechanisms regulating tissue and stage-specific expression of TrkA are largely unknown. The Brn3a POU-domain transcription factor has been implicated in the development of the PNS and proposed as a transcription regulator for TrkA.
