SALM5 trans-synaptically interacts with LAR-RPTPs in a splicing-dependent manner to regulate synapse development [PDF]
Synaptogenic adhesion molecules play critical roles in synapse formation. SALM5/Lrfn5, a SALM/Lrfn family adhesion molecule implicated in autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and schizophrenia, induces presynaptic differentiation in contacting axons, but its

Role of NTRK Fusion Genes in the Tumor Immune Microenvironment of HPV (+/−) Cervical Cancer
ABSTRACT Cervical cancer, a prevalent gynecological malignancy, is primarily associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. However, some cases display distinct molecular alterations beyond HPV, significantly impacting the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and posing therapeutic challenges.

TrkC Binds to the Bone Morphogenetic Protein Type II Receptor to Suppress Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling [PDF]
Abstract TrkC, a member of the tropomyosin-related kinase (Trk) family of neurotrophin receptors, is implicated in the growth and survival of human cancer tissues. TrkC is also a potent oncoprotein expressed in tumors derived from multiple cell lineages, and functions as an active protein tyrosine kinase by neurotrophin-3 (NT-3).

Role of neurotrophins on dermal fibroblast survival and differentiation [PDF]
Neurotrophins (NTs) belong to a family of growth factors that play a critical role in the control of skin homeostasis. NTs act through the low-affinity receptor p75NTR and the high-affinity receptors TrkA, TrkB and TrkC.

Preclinical evaluation of the oral toxicity, genotoxicity, and safety pharmacology of LPM4870108. ABSTRACT Tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) inhibitors are an essential class of anticancer drugs treating NTRK gene fusions‐positive cancer. However, the potential for the emergence of on‐target resistance suggests newer Trk inhibitors with low drug ...

Immunohistochemical profile of neurotrophins in human cranial dura mater and meningiomas [PDF]
The immunohistochemical profile of neurotrophins and their receptors in the human cranial dura mater was studied by examining certain dural zones in specimens harvested from different regions (frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital).

Toward molecular phenotyping of temporal lobe epilepsy by spatial omics
Abstract Objective In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), detection of the epileptogenic zone predicts a good surgical outcome. When submitted to 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET), some patients display lateralized, focal hypometabolism in the temporal lobe (PET+), whereas others appear normometabolic (PET−).

Biological background of pediatric medulloblastoma and ependymoma: A review from a translational research perspective [PDF]
Survival rates of pediatric brain tumor patients have significantly improved over the years due to developments in diagnostic techniques, neurosurgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and supportive care. However, brain tumors are still an important cause of

Elp1 function in placode‐derived neurons is critical for proper trigeminal ganglion development
Abstract Background The trigeminal nerve is the largest cranial nerve and functions in somatosensation. Cell bodies of this nerve are positioned in the trigeminal ganglion, which arises from the coalescence of neural crest and placode cells. While this dual cellular origin has been known for decades, the molecular mechanisms controlling trigeminal ...
