Age-Dependency of Neurite Outgrowth in Postnatal Mouse Cochlear Spiral Ganglion Explants
Background: The spatial gap between cochlear implants (CIs) and the auditory nerve limits frequency selectivity as large populations of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) are electrically stimulated synchronously.

Deletion of Tsc2 in nociceptors reduces target innervation, ion channel expression, and sensitivity to heat [PDF]
The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is known to regulate cellular growth pathways, and its genetic activation is sufficient to enhance regenerative axon growth following injury to the central or peripheral nervous systems.

Interactions between Type III receptor tyrosine phosphatases and growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases regulate tracheal tube formation in Drosophila [PDF]
The respiratory (tracheal) system of the Drosophila melanogaster larva is an intricate branched network of air-filled tubes. Its developmental logic is similar in some ways to that of the vertebrate vascular system.

The dependence receptor TrkC regulates the number of sensory neurons during DRG development
The development of the sensory nervous system is the result of fine-tuned waves of neurogenesis and apoptosis which control the appropriate number of precursors and newly generated neurons and orient them toward a specific lineage. Neurotrophins and their tyrosine-kinase receptors (RTK) orchestrate this process.

Although CNS axons have the capacity to regenerate after spinal cord injury when provided with a permissive substrate, the lack of appropriate synaptic target sites for regenerating fibers may limit restoration of spinal circuitry.

Runx1 promotes neuronal differentiation in dorsal root ganglion [PDF]
Transcription factor Runx1 controls the cell type specification of peptidergic and nonpeptidergic nociceptive dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons by repressing TrkA and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) expression and activating Ret expression during

Expressing TrkC from the TrkA locus causes a subset of dorsal root ganglia neurons to switch fate [PDF]
El pdf del artículo es el manuscrito de autor.-- et al.Tactile information is perceived by a heterogeneous population of specialized neurons. Neurotrophin receptors (the receptor tyrosine kinases, Trks) mark the major classes of these sensory neurons ...

Increased opioid dependence in a mouse model of panic disorder
Panic disorder is a highly prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder that shows co-occurrence with substance abuse. Here, we demonstrate that TrkC, the high affinity receptor for neurotrophin-3, is a key molecule involved in panic disorder and opiate ...

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.
