Characteristics of the Nerve Growth Factor Receptors and a Nerve Growth Factor Receptor—Nerve Growth Factor Covalent Complex

International Journal of Neuroscience, 1985
Nerve growth factor is a polypeptide hormone that is required for the normal growth and development of the embryonic sensory and sympathetic nervous systems. On these cells, there are two different receptors for the nerve growth factor. Recently, these receptors have been isolated from three cell types and shown to have essentially the same binding ...

Receptors for Nerve Growth Factor

1993
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the two receptors for nerve growth factor (NGF)—namely, (1) the low-affinity NGF receptor and (2) the product of the proto-oncogene trk . It also reviews the way they were originally identified and the structural and functional features of the two receptors.

Regulation of the Synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor and Nerve Growth Factor Receptor

1988
The importance of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) for the development and the maintenance of differentiated properties of peripheral sympathetic and neural crest- derived sensory neurons as well as for basal forebrain cholinergic neurons is well established (cf Levi-Montalcini & Angeletti, 1968; Greene & Shooter, 1980; Thoenen & Barde, 1980; Thoenen et al ...

Nerve Growth Factor Receptors and Signaling in Breast Cancer

Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2004
Nerve growth factor (NGF) has long been known for its effects on neuronal cell survival and differentiation. This prototypical neurotrophic factor stimulates neurons through two distinct classes of membrane receptors: the TrkA tyrosine kinase receptor, and the tumor necrosis factor receptor family member p75NTR, also known as the common neurotrophin ...

Distribution of nerve growth factor, pro‐nerve growth factor, and their receptors in human salivary glands

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 2012
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a pluripotent mediator that is present in a range of human tissues. Nerve growth factor was originally considered important only in neuronal homeostasis and pathophysiology, but later it was also implicated in the pathophysiology of inflammation, epithelial differentiation, and wound healing. In this study, the distribution

Nerve growth factor and nerve growth factor receptors in respiratory syncytial virus-infected lungs

American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2002
Nerve growth factor (NGF) controls sensorineural development and responsiveness and modulates immunoinflammatory reactions. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) potentiates the proinflammatory effects of sensory nerves in rat airways by upregulating the substance P receptor, neurokinin 1 (NK1).

The nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1996
Abstract Receptors in the nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family are characterized by the presence of cysteine-rich motifs of ~40 amino acids in the extracellular domain. The ligands are type II transmembrane proteins with β-strands that form a jelly-roll β-sandwich.

Epidermal growth factor receptor ≠ nerve growth factor

Neurobiology of Aging, 1989
I am perplexed by the authors' complete lack of definition of neurotrophic factors. The agents Butcher and Woolf want to blame are neurite promoting factors, not neurotrophic factors. Treatment of Alzheimer's disease with NGF antagonists might instead exacerbate the death of both basal forebrain neurons and their cortical target neurons, accelerating ...

Acute Regulation of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Response to Nerve Growth Factor

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1991
Abstract: PC12 cells possess specific receptors for both nerve growth factor and epidermal growth factor, and by an unknown mechanism, nerve growth factor is able to attenuate the propagation of a mitogenic response to epidermal growth factor.
