Nerve growth factor receptors in dementia [PDF]
Background/aim: Nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes the survival and differentiation of sensory and sympathetic neurons. Several studies have found that certain neuropathological factors stimulate NGF receptor expression and release the truncated nerve ...

Nerve growth factor binding domain of the nerve growth factor receptor. [PDF]
A structural analysis of the rat low-affinity nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor was undertaken to define the NGF binding domain. Mutant NGF receptor DNA constructs were expressed in mouse fibroblasts or COS cells, and the ability of the mutant receptor to bind NGF was assayed.

ProNGF-p75NTR axis plays a proinflammatory role in inflamed joints. A novel pathogenic mechanism in chronic arthritis [PDF]
To identify the role of mature nerve growth factor (mNGF), its immature form proNGF and their receptors in arthritis ...

We have previously demonstrated that high concentrations of nerve growth factor suppress neurite outgrowth from sensory neurons. Inhibition could be mediated by either the p75NTR or TrkA receptor.

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

The role of growth factors in human sperm parameters: A review of in vitro studies
In vitro sperm preparation/incubation and cryopreservation are associated with oxidative stress as the main cause of sperm damage, and different strategies are used to improve sperm quality in in vitro conditions to treat male infertility. Growth factors

an immunohistochemical study [PDF]
Background The roles of the neurotrophins NGF (Neurotrophic growth factor) and BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) in neuronal growth and development are already known. Meanwhile, the neurotrophin receptors TrkA (tropomyosin related kinase A), TrkB,

Objective. To study the change of expression of TrkA, p75 receptors and their ratio on the human anaplastic astrocytoma, glioblastoma and medulloblastoma cells cultures exposed to nerve growth factor (NGF) and its combination with cisplatin or ...

Identification of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) as a protein receptor for botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A). [PDF]
Botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A) causes transient muscle paralysis by entering motor nerve terminals (MNTs) where it cleaves the SNARE protein Synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP25206) to yield SNAP25197.

TrkB signaling is required for postnatal survival of CNS neurons and protects hippocampal and motor neurons from axotomy-induced cell death [PDF]
Newborn mice carrying targeted mutations in genes encoding neurotrophins or their signaling Trk receptors display severe neuronal deficits in the peripheral nervous system but not in the CNS. In this study, we show that trkB (¿/¿) mice have a significant
