Effect of retinoic acid on nerve growth factor receptors
Cell and Tissue Research, 1987Retinoic acid (RA), a naturally occurring metabolite of vitamin A, increased the number of receptors for nerve growth factor (NGF) in cultured human neuroblastoma cells (LA-N-1), as indicated by an immunofluorescence assay of cell surface receptors and by specific binding of 125I-NGF to solubilized receptors. Analysis of 125I-NGF binding showed that RA

Nerve growth factor and its receptor in the anterior pituitary
Endocrinology, 1994Abstract beta-Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) is a 26-kilodalton protein that has, in recent years, been discovered to have functions beyond that of its classical neurotrophic actions. It has been linked to both the neuroendocrine and the immune systems, and NGF-like bio- and immunoreactivities have been found in the anterior pituitary (AP)

Expression of nerve growth factor receptors in cutaneous inflammation
British Journal of Dermatology, 1998Evidence indicates that the neurotrophin nerve growth factor (NGF) is a mediator of cutaneous inflammatory responses. Cellular responses to NGF are facilitated by two receptors called trk A and p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR). In the current study we have investigated the expression of these receptors in lesional and non-lesional skin from patients ...

Nerve Growth Factor Receptors in Human Neuroblastoma Cells
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1987AbstractReceptors for the nerve growth factor protein (NGFR) present in the human neuroblastoma cell line LAN‐1 were characterized. LAN‐1 cells display high‐affinity (type I, with KD value of 5.9 × 10‐11M) and low‐affinity (type II, with KD value of 9.2 × 10‐9M) binding to NGF.

Characteristics of Partially Purified Nerve Growth Factor Receptor
Journal of Neurochemistry, 1987Abstract: Receptors for the nerve growth factor protein (NGF) have been isolated from three cell types [embryonic chicken sensory neurons (dorsal root sensory ganglia; DRG), rat pheochromocytoma (PC 12) and human neuroblastoma (LAN‐1) cells] and have been shown to be similar with respect to equilibrium dissociation constants.

AbstractGlucocorticoids and nerve growth factor (NGF) have been shown to have antagonistic effects on chromaffin cells in vivo. Here we determined the effect of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, on levels of mRNA for the nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) in rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells.

The Nerve Growth Factor Receptor: Biochemical and Structural Analysis
1989Publisher Summary This chapter reviews the biochemical characterization of the human nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor and the expression and molecular cloning of the receptor after gene transfer into heterologous cells. It also discusses the structural features of the receptor in relation to its many functional responses.

AbstractSensory neurons of the adult rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) can be maintained in culture in the absence of nerve growth factor (NGF). We have thus used dissociated cultures of these neurons to study effects of NGF on the regulation of expression of mRNA encoding the nerve growth factor receptor (NGF‐R).

The synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF) and nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) were studied in a C6 glioma cell line by Northern blot hybridization. In response to a glutamate agonist N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA), NGF mRNA increased by up to 2-fold after 4-12 h of culture.

Abstract: We have used biologically active derivatives of β‐nerve growth factor (NGF), modified by biotinylation via carboxyl groups, to target the specific binding of liposomes to cultured rat and human tumor cells bearing NGF receptors. Liposomes, to be used for targeting, were prepared by conjugating streptavidin to phospholipid amino groups on ...
