Mechanisms of nerve growth factor signaling in bone nociceptors and in an animal model of inflammatory bone pain

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2017
Sequestration of nerve growth factor has been used successfully in the management of pain in animal models of bone disease and in human osteoarthritis.

Nerve growth factor (NGF) and NGF receptors in mesenchymal stem/stromal cells: Impact on potential therapies

open access: yesStem Cells Translational Medicine, 2021
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are promising for the treatment of degenerative diseases and traumatic injuries. However, MSC engraftment is not always successful and requires a strong comprehension of the cytokines and their receptors that mediate

Trophic and neurotrophic factors in human pituitary adenomas (Review) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The pituitary gland is an organ that functionally connects the hypothalamus with the peripheral organs. The pituitary gland is an important regulator of body homeostasis during development, stress, and other processes.

Regulations of Astrocytic Functions by Endothelins: Roles in the Pathophysiological Responses of Damaged Brains

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
The receptors for endothelins (ETs) are classified into the ETA and ETB types. ETB receptors are highly expressed in astrocytes, but pharmacological usages of this receptor are not clarified.

Nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and the chronobiology of mood: a new insight into the "neurotrophic hypothesis" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The light information pathways and their relationship with the body rhythms have generated a new insight into the neurobiology and the neurobehavioral sciences, as well as into the clinical approaches to human diseases associated with disruption of ...

Nerve Growth Factor Receptor-Mediated Gene Transfer

open access: yesMolecular Therapy, 2004
One obstacle to effective gene therapies for neurological disorders lies in the cell-type diversity of the nervous system, making it difficult to direct gene delivery vectors to specific types of cells. To meet this challenge, we have developed a recombinant peptide-based gene delivery vector that targets nerve growth factor (NGF) receptors.

NGF, TrkA-P and neuroprotection after a hypoxic event in the developing central nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A decrease in the concentration of oxygen in the blood and tissues (hypoxia) produces important, sometimes irreversible, damages in the central nervous system (CNS) both during development and also postnatally.

Both P140TRK and P75NGFR nerve growth factor receptors mediate nerve growth factor-stimulated calcium uptake [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 1997
Human p140(trk) and p75(NGFR) were transfected separately into 3T3 cells. Nerve growth factor stimulates calcium uptake into both transfectants but not into untransfected 3T3 cells. p140(trk) cells were stimulated maximally by 25 ng/ml; 100 ng/ml was submaximal for p75(NGFR) cells.

Nerve growth factor: two receptors, multiple functions

open access: yesBioEssays, 1998
Nerve growth factor (NGF) was characterized over 4 decades ago, and like the other neurotrophins subsequently discovered, it is best known for its trophic role, including the prevention of programmed cell death in specific populations of neurones in the peripheral nervous system. This property can be accounted for by the activation of a tyrosine kinase

Contemporary views on inflammatory pain mechanisms: TRPing over innate and microglial pathways. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tissue injury, whether by trauma, surgical intervention, metabolic dysfunction, ischemia, or infection, evokes a complex cellular response (inflammation) that is associated with painful hyperalgesic states.
