Nicotine stimulation of nerve growth factor receptor expression
Life Sciences, 1994Previous studies have suggested that nicotine may have beneficial actions in neurodegenerative disease models. The purpose of the experiments described in this study was to determine whether the long lasting and beneficial effects of nicotine observed previously could be expressed through actions upon nerve growth factor (NGF) receptors.

Epidermal growth factor receptor ≠ nerve growth factor
Neurobiology of Aging, 1989I 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 ...

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.

Expression of nerve growth factor receptor during human peripheral nerve development
Developmental Biology, 1988The expression of NGF receptors on human Schwann cells during development and myelination and in culture was analyzed using a murine monoclonal antibody to human NGF receptor. Nonmyelinated femoral nerves from 13- to 14-week fetuses stained strongly for NGF receptor, whereas tissues from later stages of development showed a decrease in the staining ...

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1987
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 ...

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 receptor role on rabbit sperm storage
Theriogenology, 2020The influence of NGF in male reproduction in some animal species and humans has already been assessed. Many of these effects are mediated by the distribution and abundance of tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrKA) and p75 neurotrophin (p75NTR) receptors on sperm cells.

The Membrane Receptor for Nerve Growth Factor
1991Receptors for mammalian growth factors are integral membrane proteins designed to have multiple functions for communicating with other cells and for intracellular signal transduction. These cell surface proteins have binding sites for the ligand that face the external environment and also an effector site that generates a biological signal within the ...
