A high-throughput screen identifies that CDK7 activates glucose consumption in lung cancer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Elevated glucose consumption is fundamental to cancer, but selectively targeting this pathway is challenging. We develop a high-throughput assay for measuring glucose consumption and use it to screen non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines against ...

TrkB signaling is required for postnatal survival of CNS neurons and protects hippocampal and motor neurons from axotomy-induced cell death [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
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

NGF signaling in PC12 cells: the cooperation of p75NTR with TrkA is needed for the activation of both mTORC2 and the PI3K signalling cascade

open access: yesBiology Open, 2013
Summary PC12-27, a PC12 clone characterized by high levels of the transcription repressor REST and by very low mTORC2 activity, had been shown to be unresponsive to NGF, possibly because of its lack of the specific TrkA receptor.

Accurate and efficient description of protein vibrational dynamics: comparing molecular dynamics and Gaussian models

open access: yes, 2004
Current all-atom potential based molecular dynamics (MD) allow the identification of a protein's functional motions on a wide-range of time-scales, up to few tens of ns.

Emergence of functional sensory subtypes as defined by transient receptor potential channel expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The existence of heterogeneous populations of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons conveying different somatosensory information is the basis for the perception of touch, temperature, and pain. A differential expression of transient receptor potential (TRP)

Effects of the selective TrkA agonist gambogic amide on pigmentation and growth of human hair follicles in vitro.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The human hair follicle is a neuroendocrine mini-organ that can be used to study aging processes in vitro. Neurotrophins maintain homeostasis in hair biology via the Trk-family of receptors. TrkA, the high affinity receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF),

Association of TrkA and APP Is Promoted by NGF and Reduced by Cell Death-Promoting Agents

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
The amyloid precursor protein (APP) interacts with the tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) in normal rat, mouse, and human brain tissue but not in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brain tissue. However, it has not been reported whether the two proteins interact

Nerve growth factor is expressed by postmitotic avian retinal horizontal cells and supports their survival during development in an autocrine mode of action. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Cell death in the developing retina is regulated, but so far little is known about what factors regulate the cell death. Several neurotrophic factors and receptors, including the neurotrophins and Trk receptors, are expressed during the critical time. We

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

open access: yes, 2009
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.
