One at a time, live tracking of NGF axonal transport using quantum dots [PDF]
Retrograde axonal transport of nerve growth factor (NGF) signals is critical for the survival, differentiation, and maintenance of peripheral sympathetic and sensory neurons and basal forebrain cholinergic neurons.

NGF – the TrkA to successful pain treatment
Chronic pain arising from various pathological conditions such as osteoarthritis, low back or spinal injuries, cancer, and urological chronic pelvic pain syndromes presents significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment. Specifically, since the underlying cause of these pain syndromes is unknown or heterogeneous, physicians diagnose and treat ...

Hallmarks of Neuroblastoma—Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Therapeutic Interventions
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor in childhood, continues to challenge clinicians and researchers because of its heterogeneous nature and complex pathophysiology. Recent breakthroughs in molecular profiling revealed intricate genetic alterations driving tumor progression, necessitating an updated perspective on the ...

Target-derived neurotrophic factors regulate the death of developing forebrain neurons after a change in their trophic requirements [PDF]
Many neurons die as the normal brain develops. How this is regulated and whether the mechanism involves neurotrophic molecules from target cells are unknown.

ABSTRACT Background The NTRK fusion gene is detected in most salivary gland secretory carcinomas. While tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitors are used for various solid tumors with the fusion gene, there are no reports regarding TRK inhibitor use for unresectable parotid gland carcinomas that subsequently shrink and become resectable.

Association of NGF receptors with membrane rafts in PC12 cells : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) signal transduction is involved in the survival, differentiation and maintenance of neurons through the receptors TrkA and p75NTR. These receptors activate downstream protein kinase cascades that regulate cell survival.

Novel mutations in UL24 and gH rescue efficient infection of an HSV vector retargeted to TrkA
Transductional targeting of herpes simplex virus (HSV)-based gene therapy vectors offers the potential for improved tissue-specific delivery and can be achieved by modification of the viral entry machinery to incorporate ligands that bind the desired ...

Background Glucose fluctuation promotes neuronal apoptosis, which plays a central role in diabetic encephalopathy (DE). Nerve growth factor (NGF), and its interaction with high-affinity (TrkA) and low-affinity (p75NTR) receptors, are involved in neuronal

Neurotrophins, the cognate ligands for the Trk receptors, are homodimers and induce Trk dimerization through a symmetric bivalent mechanism. We report here that amitriptyline, an antidepressant drug, directly binds TrkA and TrkB and triggers their dimerization and activation.

ABSTRACT Large congenital melanocytic nevi/nevus (LCMN) are caused by genetic events that activate the mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) and extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. Individuals with LCMN are prone to developing aggressive melanomas during childhood.
