Runx1 promotes neuronal differentiation in dorsal root ganglion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Transcription factor Runx1 controls the cell type specification of peptidergic and nonpeptidergic nociceptive dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons by repressing TrkA and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) expression and activating Ret expression during

Increased opioid dependence in a mouse model of panic disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Panic disorder is a highly prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder that shows co-occurrence with substance abuse. Here, we demonstrate that TrkC, the high affinity receptor for neurotrophin-3, is a key molecule involved in panic disorder and opiate ...

Isolation of human pluripotent stem cell-derived sensory neuron subtypes by immunopanning

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Sensory neurons (SNs) detect a wide range of information from the body and the environment that is critical for homeostasis. There are three main subtypes of SNs: nociceptors, mechanoreceptors, and proprioceptors, which express different membrane ...

Induced Proprioceptor and Low‐Threshold Mechanoreceptor Neurons Derived from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Exhibit Distinct Functional Mechanosensory Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.
This study describes derivation of two distinct mechanosensory subpopulations from human pluripotent stem cells using a transcription factor mediated approach. Of significance, functional interrogation of induced mechanosensory subtypes reveal their unique responses to mechanical stimulation in the absence of end‐organs.

A cell fitness selection model for neuronal survival during development

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Programmed cell death is an important part of tissue development, and traditionally it is considered that neuronal death is a stochastic process in response to neurotrophic factor deprivation.

Neurotrophin-3 promotes peripheral nerve regeneration by maintaining a repair state of Schwann cells after chronic denervation via the TrkC/ERK/c-Jun pathway

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Background Maintaining the repair phenotype of denervated Schwann cells in the injured distal nerve is crucial for promoting peripheral nerve regeneration.

Melanoma: Pathogenesis and Targeted Therapy

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
The treatment landscape for advanced melanoma has evolved significantly. BRAF–MEK inhibitor combinations are standard for BRAF‐mutant melanoma, whereas targeting NRAS mutations is more challenging, with MEK inhibitors like tunlametinib emerging as an option.

The glia response after peripheral nerve injury: A comparison between Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells and their uses for neural regenerative therapies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) exhibits a much larger capacity for regeneration than the central nervous system (CNS). One reason for this difference is the difference in glial cell types between the two systems.

A chemoattractant role for NT-3 in proprioceptive axon guidance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2004
Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) is required for proprioceptive neuron survival. Deletion of the proapoptotic gene Bax in NT-3 knockout mice rescues these neurons and allows for examination of their axon growth in the absence of NT-3 signaling.
