Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) signalling: targeted therapy in neurogenic tumours [PDF]
Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB), a transmembrane receptor protein, has been found to play a pivotal role in neural development. This protein is encoded by the neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (NTRK2) gene, and its abnormal activation caused ...

Regulation of Eosinophil Recruitment and Allergic Airway Inflammation by Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A. [PDF]
Abstract Eosinophilia is a hallmark of allergic airway inflammation (AAI). Identifying key molecules and specific signaling pathways that regulate eosinophilic inflammation is critical for development of novel therapeutics. Tropomycin receptor kinase A (TrkA) is the high-affinity receptor for nerve growth factor.

Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) biology and the role of NTRK gene fusions in cancer. [PDF]
The tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) family of receptor tyrosine kinases are encoded by NTRK genes and have a role in the development and normal functioning of the nervous system. Since the discovery of an oncogenic NTRK gene fusion in colorectal cancer in 1986, over 80 different fusion partner genes have been identified in a wide array of adult and ...

Sensory Neuron-Specific Deletion of Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A (TrkA) in Mice Abolishes Osteoarthritis (OA) Pain via NGF/TrkA Intervention of Peripheral Sensitization. [PDF]
Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA/NTRK1) is a high-affinity receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF), a potent pain mediator. NGF/TrkA signaling elevates synovial sensory neuronal distributions in the joints and causes osteoarthritis (OA) pain.

Tropomyosin receptor kinase: a novel target in screened neuroendocrine tumors [PDF]
Tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) inhibitors are investigated as a novel targeted therapy in various cancers. We investigated thein vitroeffects of the pan-Trk inhibitor GNF-5837 in human neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cells. The human neuroendocrine pancreatic BON1, bronchopulmonary NCI-H727 and ileal GOT1 cell lines were treated with GNF-5837 alone and ...

Identification and characterization of the Cucurbitacins, a novel class of small-molecule inhibitors of Tropomyosin receptor kinase a [PDF]
Background NGF-TrkA is well known to play a key role in propagating and sustaining pruritogenic signals, which form the pathology of chronic pruritus. Inhibition of NGF-TrkA is a known strategy for the treatment of pruritus.
