Effects of Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabidiol on Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase B Expression in the Adolescent Hippocampus. [PDF]
Introduction: Adolescence is an important phase in brain maturation, specifically it is a time during which weak synapses are pruned and neural pathways are strengthened. Adolescence is also a time of experimentation with drugs, including cannabis, which

Inhibition of Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A Signaling Negatively Regulates Megakaryopoiesis and induces Thrombopoiesis [PDF]
Neurotrophin signaling modulates the differentiation and function of mature blood cells. The expression of neurotrophin receptors and ligands by hematopoietic and stromal cells of the bone marrow indicates that neurotrophins have the potential to ...

A tropomyosin receptor kinase family protein, NTRK2 is a potential predictive biomarker for lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (NTRK2) is a member of the tropomyosin receptor kinase family associated with the tumor development. However, the detailed function of NTRK2 in lung cancer, especially in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), is still not ...

Blocking the tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) receptor inhibits pain behaviour in two rat models of osteoarthritis [PDF]
Objectives Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) mediates nociceptor sensitisation by nerve growth factor (NGF), but it is unknown whether selective TrkA inhibition will be an effective strategy for treating osteoarthritis (OA) pain.

An Intracellular Domain Fragment of the p75 Neurotrophin Receptor (p75NTR) Enhances Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A (TrkA) Receptor Function* [PDF]
Background: The mechanism by which the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) and TrkA interact to enhance neurotrophin signaling is unknown. Results: The p75NTR intracellular domain fragment, p75ICD, but not full-length p75NTR enhanced NGF binding to TrkA ...

The Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase MEG2 Regulates the Transport and Signal Transduction of Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A* [PDF]
Protein tyrosine phosphatase MEG2 (PTP-MEG2) is a unique nonreceptor tyrosine phosphatase associated with transport vesicles, where it facilitates membrane trafficking by dephosphorylation of the N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion factor.

Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A Expression on Merkel Cell Carcinoma Cells
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a malignant neuroendocrine skin tumor frequently associated with the Merkel cell polyomavirus. Immune checkpoint therapy showed remarkable results, although not all patients are responsive to this therapy. Anti-tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA)-targeted treatment has shown promising results in several tumor entities.To

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 ...
