Neuron 50:219-32. 2006..These results indicate that p75-mediated apoptosis requires gamma-secretase dependent release of its ICD, which facilitates nuclear translocation of NRIF...
Pharmacologically diverse antidepressants rapidly activate brain-derived neurotrophic factor receptor TrkB and induce phospholipase-Cgamma signaling pathways in mouse brainTomi Rantamäki
Neuroscience Center, University of Helsinki, PO Box 56, 00014 Helsinki, Finland
Neuropsychopharmacology 32:2152-62. 2007..In conclusion, our data suggest that rapid activation of the TrkB neurotrophin receptor and PLCgamma1 signaling is a common mechanism for all antidepressant drugs...
Developmental and activity-dependent regulation of ARMS/Kidins220 in cultured rat hippocampal neuronsRosa Y Cortés
Department of Cell Biology and Neuroscience, Rutgers University, Nelson Laboratories, Piscataway, New Jersey
Dev Neurobiol 67:1687-98. 2007..We find that ARMS/Kidins220 may function in neuronal development as an indicator and potentially as a homeostatic regulator of overall synaptic strength in hippocampal neurons...
Adenosine receptor A2A-R contributes to motoneuron survival by transactivating the tyrosine kinase receptor TrkBStefan Wiese
Institute for Clinical Neurobiology, University of Wurzburg, Josef Schneider Strasse 11, D 97080 Wurzburg, Germany

Prevention of apoptotic but not necrotic cell death following neuronal injury by neurotrophins signaling through the tyrosine kinase receptorDong H Kim
Department of Neurosurgery, Brigham and Women s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA
J Neurosurg 100:79-87. 2004..The goal of this study was to determine the effect of neurotrophin treatment on each of these processes following injury and to characterize the receptor(s) required...
p75 neurotrophin receptor regulates tissue fibrosis through inhibition of plasminogen activation via a PDE4/cAMP/PKA pathwayBenjamin D Sachs
Department of Pharmacology, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
J Cell Biol 177:1119-32. 2007..Our results reveal a novel pathogenic mechanism by which p75(NTR) regulates degradation of cAMP and perpetuates scar formation after injury...
Motors, adaptors, and receptors: key elements of neuronal transportGiampietro Schiavo
Cancer Research UK London Research Institute, Lincoln's Inn Fields Laboratories, United Kingdom
J Neurobiol 58:161-3. 2004
{alpha}-Syntrophin regulates ARMS localization at the neuromuscular junction and enhances EphA4 signaling in an ARMS-dependent mannerShuo Luo
Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Neuroscience Center and Biotechnology Research Institute, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Clear Water Bay, Hong Kong, China
J Cell Biol 169:813-24. 2005..Altogether, our findings suggest that ARMS may play an important role in regulating postsynaptic signal transduction through the syntrophin-mediated localization of receptor tyrosine kinases such as EphA4...
