Neurotrophin‐3 down‐regulates trkA mRNA, NGF high‐affinity binding sites, and associated phenotype in adult DRG neurons
1 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) binds to multiple trks, not only its initially identified receptor trkC. Recent studies in our laboratory show that NT-3 negatively regulates nociceptive phenotype associated with the trkA subpopulation. Due to the extensive overlap in trkA and trkC expression it is uncertain whether there is a direct influence of NT-3 on trkA in adult sensory neurons. Thus, the aim of this study was to...
