Overexpression of p75NTR in Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: a New Biomarker of Cancer Differentiation?

2021-03-09

Abstract excerpt

Several studies have demonstrated that the p75NTR low-affinity receptor of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), is produced in abnormally large amounts in several human cancer types. However, the role of p75NTR varies substantially depending on cell context, so that a dual role of this receptor protein in tumor cell survival and invasion, as well as cell death, has been supported in recent studies. Herein we explored for th...
