  1. Magnetothermal Modulation of Nerve Growth

    Field, Hannah M.Massachusetts Institute of Technology2023

    … structures that are a critical target for nerve therapy. Calcium influx into neurons plays a key role in many processes necessary for axonal regeneratiton. Using magnetothermal modulation, we stimulate calcium uptake into DRG cells via TRPV1 ion channels, which are endogenously expressed …

    Mickelson, Alison, author, McCue, Patrick, advisor, Graham, James, advisor, Magunda, Forgivemore, committee memberColorado State University. Libraries2020

    Nerve growth factor-β (NGF-β) is a protein produced in the reproductive tract of camelids (camels, llamas, and alpacas) that has been identified as the ovulation inducing factor in seminal plasma. NGF-β from seminal plasma deposited into the reproductive tract of the female camelid acts …

  6. Nerve growth factor regulates Na+ transport in human airway epithelial cells

    Shimko, Michael J.2019

    Nerve growth factor (NGF) was discovered for its ability to enhance nerve growth, but recent evidence suggests there is a correlation between elevated NGF levels in the lung and airway diseases, including lung inflammatory diseases and respiratory virus infections. NGF can be produced and act upon …

    Lutz, MarionUniversität Würzburg

    Transforming growth factor-ß (TGF-ß) is a multifunctional cytokine that is engaged in regulating versatile cellular processes that are pivotal for development and homeostasis of most tissues in multicellular organisms. TGF-ß signal transduction is initially propagated by binding of TGF-ß to …

    Stewart, Jamie L.University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2019

    Nerve growth factor-β (NGF) is a protein found in the seminal plasma of a variety of mammalian species. While initially known for regulating neuronal survival and differentiation, it was later discovered to interact within the endocrine and reproductive systems as well. Most notable is its function …

  11. The role of nerve growth factor and p75 neurotrophin receptor in recovery from liver fibrosis

    Kendall, Timothy J.University of Southampton2008

    Rodent hepatic myofibroblasts are susceptible to nerve growth factor-mediated apoptosis through p75 neurotrophin receptor ligation. Hepatic myofibroblast apoptosis is critical to resolution of liver fibrosis. I show that human hepatic myofibroblasts exhibit differential responses to mature and …

    Farahvar, ArashUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2015

    We propose that decreased neural growth in hypothyroid animals and the robust rate of recovery is mediated by interactions of thyroid hormones with neurotrophins. We have found that hypothyroidism results in decreased hippocampal NGF levels, while up-regulating its receptors: the p75 neurotrophin …
