Disease relevance of Ntrk2

 

Psychiatry related information on Ntrk2

  • We examined the time course of BDNF and TrkB expression after 1, 3, 5, 7 or 14 days in one of three conditions: (1) an "acrobatic" motor skill learning condition (AC), (2) a motor activity condition (moderately paced running on a flat track; MC) and (3) an inactive social-only control (SC) that served as a baseline group [6].
 

High impact information on Ntrk2

  • Whereas TrkB.t1-infected rats showed normal within-session extinction, their retention of extinction was impaired, suggesting that amygdala TrkB activation is required for the consolidation of stable extinction memories [4].
  • In addition, cAMP facilitated trafficking of TrkB to dendritic spines, possibly by promoting its interaction with synaptic scaffolding protein PSD-95 [7].
  • Actions of the truncated TrkB receptor did not involve unmasking of endogenous TrkC signaling [8].
  • These results indicate a causal link of synapsin phosphorylation via BDNF, TrkB receptors and MAP kinase with downstream facilitation of neurotransmitter release [9].
  • We transfected ferret visual cortical slices with full-length and truncated TrkB receptors to examine their roles in regulating cortical dendrite development [8].

Associations of Ntrk2 with chemical compounds

  • However, the increased amplitude was postsynaptic in origin because it was selectively blocked by intracellular injection of the tyrosine kinase receptor (Ntrk2/TrkB) inhibitor K-252a and potentiated by injection of the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid [18].
  • BDNF treatment of high TrkB-expressing TB8 (Tet-) and TB3 (Tet-) cells blocked drug-induced cell death in a dose-dependent manner [1].
  • Astrocytes in culture express the full-length Trk-B receptor and respond to brain derived neurotrophic factor by changing intracellular calcium levels: effect of ethanol exposure in rats [19].
  • In Shc signaling, NGF, but not BDNF, displayed interactions between Trk and Shc in a phenylarsine oxide (PAO; an inhibitor of tyrosine phosphatase)-dependent manner in TrkB-expressing PC12 cells [20].
  • We suggest that NMDA activates the TrkB receptor via a BDNF autocrine loop, resulting in neuronal survival [5].
 

Physical interactions of Ntrk2

  • BDNF binds to TrkB, a receptor tyrosine kinase, which results in the activation of a variety of signaling molecules to exert the various functions of BDNF [21].
  • The transcellular induction of NPY suggests a source-to-sink model for axonal transport and a local cortical redistribution of TrkB ligands to interneurons competent for NPY expression [22].
  • Down-regulation of the neurotrophin receptor TrkB following ligand binding. Evidence for an involvement of the proteasome and differential regulation of TrkA and TrkB [23].
  • Fyn was coimmunoprecipitated with TrkB and NR2B, and this association was increased in well-trained rats compared with control animals [24].
  • A rapid activation of TrkB (1-8 h) was also observed in the spinal cord after axotomy,while the amount of TrkB co-precipitating with NT-4 was markedly lower after axotomy [25].
 

Enzymatic interactions of Ntrk2

  • We conclude that phospholipase C-gamma 1 is directly phosphorylated by TrkB [26].
  • The results showed that the fluorescent intensity of TrkB and phosphorylated TrkB in the cytoplasm and the fluorescent intensity of MARK in both cytoplasma and nucleus of the neurons were significantly increased in the presence of BDNF [3].
 

Regulatory relationships of Ntrk2

  • In addition, thymus cells expressed neuronal TrkA II mRNA and spleen cells expressed truncated TrkB mRNA [27].
  • Indeed, TrkB-expressing inhibitory SGS neurons responded to cortical NT-4/5 infusion with somatic growth [28].
  • NT-3 induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of TrkB in naive cells, but not in differentiated cells [29].
  • Ectopic expression of a chimeric colony-stimulating factor-1/TrkB-receptor promotes CSF-1-dependent survival of cultured sympathetic neurons [30].
 

Other interactions of Ntrk2

  • Together, these data suggest that an antagonistic interplay of p75NTR and TrkB receptor signaling, possibly modulated by selective BDNF processing, mediates SGN death in vivo [13].
  • We provide in vivo evidence demonstrating that degenerating SGNs induced an augmented p75NTR expression and a coincident reduction of TrkB expression in their peripheral processes [13].
  • We found that similar to sympathetic neurons, CEP-11004 increased the levels of the Trk receptor expressed in CGNs, TrkB [31].
  • In addition, NT-3 was able to phosphorylate the BDNF receptor, TrkB but only at higher concentration (50 ng/ml) [32].
  • Following activation of TrkB, phospholipase C-gamma 1 is phosphorylated on Tyr-783, Tyr-771, and Tyr-1254 [26].
