Disease relevance of Ntf5

  • The neurotrophins acting on the developing placode-derived visceral nodose/petrosal (N/P) ganglion neurons are BDNF, NT3, and NT4 [1].
  • In this study, we used vaccinia virus infection and transfection methods to monitor the processing and sorting of neurotrophin-4 (NT-4) in AtT-20 cells, which have been used as a model for the sorting of secretory proteins in neurons [2].
  • Neurotrophins play a protective role during cerebral ischemia, and mice lacking both alleles for neurotrophin 4 (Nt4-/- ) or deficient in a single allele for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (Bdnf+/-) have increased susceptibility to cerebral ischemia [3].
  • Homozygous Bdnfnt4-ki/nt4-ki mice showed reduced body weight, infertility and skin lesions, suggesting unique biological activities of NT4 in vivo [4].
  • These results suggest that the NT-4 gene knock-in, probably involving increased intestinal IGLE innervation, altered short-term feeding, in particular by enhancing satiation and sensitivity to CCK, whereas long-term control of daily intake and body weight was unaffected [5].

Associations of Ntf5 with chemical compounds

  • In skin organ culture of C57BL/6 mice, BDNF, NT-3, and NT-4 all significantly increased 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine incorporation into epidermal keratinocytes [21].
  • This suggests that the NT-4 and BDNF-induced metabolic rate changes are associated with autophosphorylation of the tyrosine protein kinase residues [22].
  • METHODS: Retinal development in wild-type, NT-4/5 knockout (KO), and NT-4/5:BDNF double-KO mice was histologically examined from postnatal day 0 (P0) to P90 [23].
  • The NT-4/5-induced neuronal death was largely attenuated by addition of MK-801, indicating a critical role for NMDA receptors [24].
  • This fusion toxin has a deduced molecular mass of 60,163 and is formed by joining the first 389 amino acids of diptheria toxin to amino acids 1-130 of mature rat NT-4/5, using an NH2-terminal bridge of 33 additional amino acids including six consecutive histidines [25].
 

Physical interactions of Ntf5

  • We conclude that NT4 may exert trophic actions on all types of taste bud cells by binding to their TrkB receptors, and NT3 may also have a similar, though negligible role [26].
 

Regulatory relationships of Ntf5

  • Exposure of mature cortical cultures for 48 h to NT-4/5 induced neuronal death through TrkB activation [24].
  • Their inhibitors blocked NR2A induction and phosphorylation as well as neuronal death induced by NT-4/5 [24].
