Nerve growth factor in human semen: Effect of nerve growth factor on the normozoospermic men during cryopreservation process
Objective(s):Althoughroutinely applied in assisted reproductive technology, human sperm cryopreservation is not a completely successful procedure. Adverse effects of cryopreservation on the fertilization capacity, motility, morphology, and viability of spermatozoa have been proven; cryopreservation has also shown a role in sperm DNA fragmentation and infertility. The post-thaw survival of sperm...
متن کاملNerve growth factor in neuronal development and maintenance.
One of the major roles of nerve growth factor (NGF) is to mediate the selective survival of a proportion of the developing sympathetic and sensory neurones as they innervate their particular target tissues. The underlying basis of this phenomenon is the synthesis of limited amounts of NGF in the target, its secretion around, and uptake by, the nerve terminal and its retrograde transport along a...
متن کاملTrkA cross-linking mimics neuronal responses to nerve growth factor.
TrkA, a tyrosine kinase receptor, is an essential component of the nerve growth factor (NGF) response pathway. The binding of NGF to the receptor induces receptor autophosphorylation and activation of intracellular signaling pathways, resulting in diverse biological effects. We prepared polyclonal antibodies against the entire extracellular domain of rat trkA produced using a baculovirus expres...
متن کاملGlial-derived Nerve Growth Factor (gdnf) Mediates Neuronal Phenotypic Changes
Introduction Until recently, chronic nerve compression (CNC) injuries have been relatively understudied. Recent studies have shown that CNC injury induces Schwann cell proliferation and apoptosis with no morphologic evidence of axonal injury (1,2). It has also been shown that the axon undergoes a sprouting response within the zone of compression that is readily apparent by two weeks following i...
متن کاملCo-expression of recombinant human nerve growth factor with trigger factor chaperone in E. coli
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophic factor that is functional in the survival, maintenance and differentiation of nervous system cells. This protein has three subunits, of which the beta subunit has the main activity. Its structure consists of a cysteine knot motif made up of beta strands linked by disulfide bonds. It can be used as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of many diseases....
