Growth regulation by nerve growth factor.

T Ikeno, G Guroff

    Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry
    |December 14, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    Researchers explored nerve growth factor (NGF) actions, identifying intracellular changes in neurons. This work proposes a mechanism for how NGF influences gene transcription, clarifying its biological roles.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Molecular Biology
    • Cell Biology

    Background:

    • Extensive data exists on nerve growth factor (NGF) actions, structure, receptors, and biosynthesis.
    • However, intracellular mechanisms mediating NGF's transcriptional effects remain unclear.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To consolidate findings on NGF-initiated intracellular changes.
    • To propose a potential mechanism for NGF's transcriptional regulation.

    Main Methods:

    • Review and synthesis of laboratory data over five years.
    • Analysis of intracellular events in sympathetic neurons and other NGF-sensitive systems.

    Main Results:

    • Identification of several NGF-initiated intracellular changes.
    • Development of a framework to understand these events.

    Conclusions:

    • A proposed mechanism for NGF's action on gene transcription is presented.
    • Further research is needed to fully elucidate NGF's intracellular signaling pathways.
