Itch impairs the quality of life for many patients with dermatoses, especially atopic dermatitis (AD), and is frequently induced by a warm environment. To determine the mechanism underlying itch induction by warmth, we focused on artemin, a member of glial

The distribution of immunoreactivity for the ionotropic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits was mapped in the cochlear nucleus of postnatal day (P) 7, P14, P21, and P28 gerbils. Frozen sections and serial plastic sections of tissue were incubated with antibodies to

Cardiomyocytes express neurotrophin receptor TrkA that promotes survival following nerve growth factor (NGF) ligation. Whether TrkA also resides in cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) and underlies cardioprotection is unknown. To test whether CFs express TrkA that conveys paracrine signals to neighbor cardiomyocytes

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a survival factor required by a number of neuronal populations including most post-ganglionic sympathetic neurones. NGF has been detected and quantified in many tissues but there is little information regarding its cellular localization. Although it

Immunohistochemistry has been used to demonstrate the presence of nerve growth factor (NGF)-like immunoreactivity in normal and sectioned mouse sciatic nerves. In normal nerves, immunoreactive material was not visible unless a silk ligature had previously been applied to constrict the
