✦ Synopsis


We studied the expression of neurosynthesis and nerve endings. Following acoustic trophins and their Trk receptors in the chicken cotrauma, regenerated hair cells acquired BDNF mRNA chlea. Based on in situ hybridization, brain-derived expression at early stages of differentiation. Trunneurotrophic factor (BDNF) is the major neurocated trkB mRNA was lost from supporting cells that trophin there, in contrast to the mammalian cochlea, regenerated into hair cells. High levels of BDNF where neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) predominates. NT-3 mRNA persisted in surviving hair cells and trkB mRNA labeling was weak and found only during a mRNA in cochlear neurons after noise exposure. short time period in the early cochles. During em-These results suggest that in the avian cochlea, periphbryogenesis, BDNF mRNA was first seen in early diferal target-derived BDNF contributes to the onset and ferentiating hair cells. Afferent cochlear neurons exmaintenance of hearing function by supporting neupressed trkB mRNA from the early stages of ganglioronal survival and regulating the (re)innervation progenesis onward. In accordance, in vitro, BDNF cess.

Potential roles of trophins in the normal and injured spinal cord are largely undefined. However, a number of recent studies suggest that adult spinal cord expresses neurotrophin receptors and responds to the neurotrophins, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin 3 (NT3), particula

Recently it has been observed that a subpopulation of gut endocrine cells in vertebrates express Trk-like proteins, suggesting that neurotrophins could regulate the synthesis and storage of amines and peptides of these cells. Nevertheless, the peptides and amines present in the endocrine cells that

Neurotrophins and their cognate receptors are critical to normal nervous system development. Trk receptors are high-affinity receptors for nerve-growth factor (trkA), brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophin-4/5 (trkB), and neurotrophin-3 (trkC). We examine the expression of these three ne
