✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The neurotrophin receptor p75 (p75NTR) is expressed by both neurons and glia. Nerve injury triggers up‐regulation of p75NTR in Schwann cells (SC) but not in central glia. In contrast to neuronal p75NTR, which mediates negative signals from myelin‐associated proteins resulting in neurite collapse, glial p75NTR may play a positive role in nerve regeneration by forming neurotrophin chemoattractant gradients or by competitively antagonizing the NOGO/NgR/LINGO‐1 signal through cell–cell contact or regulated intramembranous proteolysis (RIP) of p75NTR. This piece presents some recent evidence supporting this hypothesis. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

The extracerebral vasculature receives a postnatal innervation of noradrenergic sympathetic axons and nociceptive sensory axons. These axons are responsive to the neurotrophin nerve growth factor (NGF), in that they possess the transmembrane receptors p140 proto-trkA and p75 neurotrophin receptor (N

## Abstract Several recent reports support a dual role of p75^NTR^ in cell death, as well as survival, depending on the physiological or developmental stage of the cells. Coexpression of the TrkA receptor with p75^NTR^ further enhances the complexity of nerve growth factor (NGF) signaling. Recent i
