Psoriatic keratinocytes express high levels of nerve growth factor.
Many investigators have reported proliferation of terminal cutaneous nerves and upregulation of various neuropeptides (substance P, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, calcitonin gene-related peptide) in psoriatic lesions. Nerve growth factor promotes growth of nerves and causes upregulation of neuropeptides like substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide. In this study we investigated the ...
متن کاملDoes Schwann cell dedifferentiation originate dermal neurofibromas?
Dermal neurofibromas are characteristic of neurofibromatosis type one (NF1), and their developmental origin still unsolved. Although NF1 loss is required for neurofibroma initiation, some features of these benign tumors resemble a skin injury state and cutaneous trauma or other insults might support tumor development. Since adult terminal Schwann cells ensheathing nerve endings are able to dedi...
متن کاملIntroduction to Schwann Cell Dedifferentiation and Plasticity
The peripheral nerves consist of sensory nerves that transmit somatic and visceral afferent information to the brain via the spinal cord and motor nerves that convey efferent outputs of the brain to effector organs such as skeletal muscles and glands. The nerve conduction velocities (NCV) of mammalian peripheral nerves range from 10 m/s to 150 m/s, depending on the type of information being tra...
متن کاملMicroRNAs modulate Schwann cell response to nerve injury by reinforcing transcriptional silencing of dedifferentiation-related genes.
In the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells (SCs) surrounding damaged axons undergo an injury response that is driven by an intricate transcriptional program and is critical for nerve regeneration. To examine whether these injury-induced changes in SCs are also regulated posttranscriptionally by miRNAs, we performed miRNA expression profiling of mouse sciatic nerve distal segment after crus...
متن کاملMatrix metalloproteinase inhibition enhances the rate of nerve regeneration in vivo by promoting dedifferentiation and mitosis of supporting schwann cells.
After peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells (SCs) vigorously divide to survive and produce a sufficient number of cells to accompany regenerating axons. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have emerged as modulators of SC signaling and mitosis. Using a 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation assay, we previously found that a broad-spectrum MMP inhibitor (MMPi), GM6001 (or ilomastat), enhanced...
