A p75NTR Pivoting Paradigm Propels Perspicacity
نویسنده
چکیده
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75(NTR)) is involved in numerous neuronal signaling paths but its fundamental signaling mechanisms are unknown. In this issue of Neuron, Vilar et al. show that p75NTR functions as a covalently crosslinked dimer to transduce NGF-induced signaling events.

Reduced Anxiety-Like Behavior and Altered Hippocampal Morphology in Female p75NTRexon IV−/− Mice
The presence of the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) in adult basal forebrain cholinergic neurons, precursor cells in the subventricular cell layer and the subgranular cell layer of the hippocampus has been linked to alterations in learning as well as anxiety- and depression- related behaviors. In contrast to previous studies performed in a p75NTR(exon III-/-) model still expressing the short...
متن کاملComplete pivoting strategy for the $IUL$ preconditioner obtained from Backward Factored APproximate INVerse process
In this paper, we use a complete pivoting strategy to compute the IUL preconditioner obtained as the by-product of the Backward Factored APproximate INVerse process. This pivoting is based on the complete pivoting strategy of the Backward IJK version of Gaussian Elimination process. There is a parameter $alpha$ to control the complete pivoting process. We have studied the effect of dif...
متن کاملThe design and analysis of bulk-synchronous parallel algorithms
The model of bulk-synchronous parallel (BSP) computation is an emerging paradigm of general-purpose parallel computing. This thesis presents a systematic approach to the design and analysis of BSP algorithms. We introduce an extension of the BSP model, called BSPRAM, which reconciles shared-memory style programming with e cient exploitation of data locality. The BSPRAM model can be optimally si...
متن کاملBrief Communication A Pro-Apoptotic Fragment of the p75 Neurotrophin Receptor Is Expressed in p75NTR Null Mice
The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) regulates neuronal survival, apoptosis, and growth. Recent studies have reported that disruption of Exon IV produces a null mouse lacking all p75NTR gene products (p75NTR ExonIV / ), whereas mice lacking p75NTR Exon III (p75NTR ExonIII / ) maintain expression of an alternatively spliced form of p75NTR (s-p75NTR). Here, we report that p75NTR ExonIV / mice e...
