RNAseq data indicate that in the human brain, most neurons co-express the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) receptor TrkB and the Neurotrophin-3 (NT3) receptor TrkC. Because NT3 can also activate TrkB and TrkB is expressed at higher levels compared with TrkC, it has been difficult thus far to...
Diabetic nephropathy is a major cause of end-stage renal disease. Kidney podocytes play a central role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. With their intercellular contacts they assemble part of the kidney filter. Many molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy are not...
To gain insight into the role of Runx3 in TrkC neurons we performed RNA-seq on E11.5 TrkC neurons isolated from cervical ganglia of Runx3-P2+/- and Runx3-P2-/- mice
