General description
The mammalian Trk family of receptor tyrosine kinases consists of three principle transmembrane proteins. The receptors can be activated by one or more of four neurotrophins - NGF, BDNF, NT3 and NT4/5. The TrkB family of transmembrane proteins serves as receptors for BDNF and NT-4/5 and these neurotrophins regulate biological responses such as cell survivial, proliferation and differentiation in normal and neoplastic neuronal cells.
Specificity
Other species have not yet been tested. It is expected to react with a wide range of mammalian species, based on the high sequence similarity.
trkB [BDNF/NT-4/5 growth factor receptor; tyrosine kinase receptor B]. The immunogen sequence was chosen to avoid cross reactivity with trkA or trkC.
Immunogen
Extracellular domain of the recombinant mouse receptor expressed in mammalian cells.
Application
Anti-TrkB Antibody is an antibody against TrkB for use in IH.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:3,000. The antibody has been used successfully on rat dorsal root ganglion and trigeminal ganglia in the rat spinal cord (cryostat free-floating sections). Suggested fixative is 4% paraformaldehyde.
Not suitable for Western blot.

Recent clinical trials of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) highlight the need for robust delivery technologies that will facilitate the successful application of these therapeutics to humans. Arguably, cell targeting by conjugation to cell-specific ligands provides a viable solution to this

This study investigated the Trk receptor family as a therapeutic target in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and assessed their prognostic significance. Global gene expression analysis was investigated in prospectively collected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas that had either undergone neoadjuvant chemoradiation or were

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a rare disease that is characterized by cerebellar dysfunction. Patients have progressive motor coordination impairment, and postmortem brain tissue reveals degeneration of cerebellar Purkinje cells and a reduced level of cerebellar brain-derived neurotrophic factor

The ability of intraspinal bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) transplants to elicit repair is thought to result from paracrine effects by secreted trophic factors including brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Here we used gene therapy to increase or silence BDNF production
