Abstract:
:Although traditionally little attention has been paid to the interplay between neurotrophins and the cell cycle, a number of recent findings suggest an important role for these growth factors in the regulation of this aspect of the cellular physiology. In this article, we review the evidence from a number of studies that neurotrophins can influence cell cycle progression or mitotic cycle arrest both in the nervous system as well as in other cell types. The contrary response of different cells to neurotrophins in terms of cell cycle regulation derives in part from the fact that these factors use two different receptor types to transmit their signals: members of the Trk family and the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR). With this in mind, we outline the current state of our knowledge regarding the molecular basis underlying the control of cell cycle progression by neurotrophins. We focus our interest on the receptors that transduce these signals and, in particular, the striking finding that p75NTR interacts with proteins that can promote mitotic cycle arrest. Finally, we discuss the mechanisms of cell death mediated by p75NTR in the context of cell cycle regulation.
