Yang WH, Cheng CY, Chen MF, Wang TC (2018) Cell subpopulations overexpressing p75NTR have tumor-initiating properties in the c6 glioma cell line. 38(9):5183-5192. doi: 10.21873/anticanres.12841 PMID: 30194166

Objective: This study is focused on the possible role of p75NTR in glioma tumor initiation.

Summary: Cells with p75NTR overexpression demonstrated certain unique characteristics of tumor-initiating cells, such as neurosphere formation, high colony proliferation, and resistance to radio- and chemotherapy. With regard to the heterogeneous composition of glioma cells, p75NTR can be used as an alternative marker to identify a glioma subpopulation with tumor-initiating properties.

Kidney Int 94:937-950. doi: 10.1016/j.kint.2018.06.006 PMID: 30190172

Objective: To investigate the role of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT-2R) at the early stages of diabetic nephropathy.

Summary: Targeted AT-2R overexpression in renal cells may open new avenues to develop novel types of drugs preventing diabetic nephropathy.

Summary: The authors investigated the interactions of pro-survival and pro-apoptotic receptors in Programmed Cell Death (PCD) using the sympathetic nervous system as a model. They demonstrate that Ret, a receptor tyrosine kinase required for the survival of many neuronal populations, is restricted to a subset of degenerating neurons that rapidly undergo apoptosis.
