Neurotrophins Induce Death of Hippocampal Neurons via the p75
Receptor

Nerve growth factor (NGF) and related neurotrophins influence
neuronal survival and differentiation via interactions with the trk
family of receptors. Recent studies have demonstrated that
neurotrophins may also induce cell death via the p75 receptor. The
importance and generality of neurotrophin-induced death in the brain
have not been defined but may play a critical role during development
and in disease-associated neuronal death. Here we demonstrate for the
first time that all four members of the neurotrophin family directly
elicit the death of hippocampal neurons via the p75 receptor. The
hippocampus is a complex structure with many different neuronal
subpopulations, and signals that influence neuronal death during
development may have a critical impact on the mature function of this
structure. In these studies we show that each neurotrophin causes the
death of hippocampal neurons expressing p75 but lacking the cognate trk
receptor. Neurotrophin-induced neuronal death is mediated by activation
of Jun kinase. These studies demonstrate that neurotrophins can
regulate death as well as survival of CNS neurons.
Key words:
