In the present study, analysis of these proteins was conducted by immunohistochemistry and digital quantification in a series of 204 lung cancers of different histological subtypes versus 121 normal lung tissues. TrkA immunoreactivity was increased in squamous cell carcinoma compared with benign and other malignant lung cancer histological subtypes (p < 0.0001). NGF and proNGF were also increased in squamous cell carcinoma, as well as in adenocarcinoma (p < 0.0001). In contrast, p75NTR was increased across all lung cancer histological subtypes compared to normal lung (p < 0.0001). Sortilin was higher in adenocarcinoma and small cell carcinoma (p < 0.0001). Nerves in the tumor microenvironment were negative for TrkA, NGF, proNGF, p75NTR and sortilin. In conclusion, these data suggest a preferential therapeutic value of targeting the NGF-TrkA axis in squamous cell carcinomas of the lung.]]> Thu 24 Mar 2022 11:36:54 AEDT ]]> Secretome analysis of human schwann cells derived from malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45842 Mon 07 Nov 2022 14:10:04 AEDT ]]> The role of Schwann cells and nerves in pancreatic cancer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37621 Mon 01 Mar 2021 13:14:35 AEDT ]]>
