complex(a(MESHC:"gambogic amide"), p(HGNC:NTRK1))
Gambogic amide binds selectively to TrkA (but not TrkB or TrkC), phosphorylates TrkA tyrosine residues, and activates the Akt and MAPK TrkA-mediated NGF signaling pathways. Gambogic amide has been demonstrated to ameliorate excitotoxic damage and promote neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells [116], making this a potential lead compound for chemical modification and clinical trial assessment.
