Abstract:

BACKGROUND: P75 neurotrophin receptor holds low affinity, which not only plays an important role in nerve growth, development and maintenance of functional integrity, but also has a close relationship with bone tissue repair and stem cell enhancement.
OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress and value of P75 neurotrophin receptor in bone tissue repair and regeneration.
METHODS: A computer-based search of CBM, CNKI, PubMed and Elsevier was performed for retrieving articles concerning P75 neurotrophin receptor in bone tissue regeneration published from September 1987 to April 2018. The keywords were “P75, P75NTR, bone repair, bone regenerate, tooth development, facial nerve, stem cell” in Chinese and English, respectively. Totally 47 eligible articles were included in final analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: P75 neurotrophin receptor has been reported to not only promote tooth development and facial nerve repair, but also promote mineralization of bone tissue and shorten bone healing time. It also indirectly promotes bone healing by regulating the characteristics of stem cells. However, some researchers believe that apoptosis induced by P75 neurotrophin receptor may hinder fracture healing and even lead to fracture failure. Whether P75 neurotrophin receptor can promote bone repair or inhibit bone tissue repair needs further investigation. At present, its research is still limited to basic research, and there are few reports on its clinical application.
