Tropomyosin receptor kinase C (TRKC), also known as neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 3, is a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase family that mediates neurotrophin-activated signaling. TRKC is a functional coordinator in the activation of a host of signaling cascades including the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway that leads to cell differentiation. Most recently, it has been shown that TRKC levels in hippocampal neurons dictate TRKC-mediated synapse density. TRKC expression levels are known to play a role in tumorigenesis as well as neurodegenerative diseases. Studies involving TRKC may lead to further understanding of disease pathology and to therapeutic treatments.
