β¦ Synopsis
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is necessary for the growth and development of the sensory and sympathetic nervous systems. The high molecular weight form of NGF, 7s NGF, which is isolated from the male mouse submaxillary glands, is time consuming to isolate. We have designed a different method for the isolation of 7s NGF which is almost nine times more rapid and gives a much higher yield than the old method.

The growth of axons and dendrites during development and regeneration is regulated by cues in the environment. Many of these cues regulate the actin cytoskeleton of the protrusive structures (like filopodia) of the growth cone that are essential for detecting and responding to cues. Nerve growth fac
A simple method for protein recovery from gel slices following polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is proposed which requires neither additional devices nor much skill. The method is based on reversed electrophoresis using a discontinuous conductivity gradient which is in turn maintained by a gradien
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a potential treatment for cholinergic dysfunction associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). In rats, NGF activates gene expression of the acetylcholine synthetic enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and prevents age-and lesion-induced degeneration of basal forebrain (
