## Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF) has previously been shown to increase the rate of adhesion of PCβ12 pheochromocytoma cells to cell culture dishes. This increase in the rate of adhesion was postulated to be important in NGFβmediated neurite outgrowth. We now report that epidermal growth factor

The PC12 cell line displays cell surface receptors for both nerve growth factor (NGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). It has been previously shown that the lectin wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) alters the properties of NGF receptors on these cells. We now report that preincubations with either WGA o
The lipid biomediator lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) elicits a unique response in hippocampal neurons, LPA induces neuronal apoptosis. This study explores the effects of LPA on cells with neuronal properties, nerve growth factor-differentiated PC6 cells, a clone of PC12 cells. LPA induced apoptosis in
## Abstract Gas7, a growth arrestβspecific gene originally isolated from serumβstarved mouse fibroblast cells, is expressed in vivo predominantly in the brain and is required for neurite formation in cultured mouse cerebellar neurons (Ju et al. [ 1998] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 95: 11423β11428). H
## Abstract Glucocorticoids and nerve growth factor (NGF) have been shown to have antagonistic effects on chromaffin cells in vivo. Here we determined the effect of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, on levels of mRNA for the nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) in rat PC12 pheochromocytom
