The PC12 rat pheochromocytoma cell line is a nerve growth factor (NGF) responsive line that is protected by NGF from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide induced peroxidation. In part, NGF protection of PC12 cells acts through a shift in oxidant-antioxidant metabolism by the enhancement of catalas

Changes in nerve growth factor (NGF) level and type of cells producing NGF were investigated in the rat brain after sustained cerebral embolism. The NGF level was determined by a two-site enzyme immunoassay specific for NGF. The cerebral cortex, striatum, and hippocampus of the embolized hemisphere
## Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophic factor that plays an important role in the differentiation and growth of neuronal cells. It is also regarded as an inflammatory mediator in nonβneuronal tissues under physiological stress conditions. The mechanisms of NGF production and its ro
The nerve growth factor protein (NGF) regulates neuronal cell death during the development of embryonic sensory and sympathetic neurons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). NGF protects the rat pheochromocytoma line PC12, a useful model of NGF responsive peripheral neurons, from hydrogen peroxide
