The present work was undertaken to study the effect of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a potent activator of the host inflammatory response, on the synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF) by newborn rat brain astrocytes. Treatment of primary rat astroglial cells cultured in chemically defined med
Although serotonin regulates synthesis of the neurotrophic factor S-100 beta by astrocytes, its ability to affect nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis has never been examined. We report here that there is a correlation between the effect of serotonin on cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) content a
## Abstract The present study examines the effects of selected hormones and growth factors on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis by goldfish vitellogenic and prematurational full‐grown ovarian follicles in vitro. The synthesis of DNA was assessed from the incorporation of [^3^H]‐thymidine after
## Abstract Reactive astrocytes surround amyloid depositions and degenerating neurons in Alzheimer's disease (AD). It has been previously shown that β‐amyloid peptide induces inflammatory‐like responses in astrocytes, leading to neuronal pathology. Reactive astrocytes up‐regulate nerve growth facto
