## Abstract Nerve regeneration after complete transection does not allow for adequate functional recovery mainly because of lack of selectivity of target reinnervation. We assessed if transplanting a nerve segment from either motor or sensory origin may improve specifically the accuracy of sensory

The response to nerve growth factor (NGF) of two sensory neuron populations of the trigeminal nerve was studied in chick embryos. NGF promoted neuronal survival and cellular hypertrophy in the Gasserian ganglia with minimal effect on the neuron population of the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus. NGF
The effect of lumbar spinal nerve (SN) transection on estimates of neuron number was investigated in the dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) of juvenile bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana). SN8 and SN10 were transected on one side, and SN9 was left intact. Two weeks after nerve injury, estimates of neuron number in
