Accumulation of TISl and TIS11 (Lim et al.: Oncogene 1:263-270, 1987) mRNAs in secondary cultures of rat neocortical astrocytes was much greater in response to tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA) than in response to either epidermal growth factor (EGF) or fibroblast growth factor (FGF). In contrast,

## Abstract We report the functional characterization of constitutive nitric oxide synthase(s) (NOS) such as neuronal and endothelial NOS in cultured human astrocytes. Exposure of cultured human astrocytes to 1 ΞΌM veratridine or 50 mM KCl produced a pronounced increase in a calmodulinβdependent NOS
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
