## Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF), brainβderived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophinβ3 (NT3) promote the function and/or survival of basal forebrain (BF) cholinergic neurons in vivo and in culture. The neurotrophin source is commonly thought to be targets of cholinergic neurons and the
Mouse 3T3 fibroblasts were genetically modified by transfection with a mammalian expression vector containing the rat p-nerve growth factor (NGF) gene. The transfected cell line, designated 3E, contains several hundred copies of the rat NGF gene and secretes high levels of biologically active NGF. P
## Abstract Previous studies suggest that oligodendrocytes express trophic molecules, including neurotrophins. These molecules have been shown to influence nearby neurons. To determine whether neuronal signals may, in turn, affect oligodendrocyteβderived trophins, we examined regulation of nerve gr
