Nerve growth factor (NGF), signaling through its receptor tyrosine kinase, TrkA, is required for the survival of all small and many intermediate-sized murine dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons during development, accounting for 80% of the total DRG population. Surprisingly, NGF/TrkA-dependent neuron
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine whether mRNA of interleukinβ1Ξ², interleukinβ6, phospholipase A~2~, and nitric oxide synthase was expressed in the nerve root and dorsal root ganglion of an animal model in which exposure to the nucleus pulposus induced mechanical hyperalgesia, a
An increase in neurotrophic activity for the survival of dissociated sensory neurones has been found in the spinal cord of morphine dependent rats. This activity is not due to morphine itself and is not due to an increase in the nerve growth factor as antibodies to nerve growth factor fail to block
The relative contribution of intrinsic growth capacity versus extrinsic growth-promoting factors in determining the capacity of transected dorsal root axons to regenerate long distances was studied. L4 dorsal root axons regenerating into 4-cm peripheral nerve grafts on transected dorsal roots were c
