We have identified and characterized a calcium-dependent metalloproteinase which is induced in rat pheochromocytoma cells (PC 12 cells) during differentiation with nerve growth factor (NGF). Assays of proteolytic activity in media from differentiated PC12 cell cultures revealed a NGF-dependent incre

## Abstract Glucocorticoids and nerve growth factor (NGF) have been shown to have antagonistic effects on chromaffin cells in vivo. Here we determined the effect of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, on levels of mRNA for the nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) in rat PC12 pheochromocytom
Radioactive short-chain fatty acids preferentially label glutamine relative to glutamate in brain due to compartmentation of glutamine and glutamate. To determine whether this phenomenon occurs in a single cell culture model, we examined the effect of fatty acid chain length on the synthesis as well
In an effort to understand molecular mechanisms by which nerve growth factor (NGF) regulates gene expression, we have isolated a full-length rat cDNA clone encoding ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and utilized this probe to identify and examine the transcriptionally active, NGF inducible ODC gene in r
