## Abstract JC virus (JCV), the causative agent of a human demyelinating disease, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, has a very narrow host range. Cells permissive for infection by JCV have been essentially limited to primary human fetal glial cells, which are difficult to obtain and maint
## Abstract The nerve growth factor protein (NGF) stimulates neurite outgrowth from embryonic sensory ganglia and sympathetic ganglia at all stages of development. In addition, NGF is required for the maintenance of the differentiated state in adult sympathetic ganglia. A clonal cell line, IMR‐32,
## Abstract Cdk5, a member of the cyclin‐dependent kinase (cdk) family, is predominately active in neurons, where its activity is tightly regulated by the binding of its neuronal activators p35 and p39. Cdk5 is implicated in regulating the proper neuronal function; a deregulation of cdk5 has been f
## Abstract TRPA1 and TRPM8 are transient receptor potential (TRP) channels involved in sensory perception. TRPA1 is a non‐selective calcium permeable channel activated by irritants and proalgesic agents. TRPM8 reacts to chemical cooling agents such as menthol. The human neuroblastoma cell line IMR
The gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) response profiles of IMR-32 human neuroblastoma cells were examined using whole-cell patch clamp and RT-PCR techniques. GABA activated a concentration-dependent and bicuculline-sensitive current, and RT-PCR revealed the expression of multiple GABA(A) receptor subun
