✦ Synopsis


We have recently reported the immunolocalization of nerve growth factor (NGF) in mouse kidney by light microscopy. In the present study, we have investigated the ultrastructural localization of NGF by the preembedding immunoperoxidase method for electron microscopy. NGF immunoreactivity was present in the connecting tubule cells of the distal nephron. These cells showed immunostaining associated with the Golgi complex, vesicles, rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and polyribosomes. The intercalated cells, in contrast, lacked immunoreactivity.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of direct administration of nerve growth factor (NGF) into an epineural conduit across a short nerve gap (10 mm) in a rabbit sciatic nerve model. The animals were divided into two groups. In group 1, n = 6, a 10-mm defect was created in the sciati
