Treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) produces a rapid and transient increase in calcium uptake into the cells. The increased uptake is maximal after 5 minutes of NGF treatment, but after 15 minutes of NGF treatment, no such increase can be observed. The effect of NGF is partially i
We have shown recently that 5-HT is an autocrine growth stimulatory factor for a cell line (BON) that is derived from a human pancreatic carcinoid tumor. This action is mediated by a 5-HT receptor-linked decrease of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP) production, but not mediated by a 5-HT receptor
Vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells comprise one of the primary targets of the sympathetic nervous system and have been shown to secrete nerve growth factor (NGF). There is increasing evidence that changes in the levels of NGF in the adult may underlie certain pathological conditions. To investigate
