Dissociated neurons from the neural tube containing the trigeminal motor nucleus from early chick embryos were cultured on laminin or collagen-polyornithine substrates, with and without nerve growth factor (NGF). Control cultures were grown in similar conditions with cytochrome-C. It was found that

## Abstract The sensitivity of the rat nervous system to malignant transformation by ethylnitrosourea (ENU) is a function of age at treatment. From late gestation, nervous structures decrease in sensitivity with age as nonβneural structures increase in susceptibility. There is a decrease in the pro
## Abstract Dorsal root ganglionic cells, from 8βday chick embryo, undergo anabolic declines when incubated in vitro without Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) or other supportive agents. To determine whether the decline could be opposed by delayed administration of the NGF, cells were incubated without the
## Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF) is required for the growth and development of sensory and sympathetic neurons. Incubation of chick dorsal root ganglionic cells without NGF resulted in a decrease of active (Na^+^, K^+^βpumpβmediated) K^+^ influx over a period of several hours. Addition of NGF
## Abstract In peripheral nerve regeneration or remyelination, immature Schwann cells expressing p75^NTR^ play cardinal roles in the support and regeneration of axons (Griffin JW, Hoffman PN. Peripheral Neuropathy 361β376, 1993). Only one of four to six Schwann cells participate in remyelination of
During retinal differentiation, fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) expression increases in retinal neurons following the sequential appearance of the neuronal layers. The function of the developmental increase of endogenous FGF2 in the developing chick retina was investigated by using an antisense st
