A rapid and sensitive nonradioactive ligand binding assay for identifying the agonists and antagonists of epidermal growth factor receptor is described. The assay is easy to perform, has a within-assay error of less than 15%, and does not use radioactive substances. Nonspecific binding is less than

Previous studies suggest that ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) may represent one of the extrinsic signals controlling the development of vertebrate retinal photoreceptors. In dissociated cultures from embryonic chick retina, exogenously applied CNTF has been shown to act on postmitotic rod precurs
To determine if ciliary neuro-CNTFRa, however, the increase in CNTF mRNA was trophic factor (CNTF) is involved in the response to evident both rostral and caudal to the lesion. Levels spinal cord injury, we studied changes in the expression of CNTF and that of its receptor, CNTF-receptor of both CNT
We have previously observed that deprivation caused a significant up-regulation of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) can prevent the CNTFRa mRNA in the BC/LA, thigh, and spinal cord degeneration of androgen-sensitive perineal motoneuof male fetuses. After castration in adulthood, rons and their tar
There is evidence that ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is involved in reactive changes following lesions of the nervous system. To investigate, whether differences in the regulation of CNTF and CNTF receptor alpha (CNTFRalpha) contribute to the differences in PNS and CNS responses to injury, we h
