## Abstract Glucocorticoids and nerve growth factor (NGF) have been shown to have antagonistic effects on chromaffin cells in vivo. Here we determined the effect of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, on levels of mRNA for the nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) in rat PC12 pheochromocytom

## Abstract Contemporary strategies in tooth repair markedly rely on the newest findings on the cellular and biological components of dental development. Among several identified bioactive molecules, neurotrophins were recently proposed to affect tooth germ cell proliferation, differentiation, and
Mutant PC12 cell clones (PC84 cells) were obtained by transfection with nerve growth factor (NGF) cDNA. These cells secreted active NGF, extended short processes, and proliferated faster than the parental PC12 cells. These features are of great interest because the parental PC12 cells cease prolifer
