Radioactive short-chain fatty acids preferentially label glutamine relative to glutamate in brain due to compartmentation of glutamine and glutamate. To determine whether this phenomenon occurs in a single cell culture model, we examined the effect of fatty acid chain length on the synthesis as well

## 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
Treatment of PC12 cells with dexamethasone leads, in a period of days, to a 60% decrease in the binding of (125I)nerve growth factor. The decrease was maximal after 3 days of treatment with 1 microM dexamethasone, but some decrease was seen after 6 hr and at concentrations as low as 10 nM. The effec
## Abstract We studied whether nerve growth factor (NGF) can affect the membrane potential and conductance of PC12 cells. We demonstrate that NGF depolarizes the membrane of PC12 cells within a minute and by using transfected NIH 3T3โTrk and โp75 cells we show that both the high affinity NGF recept
