Nerve growth factor (NGF) isolated from mouse submaxillary glands was injected three times weekly into late embryos and young larvae of Ambystoma muculatum for a period of three weeks, producing a n enlargement of the spinal ganglia owing to hyperplasia. This hyperplasia corresponds to the method of normal growth
