Abstract excerpt
We have studied the regulation of survival and serotonergic markers by neurotrophins and several trophically active cytokines in neurons cultured from the embryonic rat raphe region under defined conditions. At embryonic day 14, saturating concentrations of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, neurotrophin-3, neurotrophin-4 and basic fibroblast growth factor elicited a two- to 2.5-fold increase in numbers of...
