TGF-alpha induces a stationary, radial-glia like phenotype in cultured astrocytes.

Brain research bulletin - 1 Sept 2001

Zhou R, Wu X, Skalli O

Abstract excerpt

Transgenic mice studies have suggested that transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) influences the postnatal differentiation of astrocytes. To understand the role of TGF-alpha during astrocytic differentiation, it is important to determine how this factor affects astrocytes in the absence of other influences. We have thus examined in vitro under serum-free medium conditions the effect of TGF-alpha on the...
