Different biological activities in conditioned media control the expression of a variety of neuropeptides in cultured sympathetic neurons.

Neuron - 1 Feb 1990

Abstract excerpt

An intriguing question regarding neuronal development is how neurons choose which neurotransmitter and/or peptide to express among over 40 candidates. We find that heart cell conditioned medium (CM) induces a number of neuropeptides and/or their precursor mRNAs, as well as acetylcholine, in cultu...
