Abstract excerpt
The expression of the gene encoding the neuroendocrine peptides neurotensin (NT) and neuromedin N is strictly dependent on simultaneous exposure to multiple inducers in PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. NT peptide and NT/N mRNA levels are synergistically induced by combinations of NGF, dexamethasone,...
