Abstract excerpt
Cells of embryonic (E12-16) rat cerebral cortex were cultured for 7 days in vitro (7DIV) in the presence of either brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), with or without dopamine (DA). Chronic treatment of cells with DA or BDNF alone increased (300% and 600%, respectively) the number of the cells that expressed tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). However, the combination of BDNF and...
