Abstract excerpt
Nerve growth factor (NGF) induced differentiation of primary and permanent neuronal cell cultures is accompanied by a rapid and transient induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA and enzymatic activity; a similar ODC induction accompanies mitogenic effectors in many additional cell types. In an effort to assess the role of ODC activity in neuronal cell biology, we have used the ODC suicide substrate...
