The influence of heregulins on human Schwann cell proliferation
1 Feb 1995
Abstract excerpt
The use of Schwann cell (SC) autotransplantation to influence neural repair in humans is dependent upon identifying mitogens that will effectively expand human Schwann cells (SCs) in culture. The recent purification and molecular cloning of glial growth factor (GGF), a potent mitogen for rat Schwann cells, has led to the recognition that a family of proteins (GGF/HRG/NDF/ARIA) are alternatively spliced products...
