Abstract excerpt
Nerve growth factor (NGF) supports the survival and biosynthetic activities of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons and is expressed by neurons within lateral aspects of this system including the horizontal limb of the diagonal bands and magnocellular preoptic areas. In the present study, colormet...
