Abstract excerpt
In this report, we describe the isolation of a cell line, Rolf B1.T, from cultures of adult rat olfactory nerve cells. Rolf B1.T cells have an antigenic phenotype which closely resembles that of olfactory ensheathing cells. In routine culture conditions, Rolf B1.T cells constitutively express glial fibrillary acidic protein, S1OO, the low-affinity neurotrophin receptor p75 NGF, laminin, tenascin, and the neural...
