Nerve growth factors and the control of neurotransmitter phenotype selection in the mammalian central nervous system.

Abstract excerpt

Determination of neurotransmitter phenotype in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) has been intensively characterized. However, relatively little is known about the underlying molecular and biochemical events involved in determination of transmitter phenotype in the central nervous system (CNS). It has been well established that nerve growth factors regulate cell growth and differentiation. They are increasingly...
