Tradeoffs between immune function and childhood growth among Amazonian forager-horticulturalists.

abstract：:The molecular size and stability of the nerve growth factor (NGF) secreted in culture by L cells have been studied by sedimentation and gel filtration chromatography. Results indicate that L cell NGF has a molecular weight of 160,000. It contains as part of its structure a protein component that is biologically, immun...
