Complement gene expression in neuroblastoma and astrocytoma cell lines of human origin.

abstract：:Neurotrophic factors maintain and modulate neuron function in adults. We tested the hypothesis that neurotrophic factors rapidly alter intracellular calcium concentrations, thereby affecting neuron excitability. The majority of rat nodose neurons express TrkA, TrkB and TrkC receptor after 1 day in culture. Addition of...
