The T. cruzi trans-sialidase induces PC12 cell differentiation via MAPK/ERK pathway.

abstract：:ErbBs are a family of receptors involved in the trophic maintenance of Schwann cells. Little is known about their expression changes during peripheral nerve regeneration. The aim of this study was thus to investigate variations in ErbBs after end-to-end and end-to-side nerve regeneration in the rat median nerve model....
