摘要
The response of 2 distinct populations of neural crest-derived sensory neurons to nerve growth factor (NGF) and other neurotrophic activities present in extracts of chick tissues were studied in vitro. Dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and the dorso-medial part of the trigeminal ganglion (DM-TG) from embryonic chicks of 6-11 days of incubations (E6-E11) were grown as either explant or dissociated neuron-enriched cultures. Over the age range studied NGF promoted survival and pronounced neurite outgrowth from both DRG and DM-TG neurons. Whilst extracts of chick eye, liver and spinal cord also elicited a marked response from E8 and older DRG neurons, DM-TG neurons were almost entirely unresponsive to the neurotrophic activity of these extracts.
