“The average outgrowth length was more than doubled by nerve growth factor , which also strongly increased the number of fibres , showing extensive branching.”

“Examination of the ganglia by histofluorescence indicates that NGF increases the bundles of fibres while dexamethasone increases the number of small intensely fluorescent cells.”
“In the presence of NGF a higher proportion of neurons produced fibres and the fibres were longer and slightly more branched than in control cultures.”

“Our results demonstrate a prominent ability of NGF to up‐regulate its receptors within fibres innervating the reticular thalamic nucleus, and show that this up‐regulation of NGF‐R is maintained throughout the lifetime.”
