Abstract
The growth of new axonal sprouts was studied from transected, ascending noradrenergic axons into transplants of iris tissue in the caudal hypothalamus of the rat. A single intraventricular injection of nerve growth factor, given at the time of axonal damage, resulted in an increased formation and growth of new noradrenaline sprouts 7 days later. The effect seemed to be proportional to the administered dose of nerve growth factor.Entities:
