Abstract:
Nerve growth factor (NGF) belongs to a family of related target-derived proteins required for the survival and development of discrete neuronal populations in the central and peripheral nervous systems (Levi-Montalcini, 1987; Snider, 1994). Although initial observations led to the conclusion that the biological actions of neurotrophins are restricted to the nervous system (Thoenen, 1991; Raffioni et al. 1993), new evidence suggests that they, and in particular NGF, can also affect non-neuronal cells.
