Lower motoneuron trophic factors and lower motoneuron death: effects and mechanisms
Aust Paediatr J.
1988.
Abstract
The characterization of trophic factors for the survival of embryonic montoneurons in vitro is described. Current knowledge and experiments in progress are reported. It seems that trophic support for motoneurons is derived from all the cells which they contact during development.
