Morphometric Study of Fetal Brain Transplants in the Insular Cortex and NGF Effects on Neuronal and Glial Development

Homotopic grafts supplemented with nerve growth factor (NGF) speed the recovery from learning deficits observed following electrolytic lesions of the insular cortex in rats. NGF also reduces the time in which the activity of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is first detected inside the graft by hist...
