  • Title: Partial reversal of lesion-induced deficits in cortical cholinergic markers by nerve growth factor.
    Author: Haroutunian V, Kanof PD, Davis KL.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1986 Oct 29; 386(1-2):397-9. PubMed ID: 3779417.
    Abstract:
    Nerve growth factor (NGF) was injected into the lateral ventricle (5 micrograms on 4 occasions) of rats which had previously sustained ibotenic acid-induced lesions of the nucleus basalis of Meynert. Lesioned, but vehicle-injected and sham-lesioned and vehicle-injected rats were run as controls. Infusion of NGF led to a significant recovery of cortical choline acetyltransferase and acetylcholinesterase activity 6 weeks, but not two weeks after the lesion.
