A protein with neurite-stimulating activity was isolated from bovine brain tissue lysosomal fraction. The organotypic culture of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of 10-11-day-old chick embryo was used to test neurite-stimulating activity. A cation protein (16,000 Da) has been purified using a combination of extraction of acid-soluble proteins, preparative electrophoresis, and affinity chromatography on heparin-sepharose. This protein is active at 2-4 ng/ml inducing extensive neurite outgrowth in this bioassay compared to the control one. Many properties distinguish this factor from other known neuronotrophic factors.

D002642 Chick Embryo The developmental entity of a fertilized chicken egg (ZYGOTE). The developmental process begins about 24 h before the egg is laid at the BLASTODISC, a small whitish spot on the surface of the EGG YOLK.

D005727 Ganglia, Spinal Sensory ganglia located on the dorsal spinal roots within the vertebral column. The spinal ganglion cells are pseudounipolar. The single primary branch bifurcates sending a peripheral process to carry sensory information from the periphery and a central branch which relays that information to the spinal cord or brain.
