Increased Nerve Growth Factor Messenger RNA and Protein

Peripheral NGF mRNA and protein levels following
sympathectomy
It has been shown previously that peripheral sympathectomy
causes a dramatic increase in NGF levels in the denervated
organs
 (Yap et al., 1984; Kanakis et al., 1985; Korsching and
Thoenen, 1985).
