Stomach cancers make electrical connections with the nervous system to fuel spread, study finds
Some of these sensory neurons extended themselves deep into stomach tumors in response to a protein released by cancer cells called Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), drawing the cancer cells close to the ...

Antibodies designed for neurodegenerative-disease research
These cells are of embryonic origin and easily divide until treated with nerve growth factor (NGF), whereupon they terminally differentiate into neuron-like cells. In undifferentiated PC12 cells ...
