Disease relevance of CTXN1

  • Cortexin (20 and 100 ng/ml), epithalamin (20 and 200 ng/ml), polypeptides M and P (2 and 20 ng/ml) had neurite-stimulating actions, evident on day 3 of dorsal root ganglion culture [1].
 

High impact information on CTXN1

  • The effects of cortexin, epithalamin, and synthetic peptides on the growth of processes in sensory neurons and on the development of fragments of cortical and subcortical brain structures were studied in organotypic cultures from 10-11-day chick embryos [1].
  • Addition of cortexin (100 ng/ml) or polypeptide M (20 ng/ml) to the culture medium of cerebral cortex explants stimulated explant development [1].
