Abstract
The growth, differentiation, and maintenance of the sympathetic nerve cells were found to depend upon a specific protein factor.[long dash]The chemical, biological, and immunological properties of this factor are discussed in connection with the recent findings of the presence of the growth factor in the sympathetic nerve cells of a variety of mammals, including man.Keywords
