Semi-quantitative analysis of NT-3 protein shows a significant decrease in mature NT-3 in the pineal gland and extracerebral bv, and a significant increase in the external carotid. No significant change in the 50 kDa precursor was noted following denervation only. When NGF followed the sympathectomy, NT-3 levels remained depressed in the pineal gland and extracerebral bv, and also were significantly decreased in the external carotid artery. Note the lack of the 50 kDa precursor in the external carotid. 15 μg total protein loaded. NT-3 = human recombinant NT-3 (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). (*p<0.05 compared with control)
