| Abstract: | Glio-neuronal aggregates of dissociated cells obtained from embryonic brain during cultivation in rotating flasks were transfered for further cultivation into collagen gel, containing balanced salt solution, serum-free amino acid medium, or complete nutrient medium. Active neurite growth and glial cell migration were observed during cultivation in collagen gel. The experiments have shown that glio-neuronal aggregates may serve as an experimental model for testing the activity of different neuronotrophic and neurite growth stimulating factors. |
