Abstract
The invention relates to a neurite-promoting factor released by glial cells, to related proteins and fragments thereof retaining their neurite-promoting activity, to DNAs coding for the amino acid sequence of the neurite-promoting factor and fragments thereof, to hybrid vectors containing such DNAs, to hosts transformed with such a hybrid vector, to processes for the preparation of the DNAs, vectors and transformed hosts, to processes for the manufacture of the neurite-promoting factor, related proteins and its fragments, and to their use in the treatment of lesions in the nervous system.
