Abstract
A method of identifying neurite cDNA clones by determining and comparing mRNA expression in selected neurites is provided. cDNA clones identified by this method are also provided. In addition, methods of profiling mRNA expression and diagnosing and treating conditions associated with a pattern of mRNA expression by determining an mRNA expression profile in selected cells are provided.
