It is well established that serum plays an important role in cell proliferation and differentiation. In this study, we have identified a serum factor that induces rapid neurite retraction of morphologically differentiated NG108-15 cells, cultured in serum-free medium containing 1 mM-dibutyryl cyclic AMP. The serum fraction of Mr greater than 30 x 10(3) induces neurite retraction in a manner ide...
