ABSTRACT:
A novel neuronotrophic factor having a molecular weight of about 14,000 to 17,000 daltons and an isoelectric point of about 10 is prepared by homogenization of mammalian brain tissue, particularly bovine brain tissue, acid precipitation of the homogenate thus produced, dialysis of the resulting supernatant with dialysis membranes having a molecular weight cut-off of between 5 and 10 kilodaltons and chromatographic fractionation upon molecular weight permeation of the dialyzed supernatant thus produced. The neuronotrophically active fractions may be further purified by cation exchange chromatography with a gradient of ammonium acetate buffer. The neuronotrophic factor of the invention is useful in the treatment of various neuropathological conditions.
