Is retinoic acid (RA) or Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) better for Sh-Sy5y cell (neuroblastoma cells of the bone marrow) differentiation? In order to provide context, I will be coculturing these cells with schwann cells. Thanks!!
You might want to use both: “treatment with growth factors such as nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been shown to support differentiation into and maintenance of a mature neuronal phenotype, particularly when used in combination with RA or TPA treatment [2, 23, 24].”.
