A non-cholinergic, trophic action of acetylcholinesterase on hippocampal neurones in vitro: molecular mechanisms.
In this study neurite outgrowth from cultured hippocampal neurones was increased by addition of acetylcholinesterase acting in a non-cholinergic manner. Only monomeric acetylcholinesterase, a form of acetylcholinesterase dominant in development, increased neurite outgrowth (3-10 U/ml); moreover this...
