TL;DR: Findings indicate that central cholinergic neurons which lose their NGF receptors during postnatal development will resume their N GF responsiveness when the tissue is damaged, and a damage-induced mechanism may act to enhance the action of trophic factors released at the site of injury and enhance the responsiveness of damaged CNS neurons to exogenously administered trophics.
