Notes:
Summary Adrenal chromaffin cells from adult rats and monkeys were mechanically dissociated and implanted into the striatum of adult rats by stereotaxic injection. Rat chromaffin cells survived (5%) and showed differentiation by forming processes 1 h-28 days after implantation. Monkey chromaffin cells survived for 48 h but showed very little formation of processes. The method presented allows rapid nonenzymatic dissociation and transplantation of adrenal medullary cells.
