dorsal root ganglia culture

[Heide Küpers]

the following paper describes how to grow primary rat drgs in cell
culture. I don't know if it will work for drg that are not from a rat.
hope this helps.

FASEB J 2001 Apr;15(6):1037-43; Kress M, Fickenscher H.
Infection by human varicella-zoster virus confers norepinephrine
sensitivity to sensory neurons from rat dorsal root ganglia.

  Good luck! Heide
