Neurons dissociated from embryonic chick sympathetic and dorsal root (sensory) ganglia were separated from the majority of the ganglionic non-neuronal cells by a preplating technique and then cultured without serum on a polyornithine substrate. The culture medium was F14, supplemented with 5 μg/ml transferrin, 5 μg/ml insulin and 10 ng/ml nerve growth factor (NGF). Under these conditions the neurons rapidly adhered to the substrate, thus obviating the need to initiate the culture in the presence of serum. Quantitative studies showed that the numbers of neurons surviving in this serum-free medium were the same as those surviving under optimal conditions with NGF and serum. Additional supplements to the culture medium—such as progesterone, putrescine, selenium, triiodothyronine, or hydroxycortisone—did not enhance neuronal survival further. The long-term survival of the neurons under the present conditions was, however, improved over that in the presence of serum. Additionally, the few non-neuronal cells remaining in the cultures after preplating were found to proliferate extensively during long culture periods.
