images revealed an increase in neurite outgrowth as well as higher mRNA levels of synaptic proteins related to neurite outgrowth and synapse formation upon nutrient supplementation. Conclusions: In general, the specific nutrient combination in Fortasyn Connect enhanced neurite outgrowth and increased synaptic gene expression more than the other nutrient combinations tested.
