Neural Stem Cells and Their Manipulation
2006Extracellular signals dictate the biological processes of neural stem cells (NSCs) both in vivo and in vitro. The intracellular response elicited by these signals is dependent on the context in which the signal is received, which in turn is decided by previous and concurrent signals impinging on the cell.

Neural Induction and Neural Stem Cell Development
Regenerative Medicine, 2006Embryonic stem (ES) cells are a pluripotent and renewable cellular resource with tremendous potential for broad applications in regenerative medicine. Arguably the most important consideration for stem cell-based therapies is the ability to precisely direct the differentiation of stem cells along a preferred cellular lineage.

The development of neural stem cells
Nature, 2001The discovery of stem cells that can generate neural tissue has raised new possibilities for repairing the nervous system. A rush of papers proclaiming adult stem cell plasticity has fostered the notion that there is essentially one stem cell type that, with the right impetus, can create whatever progeny our heart, liver or other vital organ desires ...

Science, 2000
Neural stem cells exist not only in the developing mammalian nervous system but also in the adult nervous system of all mammalian organisms, including humans. Neural stem cells can also be derived from more primitive embryonic stem cells. The location of the adult stem cells and the brain regions to which their progeny migrate in order to differentiate

Neural Transplantation and Stem Cells
2009Recent results have raised important questions on our ability to amplify stem cell populations in sufficient numbers as to be useful for therapy. Several reports have indicated that human stem cell populations harvested from the adult have low or undetectable telomerase levels, age in culture, and may not be propagated indefinitely.

Stem cells are defined by their ability to both self-renew and give rise to multiple lineages in vivo and/or in vitro. As discussed in other chapters in this volume, the embryonic neural crest is a multipotent tissue that gives rise to a plethora of differentiated cell types in the adult organism and is unique to vertebrate embryos.

Immunomodulation by neural stem cells
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2008Neural (stem) cell transplantation has been proposed as a means of cell replacement therapy. Multipotential neural precursor cells (NPCs) that expand in floating spheres, and are (partially) committed to a glial fate, showed excellent remyelinating properties in a focal, chemically induced demyelinated lesion in the rat spinal cord.

Neural Stem Cell Isolation and Characterization
2006Throughout the process of development and continuing into adulthood, stem cells function as a reservoir of undifferentiated cell types, whose role is to underpin cell genesis in a variety of tissues and organs. In the adult, they play an essential homeostatic role by replacing differentiated tissue cells "worn off" by physiological turnover or lost to ...
