Neural stem cells

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2001
In recent papers on neural stem cells, two areas of progress stand out. First, there has been a substantial growth in the published examples of 'transdifferentiation'. Second, there has been progress, albeit more modest, in studies of repair by neural stem cells following transplantation into animal models of disease.

Neural Stem Cells

2011
Neural stem/progenitor cell (NPC) cultures are a tool to study the differentiation of neuronal cells and can be used to model disease conditions in studies investigating the pathological mechanisms affecting the development and cellular plasticity of the central nervous system.

Hormesis and neural stem cells

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2022
This paper provides a detailed identification and assessment of hormetic dose responses in neural stem cells (NSCs) as identified in a number of animal models and human tissues, with particular emphasis on cell proliferation and differentiation. Hormetic dose responses were commonly observed following administration of a number of agents, including ...

Neural Stem Cells

2019
Neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation has provided the basis for the development of potentially powerful new therapeutic cell-based strategies for a broad spectrum of clinical diseases, including stroke, psychiatric illnesses such as fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, and cancer.

Neural Stem Cells

2010
Neural stem cells are the source of all neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes of the central nervous system. While the vast majority of neural stem cells are consumed during embryonic development, a subpopulation persists in specialized regions of the adult mammalian brain where addition of cells, notably neurons, continues throughout life.

Adult Neural Stem Cells

2008
Neural stem cells (NSCs) have been identified in the mature central nervous system (CNS), and they reside in specific areas. Cultures of NSCs can be successfully established in vitro by exploiting the NeuroSphere assay. This methodology relies on the continuous exposure of neural cells to mitogens such as epidermal growth factor and fibroblast growth ...

The neural stem cell niche

Cell and Tissue Research, 2007
The neural stem cell niche defines a zone in which stem cells are retained after embryonic development for the production of new cells of the nervous system. This continual supply of new neurons and glia then provides the postnatal and adult brain with an added capacity for cellular plasticity, albeit one that is restricted to a few specific zones ...

Glycobiology of Neural Stem Cells

CNS & Neurological Disorders - Drug Targets, 2006
The mammalian central nervous system is organized by a variety of cells, such as neurons and glial cells, that are generated from a common progenitor, the neural stem cell (NSC). NSCs are defined as undifferentiated neural cells that are characterized by their high proliferative potential while retaining the capacity for self-renewal and multipotency ...

The Neural Stem Cells

2010
Neural stem cells represent a heterogeneous population of mitotically active, self-renewing and multipotent cells of both the developing and the adult central nervous system (CNS) showing complex patterns of gene expression that may vary in both space and time.
