Aging restricts the initial neural patterning potential of developing neural stem and progenitor cells in the adult brain [PDF]
IntroductionNeurosphere culture is widely used to expand neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) of the nervous system. Understanding the identity of NSPCs, such as the principals involved in spatiotemporal patterning, will improve our chances of using ...

DFMO inhibition of neuroblastoma tumorigenesis [PDF]
Background Most high‐risk neuroblastoma patients who relapse succumb to disease despite the existing therapy. We recently reported increased event‐free and overall survival in neuroblastoma patients receiving difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) during ...

Nuclear hormone receptors control fundamental processes of human fetal neurodevelopment: Basis for endocrine disruption assessment [PDF]
Despite growing awareness of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), knowledge gaps remain regarding their effects on human brain development. EDC risk assessment focuses primarily on EATS modalities (estrogens, androgens, thyroid hormones, and ...

Human Patient-Derived Brain Tumor Models to Recapitulate Ependymoma Tumor Vasculature
Despite in vivo malignancy, ependymoma lacks cell culture models, thus limiting therapy development. Here, we used a tunable three-dimensional (3D) culture system to approximate the ependymoma microenvironment for recapitulating a patient’s tumor in ...

Isolating Globose Basal Stem Cells from Albino Wistar Rats Using a Highly Specific Monoclonal Antibody [PDF]
Introduction: Olfactory mucosa which is situated in the roof of the nasal cavity possesses an extremely peculiar and exceptional type of pluripotent stem cells called Globose Basal Cells (GBCs) which help in lifelong regeneration of the olfactory ...

Generation of Porcine Induced Neural Stem Cells Using the Sendai Virus
The reprogramming of cells into induced neural stem cells (iNSCs), which are faster and safer to generate than induced pluripotent stem cells, holds tremendous promise for fundamental and frontier research, as well as personalized cell-based therapies ...
