Neural stem cells

Progress remains hindered by the complexity of cell structure in this system, the lack of specific cell surface markers to identify distinct cell types and the presence of numerous transit amplifying cell populations that rapidly generate early progenitors.

Stem cells in the adult mammalian central nervous system

Adult neurogenesis and neural stem cells of the central nervous system in mammals

The evidence that neurogenesis occurs in the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and that the adult CNS contains NSCs is reviewed.

Stem and precursor cells in the nervous system.

The early-formed neural tube consists of proliferating, morphologically homogeneous cells, termed "neuroepithelial (NEP) stem cells" which generate neurons, astrocytes, and oligodenrocytes through a…

Mammalian neural stem cells.

Before the full potential of neural stem cells can be realized, the authors need to learn what controls their proliferation, as well as the various pathways of differentiation available to their daughter cells.

Development of neural stem cell in the adult brain

Astrocytic nature of adult neural stem cells in vivo

It is suggested that neural stem cells, when activated to become transit amplifying cells, upregulate the expression of growth factor receptors on their surface, allowing their isolation as neurospheres.

The Adult Rat Hippocampus Contains Primordial Neural Stem Cells

The ability to genetically mark and clone normal diploid hippocampal progenitors provides the first definitive evidence that multipotent neural stem cells exist outside of the adult striatal subventricular zone and supports the hypothesis that FGF-2-responsive neural stem Cells may be broadly distributed in the adult brain.

This report shows that SVZ cells labeled in the brains of adult mice with [3H]thymidine differentiate directly into neurons and glia in explant cultures, and shows that 98% of the neurons that differentiate from the SVZ explants are derived from precursor cells that underwent their last division in vivo.

Isolation, characterization, and use of stem cells from the CNS.

Because in vitro culture conditions are unlikely to provide all of the factors necessary for inducing the proliferation and differentiation of neural precursors, recent studies have explored the properties of well-characterized precursor populations after implantation back into specific regions of the developing or adult CNS.

Multipotential stem cells from the adult mouse brain proliferate and self-renew in response to basic fibroblast growth factor

It is demonstrated that bFGF is mitogenic for multipotential cells from adult mammalian forebrain that possess stem cell properties that are capable of self- renewal and leading to a progressive increase in population size over serial passaging.
