For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

Human embryonic stem cells display neural crest characteristic expression after only five days of culture under WNT induction. Transcription factors SOX10 and PAX7 are seen in green and red ...

The discovery of peripheral neural stem cells outside the central nervous system suggests a previously unrecognised level of ...

Northeastern University scientists have discovered that a protein in the human brain could potentially be used to grow new ...

The identification of peripheral neural stem cells could transform the treatment of Parkinson's disease and spinal cord ...

Another key regulator is SOX10, which is required for the gereration of Schwann cell precursors from the neural crest. Understanding the signals that regulate the appearance of glial ...

Cytora, a clinical stage company developing unique stem cell treatments based on human Oral Mucosa Stem Cells (hOMSCs), reported today successful results of a Phase 1/2a clinical trial for treating ...

In my lab, we are interested in understanding the developmental evolution of our own subphylum, the vertebrates. To do this, we study developmental gene expression, regulation, and function in three ...

The detection of peripheral neural stem cells could transform the treatment of Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injuries ...
