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

After this partitioning of the neuroepithelium, cells are free to intermingle within a rhombomere but do not mix with their neighbours 3. It has already been shown that rhombomeres exhibit a pair- ...

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

A team of researchers from more than ten laboratories in Europe, Asia and North America examined newly identified cells in mice called peripheral neural stem cells. These cells share important ...

The authors provide valuable insights into the candidate upstream transcriptional regulatory factors that control the spatiotemporal expression of selector genes and their targets for GABAergic vs ...
