Researchers have discovered the mechanism which allows adult brain stem cells to express genes that maintain their identity and those for neuronal differentiation without conflicts in cellular activity. Furthermore, this […]
The development of the cerebral cortex largely depends on the stem cells responsible for generating neurons, known as radial glial cells. Until now, it was believed that these stem cells […]
Brain organoids, though often referred to as “mini brains,” are not truly human brains. But the concerns over these lab-grown brain tissues, especially when they are developed from human fetal […]
Neuroscientists at the University of Galway have made an exciting discovery that could revolutionize stem cell-based brain repair therapy for Parkinson’s disease.
The structure and functions of the tip of migrating neurons remain elusive. A research group has found that the PTPσ-expressing growth cone senses the extracellular matrix and drives neuronal migration […]
