Introduction: Neurosphere 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 ...

Finally, to examine the role of birth-induced upregulation of Glul in RG, they generated Glul-knockdown and -overexpression lentiviruses and infected them to RG in vivo. Their experiments ...

Summary: Researchers have developed a flexible, biodegradable electrode capable of stimulating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in the brain, offering a safer and more precise alternative for neural ...

Brain implants, made from small clusters of brain cells, could help restore neural pathways damaged by Parkinson’s disease.

Jan. 31, 2025 — Prolonged illnesses like cancer and chronic infections often leave the immune system in a state of exhaustion, where its frontline defenders -- T cells -- lose their ability to ...

This study provides a valuable new resource to investigate the molecular basis of the particular features characterizing the pipefish embryo. The authors found both unique and shared gene expression ...

Pluripotent stem cells are dynamic, respond rapidly to the environment and can grow indefinitely in culture, making it difficult to manufacture a consistent product whose cellular composition ...

For over a decade, smaller clinical trials have explored the safety and feasibility of these particular stem cell approaches and found them beneficial for people with MS. Neural stem cells are ...

The 3D-printed brain-like model from TU Delft promotes structured neuronal networks, offering a new tool for investigating ...
