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

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

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 ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international study, led by Hans Schöler of the Max Planck Institute for Molecular ...

Chronic neuroinflammation, a key driver of these disorders, arises from the intricate interactions between cerebral blood vessels and neural cells, where the BBB plays a pivotal regulatory role.

Understanding the signals that regulate the appearance of glial differentiation in neural crest cells, and defining the role of positive and/or negative inductive signals or default mechanisms in ...

A neural stem cell transplant has enabled an elderly man who sustained spinal cord injuries in an accident to stand unaided again. At the time of writing, the research team said, the man had begun ...
