BACKGROUND: The origin and classification of neural stem cells (NSCs) has been a subject of intense investigation for the past two decades. Efforts to categorize NSCs based on their location, function and expressio...
Neural stem cells generate new neurons throughout life in distinct regions of the mammalian brain. This process, called adult neurogenesis, is important for tissue homeostasis and physiological brain function. In addi...
Neurogenesis is the process in which neurons are generated from neural stem/progenitor cells(NSCs/NPCs).It involves the proliferation and neuronal fate specification/differentiation of NSCs,as well as migration,maturat...
