COILING VERSUS CLIPPING FOR THE TREATMENT OF ANEURYSMAL SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE: A LONGITUDINAL INVESTIGATION INTO COGNITIVE OUTCOME. [Neurosurgery – Current Table Of Contents]
Development and differentiation of neural rosettes derived from human embryonic stem cells.. Neurons and glia are important targets of human embryonic stem cell research, promising a renewable source of these differentiated cells for biomedical research and regenerative medicine. Neurons and glia are derived in vivo from the neuroepithelium of the neural tube. Concomitant to development along the anterior to posterior axis, gradients of morphogens across the dorsal and ventral axis of the neural tube establish positional codes that generate distinct progenitor domains and ultimately specify subtype identity. The neural rosette is the developmental signature of neuroprogenitors in cultures of differentiating embryonic stem cells; rosettes are radial arrangements of columnar cells that express many of the proteins expressed in neuroepithelial cells in the neural tube. In addition to similar morpholog [PubMed: neural stem cell]
Cell surface antigens on rat neural progenitors and characterization of the CD3 (+)/CD3 (-) cell populations..While the hematopoietic lineage has been extensively studied using cluster of differentiation (CD) antibodies, very few data are available on the extracellular epitopes expressed by rat neural progenitors (rNPC) and their derivatives. In the present study, we used flow cytometry to screen 47 cell surface antigens, initially known as immune markers. The quantitative analyses were performed on [PubMed: neural stem cell]
Brainmaps.org goes online.
Researchers at the UC Davis Center for Neuroscience have just launched Brainmaps.org, an online database containing over 50 terabytes (15 million megapixels) of zoomable, high resolution neuroanatomical data. The database includes sets of data from humans, 4 monkey species, dogs, cats, rodents, monotremes (duck-billed platypus and echidna) and owls.
