Neural Stem Cell Study Reveals Mechanism That May Play Role In Cancer

Science Daily In the dynamic world of the developing brain, neural stem cells give rise to neurons deep within the brain’s fluid-filled ventricles. These newborn neurons then migrate along the stem cell fibers up to the neocortex, the seat of higher cognitive functions. Now, scientists have discovered a key mechanism of this migration — one that may also play an important role in other developmental processes and diseases, including cancer……
