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……
