2. 1. Features of adult neural progenitor cells

   Author : Lisa Arvidsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : adult neural progenitor cell;

   Abstract : The adult Central Nervous System (CNS) harbors neural progenitor cells (NPCs) in three areas: the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles and the subgranular zone in the hippocampus and around the central canal in the spinal cord. The NPCs can be isolated and cultured in vitro. READ MORE

4. 2. Derivation, propagation and differentiation of human stem and progenitor cells

   Author : Mathilda Zetterström Axell; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : Human embryonic stem cells; neural progenitor cells; stem cells; differentiation; propagation; migration; cell culturing; rostral migratory stream; electrospun scaffolds;

   Abstract : Neuronal loss is a common feature of many neurological disorders, including stroke, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and traumatic brain injury. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and hESC-derived neural progenitors (NPs) may provide a number of new ways for studying and treating diseases and injuries in the brain. READ MORE

5. 3. Neural stam cells, TLX, and Neuroblastoma

   Author : Ravi Kanth Rao Saini; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neuroblastoma; TLX; Neural Stem Cells; Dedifferentiation; DISC-1; DNA-PKcs;

   Abstract : Neuroblastoma (NB) is one of the most commonly diagnosed extracranial tumors in children below five years of age. Moreover, NB accounts for almost 12-15% of all childhood cancer related fatalities. To date, the origin of NB has been linked to the neural crest derived sympathoadrenal progenitor cells. READ MORE

6. 4. Stem cell function and organ development : analysis of Lhx2 function in hematopoietic stem cells and eye development

   Author : Lina Dahl; Leif Carlsson; Jan-Ingvar Jönsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lhx2; hematopoietic system; hematopoietic stem cell; progenitor; embryonic stem cell; embryoid body; eye development; forebrain; eye field transcription factor; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; molecular medicine  genetics and pathology ;

   Abstract : When a multicellular organism suffers damages to tissues/organs it heals itself by either substituting the lost cellular matrix by scar formation or by regenerating the lost tissue. Regeneration likely occurs by a recapitulation of the developmental process that formed the organ. READ MORE

7. 5. Progenitor cells in the brainstem and filum terminale

   Author : Michael Fagerlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : brainstem;

   Abstract : Neurogenesis prevails in the adult mammalian CNS. New neurons are constitutively formed invivo in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricle wall and in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus. READ MORE
