The cilium is the site of function for a variety of membrane receptors, enzymes and signal
transduction modules crucial for a spectrum of cellular processes. Through targeted …

Radial glia cells play fundamental roles in the development of the cerebral cortex, acting
both as the primary stem and progenitor cells, as well as the guides for neuronal migration …

The human cerebral cortex depends for its normal development and size on a precisely
controlled balance between self-renewal and differentiation of diverse neural progenitor …

CD133 and CXCR4 were evaluated in the NCI-60 cell lines to identify cancer stem cell rich
populations. Screening revealed that, ovarian OVCAR-3,-4 and-5 and colon cancer HT-29 …

Neurogenin 3 (NGN3) is necessary and sufficient for endocrine differentiation during
pancreatic development and is expressed by a population of progenitor cells that give rise …

Purpose.: Mutations in the Prominin-1 (Prom1) gene are known to cause retinitis pigmentosa
and Stargardt disease, both of which are associated with progressive photoreceptor cell …

The mammalian cerebral cortex is characterized by a complex histological organization that
reflects the spatio-temporal stratifications of related stem and neural progenitor cells, which …

ABSTRACT CD133 and CD44 are commonly used markers of cancer stem cells (CSCs),
which are characterized by their ability for self‐renewal and tumorigenicity. However, the …

Despite progress in radio-, chemo-and photodynamic-therapy (PDT) of cancer, treatment
resistance still remains a major problem for patients with aggressive tumours. Cancer stem …

Purpose To investigate the genetic basis for autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy (CRD)
in a consanguineous Israeli Jewish family. Methods Patients underwent a detailed …
