Convincing evidence has repeatedly shown that new neurons are produced in the
mammalian brain into adulthood. Adult neurogenesis has been best described in the …

Stroke, resulting from limited blood flow to the brain, is one of the most important causes of
morbidity and mortality worldwide. Stroke is classified as ischemic, due to lack of blood flow …

A variety of neurological disorders are attractive targets for stem and progenitor cell-based
therapy. Yet many conditions are not, whether by virtue of an inhospitable disease …

New cells are continuously generated from immature proliferating cells throughout
adulthood in many organs, thereby contributing to the integrity of the tissue under …

With the contribution from more than one hundred CNS neurotrauma experts, this book
provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account on the latest developments in the area of …

Direct reprogramming of non-neuronal cells to generate new neurons is a promising
approach to repair damaged brains. Impact of the in vivo environment on neuronal …

Simple Summary Glioblastoma is among the most lethal cancers in humans. Glioblastomas
exhibit a striking heterogeneity, which is maintained by a highly plastic, adaptable …

In multiple sclerosis (MS), oligodendrocyte and myelin destruction lead to demyelination
with subsequent axonal loss. Experimental demyelination in rodents has highlighted the …

This study identifies and characterizes retinal stem cells (RSCs) in early postnatal to seventh-
decade human eyes. Different subregions of human eyes were dissociated and cultured by …

Multipotent neural stem cells, capable of giving rise to both neurons and glia, line the
cerebral ventricles of all adult animals, including humans. In addition, distinct populations of …
