Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

In contrast to neural crest-derived stem cells, which have a limited self-renewal capacity, peripheral neural stem cells closely resemble brain-derived neural stem cells and show the ability to ...

Specific functional, electric firing properties of those neurons are shown by electrophysiology. Directing neural crest and sensory placode lineages Multipotent neural crest (NC) precursor cells have ...
