Neural Stem Cell Renewal Mediated by Strangely Named Gene
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News (blog)
The researchers were able to develop a novel mouse model that selectively identified neural stem cells, the progenitors of new adult brain cells. Consequently, in these mice, the research team found a novel mechanism by which descendants of neural stem …
