Examples
-
The neurosphere transplants eventually grew into tumors and reignited the Notch pathway.
-
In agreement with this hypothesis, we find that Nolz1 over-expression promotes cell cycle exit of NPCs in neurosphere cultures and negatively regulates proliferation in telencephalic organotypic cultures.
-
The neurosphere transplants eventually grew into tumors and reignited the Notch pathway.
-
These results may suggest that most cells in the hNPs remain in the PNS precursor state while some intrinsic PNS differentiation is taking place at the periphery of the neurosphere.
-
Long-term human neurosphere cultures isolated from brain tissue (gestational 16-20 weeks) have been described previously
-
This process theoretically selects for a NSC-enriched population; accordingly, these cells exhibit approximately a 2000-fold enhancement in neurosphere initiating capacity
-
To obtain a direct evidence of the improved self-renewal capacity of T-IhNSC we performed a clonogenic, neurosphere assay.
-
In addition to their proliferative capacity, an essential property of bona fide stem cells is their self-renewal potential, which can be demonstrated in neural stem cell cultures by observing a linear cell growth kinetic under the appropriate neurosphere assay conditions and in long-term cultures
-
After 4 days in vitro, the fraction of wells positive for neurosphere formation was quantified.
-
[18], which enriches the number of cells in the population with neurosphere-initiating capacity approximately 2000-fold.
