Characterization of an in vitro neural stem cell niche with educational component : stem cells and society
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] We describe a novel neural stem cell (NSC) culture system, derived from embryonic stem (ES) cells, that maintains and expands a population of neural ... -
Immunogenic properties of neuralized embryonic stem cells in a model of allogenic intracranial transplantation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Intracranial stem cell transplantation has may restore central nervous system (CNS) function and compensate for neural cell loss. However, immunological ... -
Teratoma formation by neuralized C57BL/6J-EGFP mouse embyonic stem cells after syngeneic transplantation into the midbrain
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)Embryonic stem (ES) cells can differentiate into many specialized cell types, including neural cells. Numerous induction protocols have been developed to direct their differentiation. Our lab created an in vitro neural ... -
Tumor-initiating cells in malignant brain tumors
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)Stem cells have the unique ability to differentiate into the many specialized cells of the body. During adulthood, stem cells remain in the organism and maintain the ability to repair and replenish injured or dead cells ...
