Neural Progenitor Cell Polarity and Cortical Development
Neurons populating the cerebral cortex are generated during embryonic development from neural stem and progenitor cells in a process called neurogenesis. Neural stem and progenitor cells are classified into several classes based on the different location of mitosis (apical or basal) and polarity features (bipolar, monopolar and non-polar). The polarized architecture of stem cells is linked to t...
متن کاملMaking bigger brains-the evolution of neural-progenitor-cell division.
Relative brain size differs markedly between species. This variation might ultimately result from differences in the cell biology of neural progenitors, which might underlie their different proliferative potential. On the basis of the cell-biological properties of neural progenitors of animals of varying brain size and complexity (namely, Drosophila melanogaster, rodents and primates), we hypot...
متن کاملAlpha-Tocopherol increases the proliferation of induced pluripotent stem cell derived neural progenitor cells
In addition to its antioxidant effect, Vitamin E or α–tocopherol is suggested to enhance remyelination in the animal model of non-inflammatory demyelination. In this study, the possible proliferative effect of vitamin E on human- induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural progenitors (hiPS-NPs) and the underlying mechanisms were investigated in vitro. NPs were induced from iPS cells via 3 ste...
متن کاملMechanisms of brain evolution: Regulation of neural progenitor cell diversity and cell cycle length
In the last few years, several studies have revisited long-held assumptions in the field of brain development and evolution providing us with a fundamentally new vision on the mechanisms controlling its size and shape, hence function. Among these studies, some described hitherto unforeseeable subtypes of neural progenitors while others reinterpreted long-known observations about their cell cycl...
متن کاملPredicting Neural Progenitor Cell Networks
Predicting neuronal networks from calcium fluorescence data is extremely difficult due to the nature of the data collection. Current methods to overcome this difficulty, while powerful, are somewhat arbitrary, presenting new difficulties in later analysis. Specifically, current ad-hoc methods often make arbitrary distinctions between connected and unconnected neurons. In this project, I attempt...
