Neuronally expressed SCF induces neural stem cell migration to brain injury site
Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, July 15th, 2004
According to a study from the United States, "Neural stem/progenitor cell (NSPC) migration toward sites of damaged central nervous system (CNS) tissue may represent an adaptive response for the purpose of limiting and/or repairing damage. Little is known of the mechanisms responsible for this migratory response."
"We constructed a cDNA library of injured mouse fore-brain using subtractive suppression hybridization (SSH) to identify genes that were selectively upregulated in the injured hemisphere.
"We demonstrate that stem cell...
