Journal ArticleDOI
Unique astrocyte ribbon in adult human brain contains neural stem cells but lacks chain migration
Nader Sanai,Anthony D. Tramontin,Alfredo Quiñones-Hinojosa,Nicholas M. Barbaro,Nalin Gupta,Sandeep Kunwar,Michael T. Lawton,Michael W. McDermott,Andrew T. Parsa,José Manuel García Verdugo,Mitchel S. Berger,Arturo Alvarez-Buylla +11 more
TL;DR: A ribbon of SVZ astrocytes lining the lateral ventricles of the adult human brain that proliferate in vivo and behave as multipotent progenitor cells in vitro is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noggin antagonizes BMP signaling to create a niche for adult neurogenesis
Daniel A. Lim,Anthony D. Tramontin,Jose M. Trevejo,Daniel G. Herrera,José Manuel García-Verdugo,Arturo Alvarez-Buylla +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that ependymal Noggin production creates a neurogenic environment in the adjacent SVZ by blocking endogenous BMP signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unified hypothesis on the lineage of neural stem cells.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the stem cells in the central nervous system are contained within the neuroepithelial → radial glia → astrocyte lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radial glia give rise to adult neural stem cells in the subventricular zone
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that radial glia cells not only serve as progenitors for many neurons and glial cells soon after birth but also give rise to adult SVZ stem cells that continue to produce neurons throughout adult life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adult Ependymal Cells Are Postmitotic and Are Derived from Radial Glial Cells during Embryogenesis
Nathalie Spassky,Florian T. Merkle,Nuria Flames,Anthony D. Tramontin,José Manuel García-Verdugo,Arturo Alvarez-Buylla +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that ependymal cells are born in the embryonic and early postnatal brain and that they do not divide after differentiation, which strongly suggests that these cells do not function as neural stem cells in the adult.
