Journal ArticleDOI

Subventricular Zone Astrocytes Are Neural Stem Cells in the Adult Mammalian Brain

TL;DR: It is shown that SVZ astrocytes act as neural stem cells in both the normal and regenerating brain and give rise to cells that grow into multipotent neurospheres in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular Composition and Three-Dimensional Organization of the Subventricular Germinal Zone in the Adult Mammalian Brain

TL;DR: The results suggest that chains of migrating neuroblasts in the SVZ may be derived from Type C cells, which had immature ultrastructural characteristics and were nestin-positive but negative to the other markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fusion of bone-marrow-derived cells with Purkinje neurons, cardiomyocytes and hepatocytes

TL;DR: Using a simple method based on Cre/lox recombination to detect cell fusion events, it is demonstrated that bone-marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) fuse spontaneously with neural progenitors in vitro, raising the possibility that cell fusion may contribute to the development or maintenance of these key cell types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Astrocytes Give Rise to New Neurons in the Adult Mammalian Hippocampus

TL;DR: It is shown that SGL cells, which express glial fibrillary acidic protein and have the characteristics of astrocytes, divide and generate new neurons under normal conditions or after the chemical removal of actively dividing cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurogenesis in adult subventricular zone.

TL;DR: This work has identified adult brain regions harboring neural stem cells and their continual generation of new neurons throughout life, an important departure from traditional views of the germinal potential of the postnatal brain.
