TL;DR: It is suggested that NSC migration can be extensive, even in the adult brain and along nonstereotypical routes, if pathology is present, and the adjunctive use of inherently migratory NSCs as a delivery vehicle for targeting therapeutic genes and vectors to refractory, migratory, invasive brain tumors is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transplantation of neural progenitor and stem cells: Developmental insights may suggest new therapies for spinal cord and other CNS dysfunction
TL;DR: The authors believe they have tapped into a mechanism that underlies a remarkable degree of natural plasticity programmed into the nervous system at the cellular level, and they have now exploited those properties for therapeutic ends.
Journal Article
Potential of neural "stem-like" cells for gene therapy and repair of the degenerating central nervous system.

Book ChapterDOI
Transplantation and Differentiation of Neural “Stem-Like” Cells: Possible Insights Into Development and Therapeutic Potential
Evan Y. Snyder,Jonathan D. Flax,Booma D. Yandava,K. I. Park,Shaoxiong Liu,C. M. Rosario,S. Aurora +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the inherent biologic properties of neural progenitors make them appealingly suited to be efficient, multifaceted vehicles for cell replacement, repair, and gene transfer in CNS dysfuncion.
