Neural transplantation using proliferated multipotent neural stem cells and their progeny
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for transplanting neural stem cell progeny to a host by obtaining an in vitro cell culture containing CNS neural stem cells where one or more cells in the culture (i) proliferates in a culture medium supplemented with mitrogens, (ii) retains the capacity for renewed proliferation, and (iii) maintains the multipotential capacity, under suitable culture conditions, to differentiate into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte.
Patent
Biological factors and neural stem cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described methods for increasing the number of neural stem cells that differentiate into astrocytes, oligodendrocyte, or neurons in a second culture medium, free of the first growth factor, containing a second growth factor or combination of growth factors.
Patent
Remyelination using neural stem cells
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for remyelination of neurons is disclosed wherein neural stem cells isolated from adult or fetal neural tissue are proliferated in a culture medium containing a growth factor to produce precursor cells having a nestin (+) phenotype.
Patent
Genetic modification of neural stem cells.
TL;DR: In this article, genetically modified, epidermal growth factor-responsive neural stem cells are disclosed that are capable of differentiating into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte in vitro.
Patent
In situ modification and manipulation of stem cells of the central nervous system
TL;DR: In this article, endogenous precursor cells are manipulated/modified in situ to induce the cells, by the application of one or more growth factors or similar compounds, to proliferate, differentiate and migrate within the CNS so as to replace lost or non-functional cells.
