CD44 expression identifies astrocyte-restricted precursor cells

TLDR
The data provide strong evidence for the existence of a CD44+ ARP in the developing nervous system, which can be generated from GRP cells in mass or clonal cultures and in vivo after transplantation, suggesting a sequential differentiation of neuroepithelial stem cells to GRPs to ARPs and then to astrocytes.

The therapeutic potential of neural stem cells.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the alternative bystander mechanism in the context of the atypical ectopic perivascular niche and propose that it is the most challenging example of reciprocal therapeutic crosstalk between the inflamed CNS and systemically transplanted neural stem cells.

Cdk4/cyclinD1 overexpression in neural stem cells shortens G1, delays neurogenesis, and promotes the generation and expansion of basal progenitors.

TL;DR: G1 lengthening is necessary and sufficient to switch neural progenitors to neurogenesis, and overexpression of cdk4/cyclinD1 can be used to increase progenitor expansion and, perhaps, cortical surface area.

A glial progenitor cell that develops in vitro into an astrocyte or an oligodendrocyte depending on culture medium

TL;DR: It is suggested that fibrous astrocytes and oligodendrocyte develop from a common progenitor cell and provide a striking example of developmental plasticity and environmental influence in the differentiation of CNS glial cells.

The bHLH Transcription Factors OLIG2 and OLIG1 Couple Neuronal and Glial Subtype Specification

TL;DR: The results suggest that in the spinal cord, Olig and proneural genes comprise a combinatorial code for the specification of neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendroCytes, the three fundamental cell types of the central nervous system.

Common Developmental Requirement for Olig Function Indicates a Motor Neuron/Oligodendrocyte Connection

TL;DR: Targeted disruption of Olig1 and Olig2 genes sheds light on the ontogeny of oligodendroglia and genetic requirements for their development from multipotent CNS progenitors, indicating that oligod endodendrocytes are derived from Olig-specified progenitor that give rise also to neurons.

CD44: Structure, Function and Association with the Malignant Process

TL;DR: It has been shown in animal models that injection of reagents interfering with CD44-ligand interaction inhibit local tumor growth and metastatic spread and suggest that CD44 may confer a growth advantage on some neoplastic cells and, therefore, could be used as a target for cancer diagnosis.
