Neural Stem Cells in Treating Diseases of the CNS Brooke McCarthy BME 281 Fall 2011

Stem Cells Undifferentiated cells Types Cell division Induced to become specialized cells Physiologically Experimentally

Neural Stem Cells Most fundamental cell of the nervous system Divides to create Neurons Astrocytes Oligodendroglia

CNS Malignant glioblastomas Multiple sclerosis Niemann-Pick’s disease Current treatments

NSC Therapy Inject Migrate Surround
