Researchers have developed a stem cell treatment that they say allowed a paralyzed man to stand again following a spinal cord ...

A paralyzed man received an injection of reprogrammed stem cells that helped him stand and move on his own again.

The researchers discussed how NCC regulates the balance between different types of brain cells, such as neural progenitors, neurons, and glial cells, ensuring the proper structure and function of ...

A paralysed man can stand on his own after receiving an injection of neural stem cells to treat his spinal cord injury. The ...

For years, a Japanese man lay motionless, paralyzed from the neck down after a devastating spinal cord injury. Doctors ...

A progress report for a phase 1 trial of CLD-101 in recurrent glioma shows safety and feasibility at multiple intracerebral ...

Neural stem cells are multipotent adult stem cells present in the adult central nervous system that can self-renew, and give rise to new neurons and supporting cells called glial cells.

The researchers turned these cells into neural precursor cells in a lab and ... The goal is to have these cells then develop into neurons and glial cells, which support and protect neurons.

Additionally, glial cells are essential for maintaining neural homeostasis, supporting metabolic functions that are essential for neuronal health. However, these interactions can have both beneficial ...
