Researchers discover stem cell 'guide' that may be key for targeting neural stem cell treatments
UC Irvine School of Medicine researchers have discovered how new neurons born from endogenous neural stem cells are sent to regions of the brain where they can replace old and dying cells, a finding that suggests how stem cell therapies can be specifically targeted to brain regions affected by neurodegenerative diseases or by stroke. view more (2005-06-24)
