Abstract excerpt
Expanded neural precursor cells provide an attractive alternative to primary fetal tissue for cell replacement therapies in neurodegenerative diseases. In this study we transplanted epigenetically propagated human neural precursor cells into a rat model of Huntington's disease. Neural precursors survived transplantation and large numbers differentiated to express neuronal antigens, including some that expressed...
