Abstract excerpt
The NT2 cell line, which was derived from a human teratocarcinoma, exhibits properties that are characteristic of a committed neuronal precursor at an early stage of development. NT2 cells can be induced by retinoic acid to differentiate in vitro into postmitotic central nervous system (CNS) neurons (NT2-N cells). The commitment of NT2-N cells to a stable neuronal phenotype is irreversible. Because it may be...
