Astrocytes as stem cells: nomenclature, phenotype, and translation.

Glia - 1 Jul 2003

Steindler Dennis A, Laywell Eric D

Abstract excerpt

Recently discovered multipotent astrocytic stem cells are discussed in light of current nomenclature for glial precursor and lineage-associated cells in the developing, postnatal, and adult mammalian brain. Defining the phenotype of any immature cell in the nervous system is a challenge, and a position is stated that includes the need for categorizing cells within a continuum of differentiation potential. The...
