Abstract excerpt
The implementation of cell replacement therapies for Huntington's disease using multipotent neural stem cells (NSCs) requires the specific differentiation into gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neuronal subtype before transplantation. Here we present an efficient culture procedure that induces stable GABAergic neurons from the immortalized striatal neural stem cell line ST14A. This process requires sequential...
