Integrins Are Markers of Human Neural Stem Cells
12 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
The identification of markers for the isolation of human neural stem cells (hNSCs) is essential for studies of their biology and therapeutic applications. This study investigated expression of the integrin receptor family by hNSCs as potential markers. Selection of alpha6(hi) or beta1(hi) cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting led to an enrichment of human neural precursors, as shown by both neurosphere...
