Methods for analysis of brain tumor stem cell and neural stem cell self-renewal.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2009

Nakano Ichiro, Kornblum Harley I

Abstract excerpt

Neural stem cells (NSC) self-renew and are multipotent, producing neurons and glia. Recent studies have shown that brain tumors (BT) contain cells that, like NSC, self-renew and are multipotent, producing the different types of cells found within the brain tumors. These brain tumor stem cells are a kind of cancer stem cell, competent to form tumors that mimic the parent tumor in experimental animals. Studies from...
