Clonal in vitro analysis of neurotrophin receptor p75-immunofluorescent cells reveals phenotypic plasticity of primary rat olfactory ensheathing cells.

Abstract excerpt

Clonal in vitro analysis represents a powerful tool for studying cellular differentiation. In the present study, microscope-assisted single cell transfer was combined with immunofluorescence to establish clonal cultures of identified primary rat olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs). During development, OECs originate from the neural crest, a transient population of multipotent cells. Since only neural crest cells...
