Abstract excerpt
A cell line NT with phenotypic features of neural precursor cells has been established from an embryo-derived teratocarcinoma in Swiss mouse where, on serial transplantation, the developmental potential becomes restricted to neural pathway. All the cells are positive for nestin (a marker of neuroepithelial stem cells). Many of them are also positive for NFP and/or GFAP. Moreover there is a gradual decrease from...
