Peripheral Nerve
Stem cells
- Neural stem cell isolation and culture in 1992
- Have capacity to diff into mature neurons in vitro and in vivo
- Accessibility an issue
- Bone marrow stromal cells more easily available
- MSCs express markers of neural progenitors including
- Neurofilament proteins
- Neuron specific nuclear protein
- β-tubulin III
- Glial fibrillary acidic protein
- Can diff into neurons and glia
