    Labeling Stem Cells In Vitro for Identification of Their Differentiated Phenotypes After Grafting into the CNS

    Stem cells have unlimited therapeutic potential for restoring CNS function lost secondary to trauma or degenerative disease. To date, stem cell grafts have only in a few instances partially ameliorated functio...

    Labeling Stem Cells In Vitro for Identification of their Differentiated Phenotypes after Grafting into the CNS

    Grafting neural stem cells is a widely used experimental approach to central nervous system (CNS) repair after trauma or neurodegeneration. It is likely to be a realistic clinical therapy for human CNS disorde...
