Neural stem cells help maintain their microenvironment: Study
Updated : 2 years, 12 months ago IST
When it comes to cell kinds, stem cells essentially have limitless potential. These self-renewing cells, which may give birth to every cell type in the body, live in niches, which are specialised microenvironments. Researchers in Japan have now thrown fresh light on the dynamics of the neura

Updated : 3 years ago IST
Neural stem cells that are quiescent or latent in some parts of the adult brain may one day become active and create new neurons. Yet, nothing is currently known about the change from quiescence to proliferation.

E-cigarettes may damage brain stem cells: Study
Updated : 6 years, 8 months ago IST
Washington D.C. [USA], July 2 (ANI): Often used as an alternative to traditional smoking, e-cigarettes (EC) come with their own health risks. E-cigarettes produce a stress response in neural stem cells, which are critical cells in the brain, finds a study.
