Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has proliferative effects on neural stem cells through the truncated TRK-B receptor, MAP kinase, AKT, and STAT-3 signaling pathways
{{output}}
Neurospheres can be generated from the mouse fetal forebrain by exposing multipotent neural stem cells (NSCs) to epidermal growth factor (EGF). In the presence of EGF, NSCs can proliferate continuously while retaining the potential to differentiate into neuron... ...
