Skin-derived neural precursors competitively generate functional myelin in adult demyelinated mice.
Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived (iPS-derived) neural precursor cells may represent the ideal autologous cell source for cell-based therapy to promote remyelination and neuroprotection in myelin diseases. So far, the therapeutic potential of reprogrammed cells has been evaluated in neonatal demyelinating models. However, the repair efficacy and safety of these cells has not been well addre...
متن کاملTransplanted progenitors generate functional enteric neurons in the postnatal colon.
Cell therapy has the potential to treat gastrointestinal motility disorders caused by diseases of the enteric nervous system. Many studies have demonstrated that various stem/progenitor cells can give rise to functional neurons in the embryonic gut; however, it is not yet known whether transplanted neural progenitor cells can migrate, proliferate, and generate functional neurons in the postnata...
متن کاملSkin-derived precursors generate myelinating Schwann cells for the injured and dysmyelinated nervous system.
Although neural stem cells hold considerable promise for treatment of the injured or degenerating nervous system, their current human sources are embryonic stem cells and fetally derived neural tissue. Here, we asked whether rodent and human skin-derived precursors (SKPs), neural crest-related precursors found in neonatal dermis, represent a source of functional, myelinating Schwann cells. Spec...
متن کاملSkin-derived precursors generate myelinating Schwann cells that promote remyelination and functional recovery after contusion spinal cord injury.
Transplantation of exogenous cells is one approach to spinal cord repair that could potentially enhance the growth and myelination of endogenous axons. Here, we asked whether skin-derived precursors (SKPs), a neural crest-like precursor that can be isolated and expanded from mammalian skin, could be used to repair the injured rat spinal cord. To ask this question, we isolated and expanded genet...
متن کاملDirected differentiation of skin-derived precursors into fibroblast-like cells.
Skin-derived precursors (SKPs), which are located at skin's dermis, display multi-lineage potential and can produce both neural and mesodermal progeny in vitro. SKPs are considered to take part in dermal reconstruction and may be an important source of fibroblast during wound repairing. To explore the possibility of differentiation of SKPs into fibroblasts, the 3(rd) passage SKPs were treated w...
