In a study being published in the journal Neuron, researchers show that the signal molecule TGF-beta acts as a time signal that regulates the nerve stem cells’ potential at different stages of the brain’s development \u2013 knowledge that may be significant for future pharmaceutical development.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

UCLA study finds link between neural stem cell overgrowth and autism-like behavior in mice<\/a><\/h2>\n

A new study by UCLA researchers demonstrates how, in pregnant mice, inflammation, a first line defense of the immune system, can trigger an excessive division of neural stem cells that can cause \u201covergrowth\u201d in the offspring\u2019s brain.<\/p>\n

The paper appears Oct. 9 in the online edition of the journal Stem Cell Reports.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

Researchers discover a \u201cswitch\u201d in Alzheimer\u2019s and stroke patient brains <\/a><\/h2>\n

A new study by researchers at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (Sanford-Burnham) has identified a chemical \u201cswitch\u201d that controls both the generation of new neurons from neural stem cells and the survival of existing nerve cells in the brain. The switch that shuts off the signals that promote neuron production and survival is in abundance in the brains of Alzheimer\u2019s patients and stroke victims. The studysuggests that chemical switch, MEF2, may be a potential therapeutic target to protect against neuronal loss in a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer\u2019s, Parkinson\u2019s and autism. <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

Researchers discover stem cell ‘guide’ that may be key for targeting neural stem cell treatments<\/a><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

\n
\n
UC Irvine School of Medicine researchers have discovered how new neurons born from endogenous neural stem cells are sent to regions of the brain where they can replace old and dying cells, a finding that suggests how stem cell therapies can be specifically targeted to brain regions affected by neurodegenerative diseases or by stroke.\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n

DHEA Boosts Growth Rate Of Human Neural Stem Cells<\/a><\/h2>\n
\n Wednesday, February 18, 2004<\/span>  \u00b7  Posted by University of Wisconsin- Madison<\/a> <\/div>\n

It’s known that DHEA amounts fall progressively during aging, and reduced levels of DHEA have been reported in both adolescents and adults with major depressive disorders. And given the fact that adult humans have neural stem cells that continue to make new neurons in some parts of the brain, there is a possibility that DHEA could play a role in moderating the genesis of new brain cells.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
