Abstract:Manipulation of neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation in the postnatal CNS is receiving significant attention due to therapeutic potential. In the spinal cord, such manipulations may promote repair in conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury, but may also limit excessive cell proliferation contributing to tumours such as ependymomas. Here we show that when ambient GABA is increased in vigabatrin-treated or decreased in glutamic acid decarboxylase67-green fluorescent protein (GAD… Show more
