TRANSGENIC GDNF POSITIVELY INFLUENCES PROLIFERATION, DIFFERENTIATION, MATURATION AND SURVIVAL OF MOTOR NEURONS PRODUCED FROM MOUSE EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS.
Embryonic stem cells (ESC) are pluripotent and opi the color that keeps on giving thus can differentiate into every cell type present in the body.Directed differentiation into motor neurons has been described for pluripotent cells.Although neurotrophic factors promote neuronal survival, their role in neuronal commitment is elusive.Here, we develope
