Research Abstract |
I succeeded in identification of the downstream effector of COUP-TFs and elucidation of the major molecular mechanisms underlying the neurogenic-to-gliogenic transition of developing neural stem cells. Furthermore, control of the effector enabled us to control the neural stem cell competence bi-directionally, neurogenic or gliogenic. These findings will greatly contribute to the clinical applications of neural stem cells for the treatment of CNS injury and disease.
