Research Abstract |
NG2 is one of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. NG2+ cells are abundant in the adult brain. The function of NG2+ cells is not clear, but it is suggested that NG2+ cells can be multi-potent in in vitro culture system. In this study, I analyzed the function of NG2+ cells in vivo. Because previous studies show that excessive neuronal excitation induce proliferation of NG2+ cells, I analyzed and compared responses of NG2+ cells and endogenous neural stem/precursors against neuronal excitation in the seizure model mice. Present study showed that these precursors exhibit differential responses in terms of cell cycle progression.
