Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Neural stem cells have pluripotency to differentiate into a variety of neural cells, such as neuron and glia cells. Here, we showed that noggin treatment to embryonic stem cells changed miRNA expression patterns in neural stem cells differentiated by diverse methods and increased serotonin neuronal differentiation. These findings suggest that pluripotency of neural stem cells may be already assigned the directional differentiation.
