Research Abstract |
The discovery of neurogenesis in adult mammalian brains showed the possible application of neural stem cells (NSCs) to regenerative medicine of the nervous system. In this study, we tried to elucidate the physiological functions of two proteins that we had identified as regulators of NSCs, namely the RNA-binding protein Musashi-1 and the sugar chain-binding secretory protein Galectin-1, in adult mammalian brains. We also established a transgenic mouse system ("Color Timer") for visualizing neurogenesis with fluorescence.
