The neural stem cells are primary precursors that can self-renew and generate differentiated neurons and glia. Such cells were cultured from adult nervous system. They were identified in the subventricular zone, hippocampus, spinal cord, ependyma and even were cultured from astrocytes. These cells are key players in the formation of the nervous system during development and they hold important clues for brain repair.
神经干细胞是能够自我更新并产生分化神经元和神经胶质细胞的主要前体细胞。此类细胞是从成体神经系统中培养出来的。它们在脑室下区、海马体、脊髓、室管膜中被识别出来,甚至可以从星形胶质细胞中培养得到。这些细胞是神经系统发育过程中的关键参与者,并且为脑修复提供了重要线索。
