Transplantation of Motoneuron-Enriched Neural Cells Derived from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells Improves Motor Function of Hemiplegic Mice

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are expected to be a potential donor source for neural transplantation. We have obtained motoneuron-enriched neural progenitor cells by culturing mouse ES cells with retinoic acid (RA). The cells also expressed mRNA of a neurotrophic factor, neurotrophin-3 (NT-3). The left...
