Project description:Gene expression in NS5 murine neural stem cells was compared to that of astrocytes derived from NS5 cells via 3 days of treatment with foetal calf serum (FCS). Keywords: cell type comparison
Project description:Ectopic expression of the reprogramming factors OCT4, SOX2, or NANOG into human astrocytes in specific cytokine/culture conditions activated the neural stem gene program and induced generation of cells expressing neural stem/precursor markers. Here we compare the whole gene expression profile of primary human astrocytes (Astro) with neural stem cells (HNSC) derived from astrocytes reprogramming
