The study was designed to compare whether and how muscle fibroblasts (FIB) and muscle stem cells (MYO) interact with motor neurons. Moreover, we aimed to investigate whether muscle cells, isolated from lifelong exercisers, exerted a protective and supportive effect on motor neurons. These object...

Species-specific progenitor domain extends neurogenesis and increases motor neuron production
Downregulation of expression and activity levels of the astroglial glutamate transporter EAAT2 is thought to be implicated in motor neuron excitotoxicity in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We previously reported that EAAT2 is cleaved by caspase-3 at the cytosolic C-terminus domain, impairing th...

Combinatorial transcription codes generate the myriad of cell types during development, and thus likely provide crucial insights into directed differentiation of stem cells to a specific cell type. The LIM-complex composed of Isl1 and Lhx3 directs the specification of spinal motor neurons (MNs) in e...

Branchiomotor neurons are an important class of cranial motor neurons that innervate the branchial-arch-derived muscles of the face, jaw and neck. They arise in the ventralmost progenitor domain of the rhombencephalon characterized by expression of the homeodomain transcription factors Nkx2.2 and Ph...

Human pluripotent stem cells are a promising source of diverse cells for developmental studies, cell transplantation, disease modeling, and drug testing. However, their widespread use even for intensely studied cell types like spinal motor neurons, is hindered by the long duration and low yields of...
