TBC1D3 promotes neural progenitor proliferation by suppressing the histone methyltransferase G9a – Science Advances

INTRODUCTION The expansion of the cerebral cortex during primate evolution is assumed to be associated with the acquisition of higher intelligence especially in the human species (1, 2). This process involves increased proliferative ability of cortical neural progenitors (NPs), including the ventricular radial glial cells (vRGs), the intermediate progenitors, and basal or outer RGs (bRGs or oRGs) (3, 4), which give rise to neurons or glia cells directly or indirectly.

Scientists are a step closer to developing ‘smart’ stem cells and they’re made from human fat – UNSW Newsroom

A new type of stem cell that is, a cell with regenerative abilities could be closer on the horizon, a new study led by UNSW Sydney shows. The stem cells (called induced multipotent stem cells, or iMS) can be made from easily accessible human cells in this case, fat and reprogrammed to act as stem cells. The results of the animal study, which created human stem cells and tested their effectiveness in mice, werepublished online in Science Advances today and while the results are encouraging, more research and tests are needed before any potential translation to human therapies.
