Embryonic development of the cerebral cortex: a primer. The development of the cerebral cortex can be divided into several stages (see figure). 1.Patterning: The basic plan of the mammalian brain is laid out at the neural plate stage. At this stage, signaling centers that surround the neural...
2. Systemic administration of AAVs, such as AAV93,4,5,6, allows noninvasive gene delivery, particularly in large or distributed biological structures7, but access to the brain from the periphery is restricted by the blood-brain barrier (BBB), a complex biological...

The nervous, or neural tissue, is the main tissue component of the nervous system. The nervous tissue occurs 1) centrally (brain and spinal cord), and 2) peripherally (nerves). The neural tissue is composed of two main types of cells- each type ...
The different functions of osteoblastic and vascular niches aren’t yet known. A difference between the two niches is the oxygen level: vascular niche presents a higher oxygen level than osteoblastic niche. In this conditions, cells resume their cell cycle, undergoing mitosis[75]. Furthermore, a...
upon stimulation by pathogens or dysfunctional cells, by immune cells of the periphery as well as cells of the central nervous system such as microglia, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes. Moreover, also neurons can release cytokines and chemokines as well as respond to them through cytokine and chemokine...
Identify the neuroglial cell from its function: Phagocytic cells of the CNSNeuroglial Cells:The three functions of the nervous system are: sensory function, integrative function and motor function. Sensory receptors detect internal stimuli, integrative processes signal information and motor ...
The cell-of-origin (COO) of EGFRvIII-glioma was not the focus of this study but warrants further investigation. The COO of gliomas is unknown, yet evidence suggests that neural stem cells, oligodendrocyte precursors, and astrocytes can all act as the COO [97, 98]. A species differences ...
The cells responsible for the transmission of nerve impulses are: a. neurons b. oligodendrocytes c. astrocytes d. microglia Select the correct answer. Schwann cells are a type of glial cell found in the nervous system. In addition to the conduction of nerve impulses, the oute...
