Patent Searching and Data


Title:
効率的で普遍的な多能性幹細胞から神経細胞への分化誘導方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012501194
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for inducing neural differentiation of stem cells. In more detail, the present invention relates to a method for inducing neural differentiation of stem cells by inhibiting both BMP (bone morphogenetic protein) and Activin/Nodal signaling pathways in the stem cells. The present invention allows all types of stem cells to effectively differentiate into neural precursor cells regardless of conventional methods for stem cell differentiation including floating culture and attachment culture, In addition, since the neural precursor cells induced by the present invention may be differentiated into specific cells ( e . g ., dopaminergic neurons) or oligodendrocytes in higher efficient manner, they may be applied to treatment of incurable nerve diseases ( e.g. , Parkinson's disease or spinal cordinjury) and further provide fundamental data on new drug development.
