Christine Mennicke, NC State, “Methods for modeling cell proliferation and differentiation patterns in the neurogenesis-to-gliogenesis switch”

SAS 4201

Radial glial progenitors follow patterns of proliferation and differentiation to produce neurons and glia in the developing brain. The cells first undergo neurogenesis, producing neurons in a fairly deterministic manner, and then a portion of the cell population switches to producing glia. This neurogenesis-to-gliogenesis switch (NGS) and the patterns of cell division in gliogenesis are…
