Proliferation and committed differentiation into dopamine neurons of neural stem cells induced by the active ingredients of radix astragali

In conclusion, our study verifies that the active ingredients of radix astragali can promote the proliferation of NSCs and induce NSC differentiation toward DA neurons in vitro. These phenomena may occur through upregulation of Shh, Nurr1, and Ptx3 in the process of drug treatment.
