Distribution Changes of Neural Precursor Cells in the Brain Stem of Tg(SOD1*G93A)1Gur Mice

Conclusions: The data suggest that NPCs widely distribute in the brain stem of adult TG mice can differentiate into astrocytes and migrate into damaged brain regions. This response might be a potential mechanism to repair degenerated motor neurons and restore dysfunctional neural circuitry in ALS.
