Embryonic stem cell-derived neural stem cells fuse with microglia and mature neurons.

Cusulin C, Monni E, Ahlenius H, Wood J, Brune J, Lindvall O, Kokaia Z (2012) Embryonic stem cell-derived neural stem cells fuse with microglia and mature neurons. Stem Cells 30:2657-2671. doi: 10.1002/stem.1227

Summary: The fusogenic role of microglia could be even more important after NSC transplantation into brains affected by neurodegenerative diseases associated with microglia activation.

Usage: Primary Cells and NS Cell Coculture. Seven to twelve days after plating primary cells, NS cells were plated on top (10,000 cells per cm2)  for 1–3 days. Rat primary cells were treated with 10 nM Mac-1-SAP or Mouse IgG-SAP during the 5 days prior to the coculture, and analyzed 3 days thereafter.

Related Products: Mac-1-SAP rat (Cat. #IT-33), Mouse IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-18)
