The meninges are membranous layers surrounding the central nervous system. In the head,
the meninges lie between the brain and the skull, and interact closely with both during …

Meninges are a three tissue membrane primarily known as coverings of the brain. More in
depth studies on meningeal function and ultrastructure have recently changed the view of …

Rapid progress is being made in understanding the roles of the cerebral meninges in the
maintenance of normal brain function, in immune surveillance, and as a site of disease. Most …

Neural stem cells (NSCs) exist throughout life in the ventricular–subventricular zone (V-SVZ)
of the mammalian forebrain. During aging NSC function is diminished through an unclear …

Increasing evidence shows that neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) can be activated in
the nonconventional neurogenic zones such as the cortex following ischemic stroke …

Presence of neural stem cells in adult mammalian brains, including human, has been clearly
demonstrated by several studies. The functional significance of adult neurogenesis is slowly …

In the central nervous system (CNS), a precise communication between the vascular and
neural compartments is essential for proper development and function. Recent studies …

Adult spinal cord has little regenerative potential, thus limiting patient recovery following
injury. In this study, we describe a new population of cells resident in the adult rat spinal cord …

The stem cell niche refers to a specific microenvironment where stem cells proliferate and
differentiate to produce new specialized cells throughout an organism's adulthood. Growth …

Whether new neurons are added in the postnatal cerebral cortex is still debated. Here, we
report that the meninges of perinatal mice contain a population of neurogenic progenitors …
