Not exact matches

One of the team's most exciting new observations suggests a link between autism and a type of neural stem cell called outer - radial glia (oRGs), discovered by the Kriegstein lab in 2010.

oRG stem cells are extremely rare in mice, but common in primates, and look and behave quite differently from familiar ventricular radial glia.

The stem cell closely resembles the radial glial cell in structure and behavior and, like the radial glia, has radial fibers which newborn neurons migrate along up to the neocortex.

In 2010, Kriegstein's lab discovered a new type of neural stem cell in the human brain, which they dubbed outer radial glia (oRGs) because these cells reside farther away from the nurturing ventricles, in an outer layer of the subventricular zone (oSVZ).
