Abstract Background Robo1, Robo2 and Rig-1 (Robo3), members of the Robo protein family, are candidate receptors for the chemorepellents Slit and are known to play a crucial role in commissural axon...

Generation of neural crest-derived peripheral neurons and floor plate cells from mouse and primate embryonic stem cells

Mizuseki, Kenji, Sakamoto, Tatsunori, Watanabe, Kiichi, Muguruma, Keiko, Ikeya, Makoto, Nishiyama, Ayaka, ...

To understand the range of competence of embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived neural precursors, we have examined in vitro differentiation of mouse and primate ES cells into the dorsal- (neural crest)...

Embryonic stem (ES) cells differentiate into neuroectodermal progenitors when cultured as floating aggregates in serum-free conditions. Here, we show that strict removal of exogenous patterning...
