Product Overview

Description

Rat enteric neural crest stem cells are isolated from intestinal tissue; neural crest stem cells (NCSC), namely peripheral nervous system stem cells, originate from the dorsal side of the neural tube in the embryonic stage, and are morphologically distinct from central nervous system stem cells In contrast, NCSCs express the low-affinity neurotrophic factor receptor p75NTR and fail to differentiate into oligodendrocytes, whereas CNS stem cells do the opposite. NCSC can differentiate into a variety of tissues in different parts, such as neurons, glia, melanocytes, endocrine cells, smooth muscle, skeletal muscle and bone, etc., among which it can specifically differentiate into neurons and glia in the enteric nervous system. NCSC, known as enteric neural crest stem cells (gut neural crest stem cells, GNCSC).

Application Notes

The in vitro culture period of primary cells is limited. It is recommended to use the special growth medium provided by Creative Biolabs and the correct handeling method to culture the cells, so as to ensure the best culture state of the cells.
