Neural Stem Cells

XCell manufactures our neural stem cells (NSCs) using the Rosette methodology and expands them to a defined passage for each lot. Each lot is compared with previous lots to ensure consistency of the product and ensure reproducibility for your experiments. Our comprehensive analysis include microarray analysis of gene expression, PCR, and immunocytochemistry as well as assessing differentiation into neurons and astrocytes. The cells are supplied with medium optimized  for the  propagation of the cells. Cells can be expanded for a limited number of passages without affecting their ability for tri-lineage differentiation.
 
Neurons derived from these NSC express cortical positional markers. To derive dopaminergic neurons or spinal motoneurons from NSC please discuss with our service representative
