Neural progenitor cells have been isolated from the embryonic central nervous system (CNS) of several mammalian species. These exhibit properties of immature cells, including expression of the intermediate filament protein Nestin, the ability to self renew, and to give rise to terminally differentia

Background: Adrenomedullary chromaffin cells are neural crest derivatives widely used as a model system to study neurosecretory mechanisms. Morphological, immunohistochemical, and functional data indicate that chromaffin cells are heterogeneous and support the distinction between adrenaline (A)-and
Androgens have significant beneficial effects on the skeleton. However, studies on the effects of androgens on osteoblasts are limited due to the absence of appropriate model systems that combine completeness of the osteoblastic phenotype, rapid proliferation rate, and stable expression of the andro
