## Abstract Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) during long‐term culture acquire chromosomal changes similar to those occurring in tumorigenesis. This was raised concerns about the progression from hESCs to malignant cells. This study aimed to investigate the changes in chromosomes, cell phenotype,
## Abstract In vitro expanded neural precursor cells (NPCs) may provide a stable source for cell therapy. In search of the optimal cell source for spinal cord repair, we investigated influences of gestational age, regional heterogeneity, and long‐term in vitro propagation. The cellular content of n
The maintenance of hemopoietic precursors in long-term liquid bone marrow cultures (LTBMC) is associated with the presence of an adherent stromal layer composed of heterogeneous cell populations. We have used a culture assay to promote the growth of one of its cellular components and characterize it
Neurofibromas, the hallmark of neurofibromatosis 1, are composed mainly of Schwann cells and fibroblasts. Inactivation of both NF1 alleles is the cause of these benign tumors, but it is unknown which cell type is the progenitor. In this study, we selectively cultured Schwann cells from an NF1-associ
