Neural stem/progenitor cells (NPCs) are present in the developing and adult central nervous system. NPC apoptosis is an important aspect of normal brain development. We show that tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) receptor 2 is highly expressed on human NPCs derived from

## Abstract Embryonic stem cell (ESC)βderived products have emerged as a promising cell source for neuroregeneration. C17.2 neural precursor cells were noted to express genes of neurotrophins and neuroprotective factors and to be enable to enhance proliferation, neuritogenesis, and differentiation
## Abstract A reliable method to induce neural progenitor/stem cells (NPCs) into dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons has not yet been established. As well, the mechanism involved remains to be elucidated. To induce DAergic differentiation from NPCs, a cytokine mixture (CβMix) of interleukin (IL)β1Ξ², ILβ
## Abstract Methylglyoxal (MG) is a reactive dicarbonyl compound endogenously produced mainly from glycolytic intermediates. Elevated MG levels in diabetes patients are believed to contribute to diabetic complications. MG is cytotoxic through induction of apoptosis. Curcumin, the yellow pigment of
