GABAergic interneuron transplants to study development and treat disease

Highlights • Cortical GABAergic interneurons migrate tangentially from the subcortical forebrain into the cerebral cortex. • Transplants of cortical interneuron precursors migrate extensively after engraftment into a variety of CNS tissues. • This ability to integrate post-transplant is being applie...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Cortical GABAergic interneurons migrate tangentially from the subcortical forebrain into the cerebral cortex. • Transplants of cortical interneuron precursors migrate extensively after engraftment into a variety of CNS tissues. • This ability to integrate post-transplant is being applied to the study of aspects of development and excitingly to the development of cell-based therapies for a variety of CNS disorders.
