Schneider et al., J Clin Invest 2005
(Brain Ischemia...) :
Surprisingly, the G-CSF receptor was also expressed by adult neural stem cells, and G-CSF induced neuronal differentiation in vitro
Schneider et al., Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.) 2005
:
Moreover, G-CSF stimulates neuronal differentiation of adult neural stem cells in the brain, and improves long-term recovery in more chronic stroke models
Piao et al., Differentiation 2012
:
We also observe that SCF and G-CSF promote neuronal differentiation and inhibit astroglial differentiation at the early stage of differentiation ... This coordination effect of SCF+G-CSF on cell cycle arrest and neuronal differentiation is through enhancing neurogenin 1 (Ngn1) activity
