Figure 4. Generated neurons develop from proliferating cells in vitro.

Figure 4

In order to demonstrate that neurons develop from cells that previously underwent cell division in vitro BrdU uptake studies were performed (A). 65% of Hu c/d+ and nNOS+ cells had BrdU positive nuclei (B,C; white arrow heads), while 35% of neurons did show BrdU uptake (yellow arrow heads). This provides evidence that the cells derive from expanded progenitor cells.
