Figure 8.

Regenerative potential of meningeal neural progenitors. In the upper panel image, the human brain meninges exposed during neurosurgery. Meningeal neural progenitors can be isolated from meningeal samples by mechano-enzymatic dissociation and in vitro cultured. Meningeal neural stem cells (NSCs) can be expanded in vitro and subsequently differentiated into oligodendrocytes and neurons (light microscope images in the lower panel). Meningeal NSCs can potentially be used for regenerative medicine in autologous graft setting. Scale bars are 20 µm.
