Restricted nature of adult neural stem cells: re-evaluation of their potential for brain repair.

Neural stem cells (NSCs) in the walls of the lateral ventricles continue to produce new neurons and oligodendrocytes throughout life. The identification of NSCs, long-range neuronal migration, and the integration of new neurons into fully formed mature neural circuits -- all in the juvenile or adul...
