TAT-Bcl-xL improves survival of neuronal precursor cells in the lesioned striatum after focal cerebral ischemia

Cerebral ischemia activates endogenous neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the dentate gyrus. Consecutively, SVZ-derived neural precursors migrate towards ischemic lesions. However, functional relevance of activated neurogenesis is limited by poor survival of new-born precursors. We th...
