Signaling Pathways Controlling Neural Stem Cells Slow Progressive Brain Disease.

The article discusses research being done on the relationship between stem cell survival and dopamine neurons and the effects of signaling pathways on the regeneration of brain diseases and in other tissues. The researchers discovered the interaction between insulin and Notch receptors to control the signaling cascade which is fundamental to cell growth. According to them, stem cell survival and dopamine neurons have regenerative effects in brain diseases.
