From: Engraftment of enteric neural progenitor cells into the injured adult brain
In vitro characterization of multipotent, self-renewing progenitor cells from the postnatal ENS. Enteric neurospheres derived from Actb-DsRed mouse colon express red fluorescent protein (A). Enteric neuronal stem/progenitor cells (ENSCs) within those neurospheres differentiate into neurons (B) and glia (C) that retain DsRed expression. Immunohistochemical characterization shows that cells within the neurospheres express markers of neural progenitors (Sox2, D; P75, E), enteric neurons (Tuj1, F), and glial cells (GFAP, G)
