Departamento de Neurociencias, Instituto de Fisiologia Celular, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico D F 04510, Mexico
Int J Dev Neurosci 27:493-500. 2009..Our results suggest that estradiol should be useful in producing higher proportions of dopamine neurons from embryonic stem cells aimed for treating Parkinson's disease...
GABA effects during neuronal differentiation of stem cellsPatricia Salazar
Departamento de Neurociencias, Instituto de Fisiologia Celular, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, AP 70 253, Mexico, DF, 04510, Mexico
Neurochem Res 33:1546-57. 2008..GABA effects in these cells are very similar to those found in embryonic cortical precursor cells, and therefore it is possible that this amino acid has important roles during adult brain plasticity...- Histamine induces neural stem cell proliferation and neuronal differentiation by activation of distinct histamine receptorsAnayansi Molina-Hernández

Instituto de Fisiologia Celular Neurociencias, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico, Mexico
PLoS ONE 7:e43797. 2012..Activin A is a protein that participates principally in reproductive functions. In the adult brain, Activin is neuroprotective, but its role in brain development is still elusive... - Axon responses of embryonic stem cell-derived dopaminergic neurons to semaphorins 3A and 3CElisa Tamariz
Instituto de Neurobiologia, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Queretaro, Mexico
J Neurosci Res 88:971-80. 2010..The observations reported here show phenotypic similarities between VM-TH(+) and ES-TH(+) neurons and suggest that semaphorins 3A and 3C could be employed to guide axons of grafted ES-TH(+) in therapeutic protocols for PD... - Activated Notch1 is a stronger astrocytic stimulus than leukemia inhibitory factor for rat neural stem cellsNidia S Rodríguez-Rivera
Departamento de Neurociencias, Instituto de Fisiologia Celular, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico
Int J Dev Biol 53:947-53. 2009..These experiments show that cells stimulated with NICD differentiate more readily to astrocytes than LIF-treated NSC... - Therapeutic potential of motor neurons differentiated from embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cellsRodrigo López-González
Instituto de Fisiologia Celular Neurociencias, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, DF, Mexico
Arch Med Res 43:1-10. 2012..This review summarizes MN differentiation protocols from ES and iPS cells in regard to neuronal differentiation efficiency, expression of MN markers and functional properties in vitro, as well as their therapeutic effects after grafting... - Expression of LPP3 in Bergmann glia is required for proper cerebellar sphingosine-1-phosphate metabolism/signaling and developmentAlejandro López-Juárez
Instituto de Fisiologia Celular, Division de Neurociencias, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico City, Mexico
Glia 59:577-89. 2011..Altogether our data indicate that LPP3 participates in several aspects of neuron-glia communication required for proper cerebellum development... - Histamine up-regulates fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 and increases FOXP2 neurons in cultured neural precursors by histamine type 1 receptor activation: conceivable role of histamine in neurogenesis during cortical development in vivoAnayansi Molina-Hernández
Instituto de Fisiologia Celular Neurociencias, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico, D F 04510, Mexico

Departamento de Neurociencias, Instituto de Fisiologia Celular, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico D F 04510, Mexico
Cell Transplant 18:1171-81. 2009..In contrast, WT rats analyzed at the same age possessed grafted GFP-positive MN in their spinal cords. These results strongly suggest that the transgenic hSOD1(G93A) environment is detrimental to grafted MN in the long term... - Progesterone and 17β-estradiol increase differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells to motor neuronsRodrigo López-González
Instituto de Fisiologia Celular Neurociencias, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico
IUBMB Life 63:930-9. 2011..Furthermore, the effect of estradiol was mediated by specific activation of ER-α... - Activin and TGF-β effects on brain development and neural stem cellsGriselda Rodríguez-Martínez
