Abstract

See full text

This invention provides pure populations of neural precursor cells, capable of differentiation into neurons, glial cells, and astrocytes. The populations are obtained by culturing stem cell populations (such as embryonic stem cells) in a cocktail of growth conditions that initiates differentiation, and establishes the neural precursor population. The precursors can be further differentiated in culture into a variety of different neural phenotypes. The neural precursors can be generated in pure form (at least 99%) and in large quantities for use in drug screening and the treatment of neurological disorders.
