Estudio de Stanford descubre orígenes progenitores distintos para telencéfalo y rombencéfalo

Investigadores de la Universidad de Stanford anunciaron que su estudio, publicado en Nature Neuroscience, identificó poblaciones progenitoras distintas que dan origen por separado al telencéfalo y al rombencéfalo. El hallazgo, ya mencionado en informes de Nature, The Independent y Medical Xpress, contradice la visión tradicional de una única célula inicial para todo el cerebro y, según los autores, podría mejorar los modelos de laboratorio de enfermedades del tronco encefálico y facilitar la producción de neuronas específicas para la investigación.
