Figure 1: Differentiation of Neural Stem Cells into Neurons and Astrocytes during the Process of Bra

Caption

In the process of fetal brain development, neural stem cells generate both neurons and astrocytes. Neurons are formed first (left) and astrocytes later (right). The present study has revealed the cell fate switch from neurons to astrocytes to be FGF signaling.
