Extracellular nucleotide signaling in adult neural stem cells: synergism with growth factor-mediated cellular proliferation.

We have previously shown that the extracellular nucleoside triphosphate-hydrolyzing enzyme NTPDase2 is highly expressed in situ by stem/progenitor cells of the two neurogenic regions of the adult murine brain: the subventricular zone (type B cells) and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus (residual ...
