The lateral walls of the forebrain lateral ventricles are the
richest source of stem cells in the adult mammalian brain. These stem
cells give rise to new olfactory neurons that are renewed throughout
life. The neurons originate in the subventricular zone (SVZ), migrate
within the rostral extension (RE) of the SVZ along the rostral
migratory stream (RMS) within tube-like structures formed of glial
cells, to eventually reach the olfactory bulb (OB). We demonstrate
that, contrary to the current view, multipotential (neuronal-astroglial-oligodendroglial) precursors with stem cell features can be isolated not only from the SVZ but also from the entire
RE, including the distal portion within the OB. Specifically, these
stem cells do not derive from the migratory neuroblasts coming from the
SVZ. Interestingly, stem cells isolated from the proximal RE generate
significantly more oligodendrocytes, and those from the distal RE
proliferate significantly more slowly than stem cells derived from the
SVZ and other RE regions. These findings demonstrate that stem cells
are not confined to the forebrain periventricular region and indicate
that stem cells endowed with different functional characteristics occur
at different levels of the SVZ-RE pathway.
