2013, Brain Research BulletinCitation Excerpt :The expression of both the neuronal (NeuN, β3-tubulin) and GABAergic (GAD67, GABA) markers was increased in the presence of Mash1 overexpression in the differentiated BMSCs cultures. GABA, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the nervous system, synthesized by the GAD65/67 enzymes, expressed in GABAergic neurons (Westmoreland et al., 2001). We investigated the immunoreactivity of this marker and found a higher proportion of GABA-positive neurons in the Mash1-overexpressed differentiated BMSCs compared to controls.
Modeling Huntington's disease with induced pluripotent stem cells
2013, Molecular and Cellular NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :After EB generation, morphogens such as RA are added to induce neural patterning (Bain et al., 1995), after which cells are plated to induce GABAergic specification (Strubing et al., 1995). Similar to the EB method, the monolayer protocol utilizes patterning morphogens, such as FGF, in defined concentrations and for specific periods of time to induce GABAergic specification (Westmoreland et al., 2001). This methodology is thought to generate neural cells more efficiently than other methods as the media and conditions are more defined and likely more closely recapitulate neural development (Abranches et al., 2009).

2013, Handbook of Stem CellsExogenous GDNF increase the migration of the neural stem cells with no protection against kainic acid-induced excitotoxic cell death in rats
2012, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :The overexpressed GDNF induces genes regulating the migration and differentiation of neural progenitor cells (Jens et al., 2004). These stem cell-derived neurons express the GAD-67 protein or GABA, thereby identifying them as GABAergic neurons (Sabine et al., 2005; Xiaoxiao et al., 2005; Joby et al., 2001; Hiroki et al., 2000; Jonathan et al., 1998). Therefore, the enhanced GAD-67 expression observed in the Ad-GDNF-NSCs-treated rats is believed to be attributable to the differentiation of NSCs, a process which is facilitated by the overexpressed GDNF (Fig. 4J–L).
