Stem Cell Related Patent Number US6787355

Title:Multipotent neural stem cells from peripheral tissues and uses thereof
Inventors:Miller, Freda D.; Montreal, Canada
Gloster, Andrew; Saskatoon, Canada
Toma, Jean; Montreal, Canada
Summary:Described herein are isolated precursor cells containing sensory receptors. The invention relates to multipotent neural stem cells, purified from the peripheral nervous system of mammals, capable of differentiating into neural and non-neural cell types. Claims of the invention describe the stem cells as providing an accessible source for autologous transplantation into CNS, PNS, and other damaged tissues. Therapeutic applications are included, such as in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, stroke and spinal cord injury.
