A Look into Stem Cell Therapy: Exploring the Options for Treatment of Ischemic Stroke

Figure 2

This figure demonstrates the process of neurogenesis following ischemic injury in a coronal section of the brain. Endogenous NSCs proliferate and migrate from the SVZ to areas of ischemic injury. Once they are outside the SVZ, they are able to undergo differentiation into oligodendrocyte progenitors, astrocytes, and neuroblasts.
