Abstract
Human neural stem cells (hNSC) are multipotent adult stem cells. Various studies are underway worldwide to identify new methods for treatment of neurological diseases using hNSC. This chapter summarizes the latest research trends in and fields for application of patient-specific hNSC using direct phenotypic conversion technology. The aim of the study was to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of current technology and to suggest relevant directions for future hNSC research.Entities:
