Abstract

Therapy based on stem cells utilizes these cells in neurodegeneration, brain/spinal cord injury, and much recently in repairing of severe heart diseases. Owning to their stemness, these cells are the potential source of progenitors that can offer a therapeutic remedy to a variety of diseases and/or disorders. The ability of these cells to regenerate and differentiate into specified phenotypes has great utility in tissue regeneration applications. This chapter provides a detailed account for isolation of neural stem cells from the mice embryo. Furthermore, the fabrication of chitosan-tripolyphosphate/hyaluronic acid-based nanoparticles and evaluating their efficiency in inducing transfection in the isolated neural stem cells as an approach for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.
