Neurogenesis and Pathogenesis of Glia: Immunological Studies

  • Conference paper
From Neuron to Action

Abstract

At present, it seems to be generally agreed that proteins play a major part in the growth, differentiation and dedifferentiation of a cell. Nevertheless, it is still not known what determines the differentiation of a cell in a specific direction, and what controls the normal growth of the cell, although some protein factors regulating mammalian cell growth are now well established. Furthermore, we do not know why the cell dedifferentiates. It is almost generally accepted that proteins bring it about, and that proteins play a key role in all of the biological processes, physiological as well as pathological, including cell dedifferentiation.
