HighQC™ Rat Neuronal (Trans-Differentiated) Stem Cell

Description

HighQC™ Rat Neuronal (Trans‑Differentiated) Stem Cells (R‑NTSCs) are derived from defined regions of postnatal rat brain tissues, including the subventricular zone and hippocampal neurogenic niches, through well‑defined in vitro trans‑differentiation protocols employing combinations of growth factors and small molecules that induce conversion of non‑neuronal precursors toward a neural lineage. These cells exhibit adherent growth with bipolar or multipolar morphology typical of neural lineage commitment and radial glia‑like protrusions in vitro. Under directed differentiation conditions, R‑NTSCs show upregulated expression of mature neuronal markers such as MAP2 and NeuN, and demonstrate electrophysiological properties consistent with neuronal functionality, including the ability to fire action potentials in vitro. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from mycoplasma, fungi, yeast, and bacteria.
