... -BB and induced to differentiate by the removal of PDGF and addition of bFGF (23) , we initially replated undifferentiated MAPCs at 10,000 cells per cm2 on fibronectin-coated plates or chamberslides, removed epidermal growth factor, PDGF, and leukemia inhibitory factor, and added 100 ng/ml bFGF.

... In contrast, after day 5, spiking cells represented between 71% and 100% of cells studied at each time period. Voltage-clamp experiments showed that spiking MAPCs expressed a rapidly inactivating inward current.

... Differentiation of marrow pluripotent stem cells to neuron-like cells follows similar developmental steps as described for ES cells and NSCs. Similar to neurons derived from NSCs or ES cells in vitro, in vitro-differentiated MAPCs also exhibit electrophysiological characteristics of neurons.

... Rodent or human neuroprogenitors can also be expanded with epidermal growth factor alone, while undergoing initial -differentiation to astrocytes and oligodendrocytes but less neuronal cells, or bFGF alone, while undergoing initial differentiation to neurons and to a lesser extent glia (41~. We demonstrate here that differentiation of mMAPCs to cells with neuroectodermal characteristics occurs by initial culture in the presence of bFGF as the sole cytokine, and that this is associated with the activation of transcription factors known to be important in neural commitment in viva and differentiation from NSCs and mES cells in vitro.
