Proliferating neural stem/progenitor and oligodendrocyte precursor cell numbers

Older age decreases proliferating neural stem/progenitor and oligodendrocyte precursor cell numbers in rats.

“the numbers of proliferating NSPCs (Ki-67(+)nestin(+) cells) and proliferating OPCs (Ki-67(+)PDGFR-α(+) cells) remained lower in the older brains even at day 14.”
