Endothelial cells regulate astrocyte to neural progenitor cell trans-differentiation in a mouse model of stroke

Damaged brains try to repair themselves by producing neurons in areas where neurogenesis does not normally occur. Here, the authors show that brain endothelial cells provide microvesicle-encased signals that convert parenchymal astrocytes into neural progenitors, thus improving outcomes after stroke...
