Summary
Medical News Today reports researchers have used human adult neural stem cell to grow myelin in mice:
"Scientists in the US have used human cells that behave like stem cells to help "shiverer" mice grow myelin around their nerve fibres and thereby avoid an inevitable early death and poor quality of life; the researchers hope their finding will one day lead to treatments for similar neurological conditions in humans, and children especially."
