A research team at UC San Francisco has discovered an RNA molecule called Pnky that can be manipulated to increase the production of neurons from neural stem cells . The research, led by neurosurgeon Daniel A. Lim, MD, PhD, and published in Cell Stem Cell , has possible applications in regenerative medicine, including treatments of such disorders as Alzheimer's disease , Parkinson's disease and traumatic brain injury , and in cancer treatment.
