The existence of neural stem cells (NSCs) in adult human brain neurogenic regions remains unresolved. To address this, we created a cell atlas the subventricular zone (SVZ) derived from fresh neurosurgical samples using single-cell transcriptomics. We discovered 2 radial glia (RG)-like populations, aRG1 and aRG2. shared features with fetal early RG (eRG) aRG2 were transcriptomically similar to outer (oRG). also captured neuronal oligodendrocytic NSC states. found that biological programs driven by their transcriptomes support roles as lineage NSCs. Finally, show these NSCs have potential transition between states along trajectories. These data reveal multipotent reside SVZ.

Summary The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a selectively permeable separating the periphery from central nervous system (CNS). BBB restricts flow of most material into and out CNS, including many drugs that could be used as potent therapies. permeability modulated by several cells are collectively called neurovascular unit (NVU). NVU consists specialized CNS endothelial (ECs), pericytes, astrocytes, microglia, neurons. ECs maintain complex “seal” via tight junctions, forming BBB; breakdown these junctions leads to disruption. Pericytes control vascular within capillaries help basal lamina. Astrocytes much has moved beyond EC layer can form secondary under inflammatory conditions. Microglia survey border for noxious material. Neuronal activity also plays role in maintenance BBB. Since neurons all able modulate BBB, understating contributions each member will potentially uncover novel effective methods delivery neurotherapies CNS.
