Neural stem cells are undifferentiated, self-renewing and multipotent cells. They have the ability to differentiate into neuronal neurons, oligodendrocytes, and astrocytes. They are found in abundance throughout the central nervous system (CNS). Neural stem cell transplantation can help repair and replenish damaged oligodendrocytes, as well as other brain tissue
