Schematic illustration of possible sources of stem cells for therapy in Parkinson's disease. 1) Neural stem cells (NSCs) from human fetal brain, expanded and differentiated to DA-ergic neurons; 2) Pluripotent cells generated from blastocysts (ESCs) or fibroblasts (iPSCs), expanded and differentiated to DA-ergic neurons; 3) DA-ergic neurons generated by direct conversion of fibroblasts; 4) Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).
